Startups & Solo Founders

AI strategy, SEO, and automation for founders doing it all themselves.

You're the product team, the marketer, and the support desk. AI can carry half of that if you set it up right. I help founders build the systems: content that gets you found, agents that handle the repeat work, and a software stack that doesn't eat your runway.

I'm a solo founder too. I built eezyRank, I'm building Fisheez, and I was in the top 1% of ChatGPT users worldwide in 2025. Everything I recommend, I run myself first.
