Company profile
researched Aug 2026Fountain of Scale, operating at curiousaddys.com, is a done-for-you business automation service aimed at small business owners. Rather than selling software for customers to configure themselves, the company designs, deploys, runs and maintains automation workflows on the client's behalf, tailored to the client's existing tone, channels and processes. The stated premise is that the average small business owner spends 15 or more hours a week on repeatable tasks, and that automating that layer recovers those hours and prevents inbound leads from going unanswered.
The service covers lead capture and response, scheduled follow-ups, missed-call follow-up, review replies, inquiry handling, appointment/viewing confirmation and inventory tracking, packaged by industry vertical: property managers, HVAC contractors, home service contractors, real estate agents, restaurants and beverage shops. A separate "website replacement" offering rebuilds a client's site from scratch on Webflow, preserving the existing design and URLs, with a stated deploy time of three to five days and code ownership by the client rather than platform lock-in. Clients receive daily or weekly summaries of what the automations executed, and the company handles ongoing updates and fixes when requirements change.
Founding story
The founders present the company as an application of operating experience from prior startups, saying they learned internally which functions should be automated versus staffed and now apply that approach to entire roles at other companies: identifying repeatable work, building the system, and reserving humans for work requiring judgment.
Business model
Service-based rather than self-serve software: the company positions itself as "not a platform, not a chatbot," treating each customer as a client for whom it designs, operates and maintains the automation system. Engagements begin free with no credit card and no contract, with the company building an initial system before any commitment and asking for feedback in return, limited to a small number of early partners.
Onboarding is offered free of charge for an initial cohort of partners, with feedback requested in place of payment; no pricing beyond this free entry offer is stated.
Traction
The company states it is accepting a limited number of first partners on a free-to-start basis; no customer counts or revenue figures are disclosed.
▸Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market
Market position
Early-stage service provider serving small local businesses, explicitly differentiating itself from automation platforms and chatbot vendors, and currently onboarding a limited initial group of partners.
Positioned against self-configured automation tools and chatbots: the company argues most tools take weeks to configure and still do not fit, so it takes on setup, operation, maintenance and adjustments itself, builds every workflow custom to the client's tone and channels, and provides recurring activity summaries. The website replacement product emphasizes client-owned code and no platform lock-in versus designer queues, developer dependency and multi-day update cycles.
Technology
Custom-built automation workflows spanning lead response, follow-up, review replies and inventory tracking across a client's existing channels. Website rebuilds are delivered on Webflow with a stated three-to-five-day deployment.
Go-to-market
Direct acquisition through the company website, with industry-specific solution pages that let prospects self-identify and a free-to-start offer (no credit card, no contract) framed as limited spots for the first few partners; the site also runs a blog.
Small business owners and operators in service-heavy local industries, specifically property managers, HVAC contractors, home service contractors, real estate agents, restaurants and beverage shops, plus businesses seeking to replace an existing website.
