Practical AI automation

Straightforward AI consultancy for businesses that want to automate their own pipelines.

I help teams ship real automations (documents, email intake, ERP workflows, reporting) without six-figure vendor engagements. Clear scope, fast prototypes, clean handoff.

Automation Scoping

Turn “we should automate this” into a concrete plan: data sources, edge cases, security, ROI.

  • 1–2 week discovery
  • Process map + backlog
  • Build vs buy guidance

Prototype → Production

Prototypes that behave like production. Small, testable, documented, and maintainable.

  • Python/FastAPI
  • Queues + retries
  • Observability + logs

Document Pipelines

Extract structured data from messy PDFs/emails, validate totals, route exceptions.

  • Invoice/remittance intake
  • Line-item extraction
  • Human-in-the-loop review

How it works

You’ll always know what we’re building, why it matters, and what it costs. No black boxes. No “AI magic” decks.

  • Step 1: 30-minute intro call → define the outcome
  • Step 2: quick discovery → confirm data + constraints
  • Step 3: prototype → prove it works on your real samples
  • Step 4: harden + handoff → docs, tests, monitoring

Good fit if…

You want automation you can own internally — not a forever-retainer.

  • You have repetitive manual work (finance ops, docs, data entry)
  • You can provide a handful of real examples to start
  • You want a practical path with measurable outcomes
