Overview
About Axe Automation
Axe Automation is a Marina del Rey agency that audits a business, rebuilds its systems in tools such as Monday.com and HubSpot, then places a trained AI engineer to build Make.com, n8n and Zapier automations. Clutch reviews come from insurance, paralegal, real estate-adjacent and nonprofit clients, and it lists JLL and Colliers among its clients.
Axe Automation is an AI and workflow automation agency based in Marina del Rey, California. Clutch gives a 2022 start date and a team of 10 to 49 people. The site names Ed Axe as CEO, a former Google and Procter & Gamble employee who built and sold an earlier company, alongside an automation engineer, an operations manager and a business process strategist.
The service is built around a four-phase approach. It starts with a business audit that documents operations and ends in a report on root causes, automation opportunities and priorities. Next comes a systems buildout, often in Monday.com or HubSpot, that puts projects and customer data in one place. The third phase places a trained AI engineer who builds automations with Make.com, n8n, Zapier, custom code and AI models, and the fourth covers training, SOPs and a metrics dashboard. Pricing is not published. The only call to action is a free consultation, though Clutch lists a $1,000 minimum project size.
Evidence is mixed but specific. Clutch shows 16 reviews averaging 4.7. Positive reviews come from an insurance adjusting firm that had an AI email-sorting tool built, a paralegal services firm that automated client intake, an insurance agency that commissioned a lead pipeline and dashboards, and a lead generation agency that says it cut onboarding from about a day to seconds. One pet food company gave a 0.5 review and said it received no working solution. The site lists JLL, Colliers, Blue Ocean Capital and Builders CPA Group among its logos, and reports 400 clients and more than 1,000 automated workflows, which are its own figures. Clutch breaks its industry mix into advertising, IT, real estate, business services and financial services.
It fits small and mid-sized service businesses that want one team to audit, restructure and then automate, particularly in insurance, accounting, real estate and legal support. Companies wanting a quick AI receptionist or a single chatbot may find the audit-first process heavier than they need. Ask to speak with a client in your sector and how the placed engineer is supervised after handover.
