AI Business Transitions is a St. Petersburg company with a simple mission: help local businesses stop losing customers to missed calls, slow follow-up, and competitors who show up better online. We bring the same AI automation the big national chains use — AI phone agents, instant lead follow-up, and automated reviews — to the dentists, HVAC companies, chiropractors, electricians, and contractors right here in our own backyard.

We're a two-person team, and we like it that way. Adam Ridge founded AI Business Transitions and runs the builds — he's the one wiring up the AI phone agents, review engines, and follow-up systems that answer your calls and win back your customers. Duke Newcom spent his career in the financial world, including years with Ameriprise, before co-founding the company. A fellow St. Pete local, Duke focuses on the numbers side: the real ROI of a call you didn't miss, a customer you brought back, or a lead you answered in seconds instead of hours.

You'll never log into a complicated dashboard or wrestle with software. We handle the entire backend and build your system live within 10 business days — then a simple monthly text keeps you in the loop on calls handled, reviews generated, and leads captured. No jargon, no tech headaches, no enterprise price tag. Just automation that quietly makes you money while you run your business.
The best way to understand what we do is to experience it. Head to our homepage and call one of our live AI phone agents — hear exactly how it would answer your front desk, qualify a caller, and book the job, 24/7. Based right here at 100 1st Ave N in downtown St. Petersburg, we'd love to show you what catching every call could do for your business.
