AI-first growth for funded startups, from someone who built three from zero.

I help founders and CMOs of seed-funded D2C and B2C startups grow revenue, with AI doing work that used to need a full team. You get an operator who still runs the work every week, not a slide deck.

Results from companies I helped build

I was part of the founding team at three of these companies. That means I owned the numbers, not just the advice. Pick a company to see what changed.

AI does the heavy lifting. I own the outcome.

Most consultants stop at the strategy deck. I build the growth engine with you, with AI agents handling the research, content, ads and reporting that used to need a full team.

Every decision is measured on the bottom line: revenue, customer value and cost per customer. That is how Bueno reached a lifetime value 24 times its acquisition cost, and how Infento went from €0 to €2M in DTC revenue.

Where is growth stuck for you?

Most startups I meet have one of these problems. Pick yours to see where we would start, and where AI speeds it up.

Before After three months

From zero bookings to fully booked

In 2020, COVID cancelled every booking at Font Neuve, a group of holiday houses. In three months we built their online engine from scratch: ads, landing pages and tracking.

Visits went up 178%, leads went up 137% and the cost of each new customer fell by 86%. The season ended fully booked.
