02 — Skyline AV
Chicago · 32 techs · Residential + Commercial
Switched from the legacy desktop platform + 5 adjacent tools. Migrated in 36 hours.
Skyline was running a 32-tech residential + commercial hybrid out of the legacy desktop platform, with a separate dispatch board (Smartsheet), a separate customer portal (none), a separate signing flow (DocuSign), and three accountants stitching it all together at month-end. Optimus migrated the catalog + opportunity history + contacts in 36 hours. By month two, they dropped DocuSign, Smartsheet, and three QuickBooks add-ons.
“We tried four modern AV-platform alternatives. Optimus is the first one our techs actually opened on day two. The whole shop ran cleaner inside a week.”

03 — Bay Integration
03 — Bay Integration
San Francisco · 28 techs · Commercial AV
Cut six hours per proposal in week one. Closed two new RFPs from time saved.
Bay focuses on Fortune-1000 corporate buildouts — board rooms, training rooms, video-conferencing standards. Proposals run 200–400 line items with detailed compliance matrices. Optimus's AI proposal builder + RFP intake cut their per-bid cycle from 38 hours to 12. They reallocated the freed capacity into bidding two extra deals per quarter.
“The AI doesn't just suggest — it proposes the right thing. We pulled six hours per proposal out of the cycle in week one. By month three we'd closed two RFPs we wouldn't have had time to bid on otherwise.”

Atlanta · 4 locations · Multi-location residential
Consolidated four locations onto one record. Dropped seven SaaS tools.
Apex runs custom residential AV out of four locations across the Southeast. Before Optimus, each location operated independently with its own legacy-platform instance, its own QuickBooks, its own dispatch board. Optimus's multi-location consolidation gave them one shared catalog, one shared customer view, and one CFO-level P&L without the consolidation gymnastics.
“Our legacy-platform data was migrated cleanly in 36 hours. We dropped seven SaaS subscriptions the next quarter. Our location managers see each other's pipelines for the first time in five years.”
