I get AI actually working in your business.

Not another subscription. Not a 40-page strategy. I sit down with you, find the handful of things worth building — an AI tool that handles the tedious work, a piece of custom software, a small automation — and build them, then make sure they keep working. One person, start to finish.

Two kinds of people hire me

// and you don’t need to know which one you are yet

Curious

You’ve heard AI could help — but you’re stuck

You don’t know where it would fit, what’s real versus hype, or whether it’s safe to put your information near it. That’s a normal place to start. Figuring that out is half the job, and I’ll point you at the one or two things actually worth doing.

Already trying

You’re using AI already, but it’s a mess

Your team pastes things into ChatGPT and hopes for the best. The results are inconsistent, nothing is written down, and you’re a little nervous about what’s going where. I’ll turn the dabbling into something reliable you can actually trust.

How it works

// four steps — in plain English, no jargon required from you

01

I learn how your business actually runs

I spend time with you and your team and watch how the work really gets done — the slow parts, the parts everyone dreads, the things that fall through the cracks. You don’t have to prepare anything or speak in tech terms.

02

We figure out what’s worth doing

Not everything should be handed to AI. I’ll be honest about the handful of tasks where it genuinely saves you time or money, and just as honest about the ones where it would only cause trouble.

03

I build it — and show you fast

You’ll be trying a rough version on your own real work within days, not months. We adjust it together until it fits the way you actually work, instead of forcing you to change around it.

04

I make sure it keeps working

I set it up to run without me, show whoever needs to use it how it works, and stay reachable if something breaks. You’re left with a tool that earns its keep, not a science project.

How this is different

// most options hand you something and walk away. I build it and stay.

Your optionsWhat you actually getBuilds it for you?When they’re gone
Me Working tools set up inside your business Yes — I build it myself Once it’s working on its own
A consultant A strategy and a slide deck No As soon as the report lands
An AI subscription A generic tool you have to figure out You do that part You’re on your own from day one
A full-time hire A salary, plus managing them Yes If you can find and afford one

Where AI tends to earn its keep

// examples, not a menu — yours will be specific to you

Paperwork

Reading and sorting the pile

Contracts, intake forms, records, applications — read, summarized, and sorted in minutes instead of an afternoon. The kind of stack a busy firm quietly drowns in.

Answers

The same questions, handled

An assistant that actually knows your policies, pricing, and paperwork, so your team and your customers get a straight answer without pulling someone off their real work.

Busywork

The copy-and-paste jobs

Pulling the details out of emails and PDFs and putting them where they belong. Quiet, repetitive, easy-to-fumble work that software should be doing, not a person.

Writing

A first draft, every time

Routine letters, replies, and proposals drafted in your voice and ready for a human to check before it goes out. The blank page stops being the bottleneck.

It’s not only AI

// I build regular software too — and use AI to build it faster where that genuinely helps

Some of the best fixes have no AI in them at all.

A custom tool that replaces a fragile spreadsheet. A small program that does a job no off-the-shelf app quite covers. A slow, clunky process made less painful. I’m a software developer first — AI is one tool on the bench, not the whole point.

When I am writing software, I use AI to prototype faster and keep your costs down on the parts that suit it. But I’ll be straight with you: it doesn’t make all coding faster or cheaper, whatever you’ve been told. It speeds up some of the work and barely touches the rest. Knowing which is which is most of the job — and it’s where the real savings come from.

How I work

// the parts I won’t compromise on

01

I own the result — not a recommendation.

A consultant hands you a plan and leaves. I build the actual thing and stay until it works in your day-to-day. If it breaks, that’s mine to fix, not yours to chase.

02

You’ll see something working this week.

I’d rather put a rough version in front of you in days and fix it with you than disappear for two months and hope I guessed what you needed.

03

I’ll tell you when AI isn’t the answer.

Sometimes the honest fix is a spreadsheet, a checklist, or one setting changed. You’ll get that from me instead of a project you didn’t need.

Next step

Not sure if AI can even help you?

That’s a fine place to start — most people who reach out aren’t sure either. Tell me what eats your time. If AI can help, I’ll show you how. If it can’t, I’ll tell you that too.
