AI Deployment
When something is worth building, I build it with you: custom automations, agents, integrations with the tools you already use, and open-source or local LLMs when the data can't leave your walls. Discovery first, including whether a platform already does it and you should buy instead; then a working pilot fast, and documentation your team can maintain. No black boxes, no lock-in.
Who it is forBusinesses with a process that eats hours every week and a clear picture of what done looks like.
Build or buy, decided before building
The platforms ship faster than any consultant can. Discovery starts with whether Claude, ChatGPT, your CRM or your workspace already does the job with a day of setup. When it does, that is the recommendation, and the engagement is short. When it does not, we build the thin layer that is actually missing.
What gets built
Agents that handle a process end to end and hand the unusual cases to a person. Automations between the tools you already use. Document pipelines that read reports, photos and records and surface what matters. Web apps your staff open every day. All of it with evaluations and tracing, so you can see what it did and why.
Private by design
For client files, patient records or internal financials, the model runs on your infrastructure, open-source or local, so nothing leaves your environment. Where a hosted model is fine, permissions decide what it can see before it sees anything.
What you end up with
- A discovery that says build, buy or skip, with the cost of each
- A working pilot fast, then a production system your team runs
- Private or local models when the data cannot leave
- Evaluations, tracing and documentation your team can maintain
- A handoff with 30 days of support, and no lock-in
What I have delivered
CAMCO: Training the Team, Building the Tools
Ongoing AI advisor to a commercial real estate group, remotely and through on-site enablement and training visits, starting with a rebuild of their website. I regularly teach partners and staff how to put AI to work in their daily workflows. I built Power Automate flows that scrub sensitive financial information from offering memoranda and other documents in SharePoint, with strict permissions on what the AI can and can't access. I also built a web app they can open anytime on a prospective property: it pulls from public records, satellite imagery, government announcements and recent news, then scores the property on power availability and expansion potential.
AI Back Office: B2B Wholesaler
LangChain agents that run the work between first contact and paid invoice. They find and research leads and email them, log every touch in the CRM, generate purchase orders and invoices, chase anything overdue, and answer customer questions by text and email, handing anything unusual to a person. 10-20 qualified leads a week.
Screening Coordination Agent
For an independent documentary: an agent that takes screening requests from first inquiry to booked date. It answers questions about the film and its academic context, qualifies the venue, schedules, and hands off to the crew when something needs approval. Built on the OpenAI Agents SDK with a FastAPI and PostgreSQL backend, OpenTelemetry tracing and automated evaluations. Plus a session training the crew to use AI for outreach and marketing.
Inspection Report Automation
Multimodal AI that processes inspection reports end-to-end — parses documents, analyzes photos, surfaces what matters. Hundreds of reports through production, processing time cut by two-thirds.
How I Work
Discovery
Deep-dive into your business, challenges, and what you've already tried. No solutions until I understand the problem.
Plan
Design the right approach: a rebuild, enablement, automation, a full build, or a combination, and whether to build at all.
Build Together
When I build, I build with you. Weekly check-ins, visible progress, and you understand every decision along the way.
Handoff & Beyond
Every engagement ends with your team able to operate independently. And if you need me again — for a new challenge, a second opinion, or just a gut check — I'm here.
Questions clients ask
- Can our data stay private?
- Yes. For sensitive data I deploy open-source or local LLMs on your infrastructure, so nothing goes to public AI endpoints. I describe exactly how the data is handled rather than promising compliance.
- What happens after launch?
- You get a handoff, documentation and 30 days of support, and your team operates it independently. If you need me again later, I am a call away.
- How long does a build take?
- Typical builds run four to eight weeks with weekly check-ins; some pilots land in under two. The scope and a capped budget are agreed first.
- Which platforms do you build on?
- The Claude and OpenAI agent SDKs, the Vercel AI SDK, LangChain and n8n, on your cloud or a private server, with SharePoint and Google Workspace integrations where the work lives.
