Why I started
I kept meeting owners of good businesses, with loyal customers and products people love, who knew AI could help but didn't know where to start. Their options were a chatbot they had to set up themselves, or an agency they couldn't justify.
So I started with one: Ichen Art Academy, an art school in Fremont and Pleasanton. We rebuilt its 15-year-old website in three days. Every one of its 288 old links kept working, and its AI readiness went to 100, up from 71. It showed me that a small team of AI agents, working from the best practices of a business's industry, can deliver outsized results without adding headcount.

Launching products, and getting paid.
I led new products and collections as the company grew to millions in revenue. It taught me what it takes to bring something new to market, and that following up on what you're owed is revenue too.

How great sales teams run.
I ran revenue and sales operations for a company whose customers include Salesforce and DoorDash: the metrics, the pipeline, and the habits that separate good teams from great ones.

How AI agents work in the real world.
I've personally deployed AI agents for Fortune 500 companies. Agents need a coordinator, clear rules, and a person approving the work. That's why every Octavely team has a chief of staff, and nothing goes out without your approval.
