Most AI projects never get out of pilot.

I run a regulated payments company. The operations are handled by AI agents I built, working on live payments every day. One of them caught a payment bug on its first day running. In the same period I took my company from twelve people down to three, and the system got more reliable.

Why me

I've done both sides of this.

Twelve years at Deloitte on enterprise architecture and transformation for Fortune 500 clients, working with executives up to CIO level. AT&T Wireless, Exelon, Cargill. Then three years building a regulated payments platform myself, including moving customer funds onto new rails without losing any. Most people selling AI transformation have only run pilots. My agents are in production, handling live payments.

Engagements

Three ways to work together.

Assessment

Two to three weeks. I go through your architecture, your risks, and how you ship. You get it written up, with a plan in priority order. You can run that plan without me. Most people start here.

Fixed fee · from US$20,000

Fractional CTO

Two days a week. I own the architecture and the decisions that come with it. I help you hire. I handle the technical side of your board conversations, and I keep the system from going stale.

Retainer · from US$18,000/month

Advisory

Half a day a week. For a founder or head of engineering who wants someone to work decisions through with, and who'll say when something's a bad idea.

Retainer · from US$6,000/month

Proof
