Company Boilerplate
Lever Agency builds custom software, modern websites, and AI-powered tools for small and growing businesses. We replace fragile spreadsheets and manual processes with secure, custom-built software - built in days, not months.
The work spans four lines: custom business apps and customer portals, local business websites, Shopify builds, and back-office automation. The agency also runs its own operations on AI agents and writes openly about how.

Founder Bio
Paul Scolieri is the founder of Lever Agency. He has built software tools for businesses for years, first with no-code automation stacks and more recently with AI coding tools: commission management systems, KPI dashboards, customer portals, onboarding tools, and custom configurators.
He is not a traditional software developer, and that is the point. He understands how businesses run, what data matters, and how a well-built tool changes the way a team operates. He runs Lever's own back office on AI agents and writes about it on the Lever blog.
