This week, a business will overpay for an AI tool they don’t actually need.
Not because the solution is complex.
But because no one showed them a simpler way.
Most AI problems aren’t AI problems.
They’re workflow problems.
Repetitive support questions.
Manual processes.
Systems that don’t talk to each other.
These don’t need expensive platforms.
They need the right system built around the business.
That’s what I focus on.
RAG assistants, AI agents, and workflow automation that actually get used.
If you’re dealing with something like this, my profile is in the bio.
Have a good week. 🤝

A few months ago, we kept hearing the same thing everywhere:
“AI can already write code and speed up development.”
To be honest, we didn’t fully buy it.
But we also didn’t want to ignore it.
So instead of debating, we decided to test it ourselves.
We chose the safest place to experiment — our own internal finance & accounting system.
No client risk. Full freedom to try, fail, and learn.
A few weeks later, we ended up with:
• a refreshed accounting dashboard
• clearer visibility into costs, adjustments, and subscriptions
• better tracking across financial flows
All built with AI as part of the process.
AI generated the initial code.
The team handled validation and improvements, then made sure everything worked reliably in a real setup.
Did AI replace developers??
No.
Did it help us move faster and rethink how we build?
100%.
Of course, this approach isn’t universal.
It doesn’t fit every case, especially complex or critical systems.
And like any tool, it needs to be applied carefully, depending on the context.
We’ve actually already tried AI-assisted development on real client projects.
When speed really mattered, it allowed us to move much faster while keeping the quality bar where it should be.
So whenever timelines get tight — we already have a way to deal with it 🙂
Good work
We recently wrapped up this AI-first hub.
For this client, one of our focus was turning complex business data—from financial reports to contract tracking—into a fast, interactable interface. We wanted to show how AI can practically simplify daily operations and speed up decision-making for users.
Really proud of the team’s attention to detail on the motion and UX here. Can’t wait to share the full project breakdown with you all soon!
Nice!
Most freelancers/agency founders use AI to write faster.
