Our Story

About EPIC AI

We build AI chatbots, automation systems, and custom software that help businesses run better. Founded by operators who got tired of doing the same manual work every day.

Built by Operators

EPIC AI started inside a real hospitality and attractions business in Colorado. We weren't building software to sell—we were building it to solve our own problems. Daily reports, booking management, staff communication, payroll prep. The stuff that eats up hours every week.

Turned Into a Company

Other business owners kept asking what tools we were using. Turned out the systems we built for ourselves could help others too. Now we build the same kind of practical, time-saving software for businesses across industries.

What We Believe

Software should solve real problems

We don't build technology for technology's sake. Every project starts with a specific business problem and ends with a measurable improvement.

Simple beats clever

The best solutions are ones that just work. We'd rather build something straightforward that you can actually use than something impressive that collects dust.

Honest about what's possible

AI is powerful but it's not magic. We'll tell you what's realistic for your situation and budget. No hype, no overselling.

Long-term relationships

We want clients we can work with for years, not one-off projects. That means doing good work and being easy to work with.

Your data stays yours

We build with security and privacy in mind. Your business data is your competitive advantage—we protect it like it's our own.

Ship fast, iterate faster

We get working software in front of you quickly so we can improve it together. Progress beats perfection every time.
