Strategy & Advisory

Direction before you build.

Not sure what to fix first? In a focused working session or workshop, we map the highest-leverage moves for your business — and hand you a plan you can act on, whether or not you build it with us.

Digital & AI Solutions

The system that runs your business while you run it.

A website that books the table. An AI that answers the phone at 9pm and takes the order. A dashboard that shows it all in one place. We build custom software and automation around the exact bottleneck costing you time or customers.

FAQ

What exactly does Boxes and Tales do?

Two things, under one roof. We tell your story — through films, photography, and short-form video — and we build the custom software and AI systems that run your business, from voice agents that answer your phone to online ordering and owner dashboards.

Who do you typically work with?

Small businesses in and around the Research Triangle. Restaurants are our flagship specialty — our partnership with Grand Malabar Indian Cuisine in Morrisville spans photography, films, a website, and an AI front desk assistant — but our work fits any local business with a story worth telling.

What makes you different from a typical agency?

Most studios stop at making you look good. We're the only studio in the Triangle that tells your story and builds the custom system that runs it — beautiful frames on the outside, intelligent automation on the inside.

Where are you located, and where do you work?

We're based in Cary, North Carolina, and work with businesses across the Triangle — Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Morrisville, Chapel Hill, and nearby. Filming and photography happen on location with you; software and AI projects can go anywhere.
