AI AUTOMATION
AI systems that grow revenue and margins inside real companies.
Your team is good. The systems underneath them haven’t kept up with the growth. I design and implement the AI and automation that answer leads faster, follow up every time, and take the manual work out of operations, run with the discipline of a nuclear submarine.
A few minutes. No sales pitch.
Where growth leaks
Lead response
Leads that wait hours for a reply go cold and buy from someone faster.
Sales follow-up
Deals stall when follow-up depends on someone remembering to do it.
Conversion
Good prospects slip through when every rep runs the process their own way.
Upsells & retention
Customers who would buy more never get asked, and some quietly leave.
Manual operations
Skilled people spend their week copying data between systems.
Reporting
Leaders wait days for numbers they need to make today's decision.
WHY SUBMARINES
On a nuclear submarine, a crew brings a reactor online by following the procedure, step by step, in the right order. Nobody has to be a hero. The system carries everyone. I learned that in the engine room of the USS Jefferson City and wrote it down in All Hands on Deck. AI only works the same way: procedures first, then automation, then people and agents who run it.

WHO YOU’RE WORKING WITH
I started fixing engines in an auto shop, then served on Navy nuclear submarines doing quality assurance under SUBSAFE. At HSB, part of Munich Re, I led mobile technology that made inspections 30% faster. Since then I’ve designed the systems underneath companies growing fast, and now I do it with AI.
