Mark builds it and answers the phone
Columbia Falls. One person. No agency layers.
I am Mark. I live in the Flathead Valley and I build fast, findable sites for small businesses around here.

Why BeargrassAI exists
I am Mark. We live in the Flathead Valley, and I build AI-discoverable websites with the Agent built in, for small businesses around here.
I started BeargrassAI because small businesses in rural Montana deserve technology that actually works. Fast sites. Accurate information in every place a customer might check. An Agent that gives real answers instead of making them up. And the person who built it should pick up the phone when you call.
Every client site runs through the same five-step process. Every Agent runs on the same approved-facts discipline. Every site runs on hardware and software I manage myself, from the Flathead Valley.
The client list is deliberately small. Depth over volume. The shops in the portfolio include a guitar builder, a veterinary practice, a service-trades crew, and a few publishers. Each one is a real relationship, not a case study.
Background.
Where the work comes from
Before BeargrassAI I spent years building systems for big companies. Some specifics that matter for what I do now:
Moved and rebuilt 180 websites in three months for a national company. I know how to work at scale and hit deadlines.
Building practical AI tools for real businesses since 2023. Not demos, but working systems.
Years in quality assurance. Making sure what is published online is accurate and can be trusted. That is exactly what a small-business site needs.
In tech since 2017. Long enough to know what works. Short enough to remember when something is hype.
I left corporate to build something of my own, in a place I love, for people I can sit down and have coffee with.
Made in Montana, by the person who answers the phone.
Simple.
Made in Montana
Made in Montana is not a flag on the footer. It is where the work happens, where the phone is answered, and where the maintenance runs from. The Flathead is home. Customers who come here for a week each summer already know the valley has craftsmen who finish the work. BeargrassAI sits in that tradition, just with a different toolkit.
Say hello.
Thirty minutes, no charge
I answer every message myself. Or read a few articles in the Learn library before we talk.
