Our Mission

7Lift.ai exists to help small and mid-sized businesses turn scattered ideas about AI into clear strategies, working systems, and measurable results. We believe AI should deliver real operational improvements — not hype, not experiments, not technology for technology's sake.

Too many businesses feel overwhelmed by AI. They hear buzzwords, see vendor pitches, and struggle to separate signal from noise. They want to use AI but don't know where to start, what to trust, or how to justify the investment. That's where we come in.

We provide executive-level AI strategy combined with hands-on implementation. We help you identify the opportunities with the highest ROI, design custom solutions tailored to your workflows, and build systems that your team will actually use. No cookie-cutter solutions. No one-size-fits-all platforms. Just practical AI that solves real problems.

Executive Experience Meets AI Expertise

David Swicegood founded 7Lift.ai to bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI capabilities and the practical realities of running a business. With decades of executive leadership experience and specialized AI training from MIT, he brings a unique perspective that combines strategic thinking with technical know-how.

✓

Former C-suite executive in a $3B+ enterprise with deep operational and strategic experience

✓

MIT Executive AI Program participant, bringing cutting-edge AI strategy frameworks

✓

Proven track record leading large-scale technology implementations and organizational change

✓

Deep understanding of business operations, revenue models, and growth challenges

Unlike many AI consultants who come from purely technical backgrounds, David understands the business side first. He knows what it's like to balance competing priorities, justify investments to a board, and make decisions with incomplete information. That perspective informs every recommendation he makes.

Why 7Lift.ai Is Different

Executive Perspective

We approach AI from a business-first mindset. Technology serves strategy, not the other way around. Every recommendation is grounded in operational reality and ROI.

Hands-On Implementation

We don't just create PowerPoint strategies. We build the systems, integrate them with your tools, train your team, and stick around to ensure success.

Industry Expertise

We specialize in insurance, real estate, medical/dental, construction, and professional services. We understand your workflows and speak your language.

Measurable Outcomes

We define success metrics upfront and track them throughout. Hours saved, revenue improved, customer satisfaction increased — not vague "transformation."

Vendor-Neutral Guidance

We're not tied to any specific AI platform or technology. We recommend what's best for your situation, not what earns us the highest commission.

Long-Term Partnership

AI isn't a one-and-done project. Our Fractional Chief AI Officer model provides ongoing strategic guidance as your needs evolve.

Our Approach

At 7Lift.ai, we follow a structured, proven methodology for every engagement:

✓

Listen first. We invest time understanding your business, team, challenges, and goals before proposing solutions.

✓

Focus on ROI. We prioritize AI initiatives that deliver measurable value quickly, building momentum with early wins.

✓

Start small, scale smart. We build pilots and prototypes to prove value before committing to large-scale rollouts.

✓

Empower your team. We train and enable your people so they can leverage AI independently, not create dependency.

✓

Measure and iterate. We track performance, gather feedback, and continuously improve systems based on real-world usage.

✓

Think long-term. We build solutions that grow with your business and establish governance that protects your interests.

Where We Work

7Lift.ai is based in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, in the heart of the beautiful Inland Northwest. We have deep roots in the region and primarily serve businesses across:

North Idaho: Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, Hayden, Rathdrum, and surrounding communities
Eastern Washington: Spokane, Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, and the greater Spokane metro area
Broader Inland Northwest: Sandpoint, Moscow, Lewiston, and other regional communities

While we're headquartered locally and love working with businesses in our own backyard, our services are delivered remotely and can support clients anywhere in the United States. Our expertise in AI strategy and implementation isn't limited by geography.

Whether you're a dental practice in Post Falls, a real estate brokerage in Spokane, an insurance agency in Coeur d'Alene, or a construction company expanding nationally, we can help you leverage AI to grow smarter, faster, and more profitably.
