An owner who builds, not a reseller
Austin Web & AI is Robert Ramirez’s agency. He runs a 24-hour roadside company, leads the software that runs it, and now builds the same kind of tools for other local businesses in Austin and San Marcos.
From the road to the code
Robert runs 24Hr Car Unlocking, a mobile car locksmith and roadside company. Running a 24-hour, on-demand business means phones at 2 a.m., technicians spread across a metro, and customers who need to know exactly when help will arrive. Off-the-shelf tools didn’t fit, so he had software built: Phoenix, a dispatch platform with a technician app.
It started with contract developers in 2022. In 2026 Robert took over most of the development himself, working with AI coding tools. He moved the platform to Cloudflare, kept the technician app shipping, and built Ace, an AI phone dispatcher on Twilio and Claude, to replace a rented answering vendor.
Moving phone intake and follow-up from virtual assistants to Ace and our automations saves the business about $85K a year.
He also spent more than $120K on SEO agencies and consultants for his own site, and learned what works and what quietly hurts rankings.
He represented himself against the State, and won
Texas DPS denied Robert’s locksmith license over a record from when he was 19. Robert read HB 1342, built his case, and represented himself before the State Office of Administrative Hearings.
The judge’s decision overruled the denial. On November 13, 2026, DPS wrote that, based on that decision, it “will be issuing your license.”
That experience led him to build ProSeFiler, a self-help app for people representing themselves in Texas courts, on the web, iPhone and Android. It also explains how he works: read the rules, do the work, and don’t promise what you can’t back up.
