AI is everywhere.
New tools every week, every vendor pitching their solution.
Most people are stuck reading about it instead of actually using it.
And going to big consultancies just locks you into their platforms.

I help you cut through that.
Evaluate where AI fits in your workflow, scope the simplest solution, and ship it.
