Get Your AI Working For You

Show up with your laptop. Leave with a personal AI that works for you — on a schedule, by itself.

What people leave with A brief at six every morning — what came in overnight, four lines, before you are up.
Sunday night it files the week of receipts and tells you which ones are missing.
Monday it reads what changed at the three places you keep an eye on.
First of the month it builds the report you have been building by hand for years.

Everybody gets the chatting part in ten minutes, then stops at the part that actually pays: the connectors, the permissions, the sign-ins and the settings, and the standing schedule that makes the thing run without being asked. That is the wall, and it is a bad one to hit alone. So bring the laptop you actually use, pick one of the four below, and sit down next to somebody who has set these up a few hundred times. You push every button — every approve, every allow, every permission is yours. It runs on your machine, on your account. You leave with one real job running on its own.

  • Bring a laptop, not a phone — all four are desktop apps. They run on your own machine, under your own account, and nothing gets installed on ours.
  • You push every button — every approve, every allow, every sign-in. We never take the keyboard and we never ask for a password.
  • You leave with it scheduled — not a list of steps to try later at home. It runs once in front of you before you go.
  • One hour, $20, paid after — no subscription, nothing to cancel, and nothing to pay until the work is done.
Claude CoworkAnthropic’s desktop agent. Give it a folder on your laptop, a set of skills and a standing time to run, and it works while you are doing something else.
ChatGPT Work or CodexOpenAI’s. Work reaches your files, your mail and your calendar; Codex does the same for anything that looks like code. Take whichever fits your week.
Grok BotSpaceXAI’s agent teammates. You hand one a standing job and a time, and it reports back with what it found.
Gemini with SparkGoogle’s. Spark is the agent inside Gemini, and it is the shortest trip if your mail, calendar and documents already live at Google.
Those four, and nothing elseThis one is strict: one of the four above, as an app on a laptop. Not a phone, not a tablet, not Copilot. Anything else you own is still welcome at the lab — just not at this price.
Book This Deal

Offer ends Wednesday, September 30. $20 flat, paid after your appointment — never before.

Your appointment is private, and there are no walk-ins. There is no room full of people here. You booked the hour, so the hour is yours — one technician, one person, working on your account and your device the whole time. That is also why we cannot take walk-ins: the technician you would be walking in on is already sitting with somebody.

How it works

Book it, come in, do it, then pay

Same arrangement as everything else we do. Nothing happens on a video call and nothing gets paid for in advance.

Book your appointment

Free, and it takes under a minute. Booked appointments only — no walk-ins.

Come to your appointment

Face-to-face at the lab on Jessen Ln. Never Zoom.

Do your deal

One technician, one person: you. Hands on your own device the whole time.

Pay after

Never before. The work gets done, then you pay.

Questions

Before you book

What actually happens in the hour?

You bring your laptop and we pick one job worth handing over. Then we set it up together: the app itself if it is not installed yet, the connectors it needs, the skills or the plugin, the permissions, and the schedule that makes it run on its own. You drive and we sit beside you. Before you leave it runs once, in front of you, so you can watch it work.

Which AI can I pick?

One of four: Claude Cowork from Anthropic, ChatGPT Work or Codex from OpenAI, Grok Bot from SpaceXAI, or Gemini with Spark from Google. At this price it is those four and nothing else, and it has to be the app on a laptop — not a phone and not a tablet. Charleston AI is vendor-agnostic and will happily work on whatever else you own, Microsoft Copilot included. That is a regular appointment at the lab, not this $20 one.

Who pushes the buttons?

You do. Every approve, every allow, every permission, every sign-in. We never take the keyboard and we never ask you for a password. That is deliberate: it is your account and your machine, and you should be the only person who has ever signed into either.

What is a scheduled task?

A job your AI does at a time you set, without being asked. Every Sunday night it reads the week of receipts and files them. Every morning at six it reads what came in overnight and leaves you four lines. On the first of the month it builds the report you have been building by hand for years. That is the thing you leave with.

I have never used any of these. Is that a problem?

No — that is exactly who this is for. The best way to learn AI is to use AI, and you will learn more in one hour on your own laptop doing your own work than in a week of watching other people do it.

What should I bring?

The laptop you actually use, and the ability to sign in to it. If the AI is going to reach your mail, your calendar or your files, you will be signing into those too — so bring your phone if that is where the codes land.

Does it run in the cloud?

The agent runs on your laptop, under your account, and your files stay where they are. It still talks to its own lab for the thinking part, the same way the app does when you use it normally. What it does not do is live on somebody else’s server with a copy of your folder in it. Nothing is installed on our machines and we keep no copy of anything.

When does the offer end?

The appointment has to happen on or before Wednesday, September 30, 2026. After that this deal comes off the site and the regular rates apply, so book the hour rather than meaning to.

What if I do not know what to automate?

Most people do not, and that is fine — working it out is part of the hour. Bring the thing you do every week that you resent doing. Reading the overnight email. Filing receipts. Checking the same four pages. Writing the same report. One of those will turn out to be the easy one, and that is the one we set up.

Are the prices really flat?

Yes. Twenty dollars is the whole price, and you pay after the work is done — never before. There is no upsell waiting at the end and there is no subscription attached to it.

Can I just walk in?

No. Booked appointments only. The technician you would be walking in on is already sitting with somebody else — this is one technician and one person for the whole hour, so it has to be reserved. Booking takes under a minute.

Is this a class?

No. There is no room full of people, no slides and no curriculum. You pick the thing you want running and the two of you build it on your own device. If you would rather have an actual lesson, Charleston AI teaches private one-on-one classes on any topic at sixty dollars an hour — that is a different appointment on the main site.

Where are you?

The lab at 405 Jessen Ln, Suite E, Charleston, SC 29492 — off Clements Ferry on Daniel Island. Every appointment is face-to-face here. Never Zoom.

Do you serve outside Charleston?

No. We only work in Charleston — every appointment happens at the lab and we like it that way. If you are outside the Charleston metro, we are not the right fit.

How do I pay?

After. Consult, class, diagnosis, build or repair — the work happens first, then you pay for it.

Ready when you are

Booking is free and takes under a minute. We propose the time, you confirm, you pay after.
