I help those who run a company govern AI without being technicians.

Six steps, from the Monday newsletter to a Chief AI Officer mandate.

I work alongside CEOs, boards and entrepreneurs on the decisions AI puts on the table: what to do, what to sign, what to keep in-house. The judgement stays with those who decide. I bring the technical side. In 2026 I am on the World's Top 2% Scientists list by Stanford and Elsevier.

Company Second Brain

People move on. Memory stays.

Your company's memory, made queryable: connected cards, an AI agent that answers questions instead of returning folders, a discipline that keeps the system alive. The knowledge stays with the company, even as people change. I built it for myself and for my own firm before offering it to clients: on the page you will find the four-step path and the thirty-minute test that measures what not remembering costs you today.

Frequently asked questions.

Between 6 and 18 months, depending on AI maturity at the starting point. The first 90 days cover assessment + roadmap + first pilot in production. From there we scale.

No. I work with SMEs from €10M revenue upward. The IMPACT methodology was built for those who do not have a Big Four budget but want comparable operational rigor.

Every pilot starts with agreed KPIs: business metrics (revenue, cost, cycle time) plus technical metrics (accuracy, latency, adoption). Dashboard updated weekly.

Stay Relevant.
