Who we are

In short

Westward builds custom software and AI agents for businesses, from Venice, California. It was founded by Orion Jones, who builds it: an engine that finds off-market real estate deals in public records every night, a leasing platform where two AI agents negotiate, and the agents we run our own business on.

How we work

Five rules we keep, because AI is useful and also sometimes wrong.

A person is in charge

AI drafts; a person approves anything important or public. Nothing is sent for you without your say-so.

We mark what the AI wrote

Anything written by AI is labeled, with the original one click away, because AI can be wrong.

We show numbers as they are

Good or bad. When a result is small or early, we say so, as on our own pages.

We tell you when AI will not help

If a job is not worth automating, you hear that before you spend anything.

Your accounts stay yours

We set things up on your logins. Every account and password stays yours.

We use what we build

Our SEO agent works our Google search. Our site updater changes this website every night. Our CRM and email system run our client work. Each has a write-up with what it did.
