The Problem

Where AutoUp was stuck

AutoUp is a certified Instantly expert and one of the top cold email operators in the space. Ken knew automation could take his business to the next level but wasn't sure what was actually possible. He had used Airtable and knew the basics, but couldn't architect complex systems or know where the ceiling was on what could be automated. Most of the "consultants" he'd talked to couldn't tell him what was or wasn't technically feasible.

The Solution

What we built

We worked with Ken in an agile, Sprint-based model. Ken would come with a business problem — "I want to build X" — and we'd architect it, turn around a 90-95% complete solution within days, and iterate from there. Our developer identified hidden APIs inside Instantly that unlocked functionality other automation agencies said was impossible. We handled complex domain management, email infrastructure automation, and client delivery workflows across Ken's entire stack.

The Results

What happened next

AutoUp has booked meetings at 110 of the Fortune 500 on the back of the automation infrastructure we built together. Ken now writes about OpsKings publicly in the Instantly community as the go-to team for serious cold email operations. The speed of iteration — from idea to shipped feature in days — became one of Ken's biggest competitive advantages. He's able to deliver for clients at a level most agencies can't match.

“You guys are agile. I'll say "this is 90-95% of the way home" and make some tweaks, and it's done quickly. The speed and feedback loop is unmatched. People say I have A-players on my team — well, you guys have them too. There is not a weak link on the roster.”
