Start here. This is who I am and why this group exists.
I spent decades building systems where failure was not an option. Robotics. Defence. Utilities. If it broke, someone lost real money or worse.
Then I watched the AI agency wave hit.
Smart people selling bold outcomes on top of fragile delivery. Freelancers ghosting mid-build. Agents that worked in a demo but fell over on day two. Margins destroyed by "just one more fix" sprints. Good client relationships killed by flaky tech and no handover.
The problem was never the AI. The problem was that nobody treated AI delivery like production software. No scope lock. No UAT. No monitoring. No runbook. No handover. No definition of what "done" actually means.
So I stopped building for agencies and started building with them.
I have now shipped many AI builds as a behind-the-scenes delivery partner. Voice agents, SMS automation, intake flows, CRM integrations, estimation pipelines, SaaS products. Under the agency's brand. With signed scope, measurable acceptance criteria, and a clean handover at the end.
That is what this group is about.
Not "learn AI." Not tutorials on prompt engineering. Not hype about what is coming next.
This group is about one thing: shipping AI projects that survive production and do not drag you back after go-live.
What you get here:
Go to the Classroom. Module 1 (The Delivery Foundation) gives you the five frameworks I use on every build:
1. The five failure modes that kill most agency builds
2. The production-ready checklist (6 requirements, non-negotiable)
3. Scope Lock: how to prevent scope creep before it starts
4. UAT: the gate between "it works" and "it's ready"
5. The Handover Pack: how to close a project and never get dragged back
Module 2 (Real Project Teardowns) breaks down three actual builds: multi-clinic SMS reminders, a joinery estimation pipeline, and a legal tech SaaS. What went wrong. What we built. What you can steal for your own projects.
How to get value here:
1. Start with Module 1 in the Classroom
2. Do the action at the end of each lesson (post your score, your Scope Lock, your test cases)
3. Post in the community when you have a real project to discuss
4. I tear down every project that gets posted with enough detail
What this group is not:
This is not a place for beginners who have not sold anything yet. If you are still figuring out what to build or how to get clients, there are better groups for that.
This is for agency founders and delivery leads who have already sold work and want it to ship properly. If that is you, welcome. Start in the Classroom.
