Custom AI Apps.
Built, Not Advised.
End-to-end AI application development by a Fractional Chief AI Officer and 3x CHRO who trained AI models for OpenAI, Meta and Microsoft. Domain expertise in HR, VC/PE, nonprofit, and executive coaching — built into every line.
The Differentiator
A Developer Who Understands Your Domain
Domain First, Code Second
20+ years in HR, VC, and executive leadership means requirements are understood before the first line of code. No spec translation loss. No expensive iteration cycles to teach the builder your industry.
AI-Native Speed
AI-assisted development means 10x faster iteration than traditional dev shops. What takes a 3-person team 3 months gets scoped, built, and shipped in weeks — without sacrificing quality or maintainability.
You Own Everything
Full source code delivery, complete documentation, and a handoff session. No vendor lock-in, no SaaS dependency, no license fees. Your app, your infrastructure, your data.
Delivered Projects
8 Builds. Real Organizations. Real Software.
Most were scoped, architected, and shipped for a specific client with a specific problem. Two are proprietary operating systems built and run in-house — shown here as reference architectures a portfolio company can deploy.
AI HR Pilot
HR Operations · Venture Studio
Intelligent HR policy assistant built for Grand Kru Ventures as a proof of concept that rapidly took on commercial form. Classifies employee tickets, routes to teams, applies company-specific policy sets, and delivers instant AI-generated answers from a structured knowledge base — across multiple portfolio companies simultaneously.
Outcome
What began as a PoC became a commercial product. HR ticket resolution time cut from 3 days to under 2 hours. ROI positive within 30 days of first deployment.
i9Drill
HR Compliance · I-9 & Work Authorization
AI-powered I-9 and work-authorization compliance tool — the same "Drill" family as DueDrill. Runs mock I-9 audits against current USCIS rules, flags Section 1/2/3 errors and missing or expiring documents, and tracks reverification deadlines across an entire workforce. Built by a 3x CHRO with a JD, so the compliance logic is authoritative, not generic.
Why It Matters for Portcos
Turns I-9 compliance from a fire drill when a Notice of Inspection lands into a standing, always-audit-ready posture — surfacing the paperwork errors that trigger five- and six-figure penalties before an auditor does, across every operating company in a portfolio.
DueDrill
VC Due Diligence · PE/VC Fund
AI-powered deep due diligence platform for a PE/VC fund investing in defense tech, AI, and health tech. Generates structured investment memos with risk scoring, competitive analysis, and financial modeling — in the fund's own voice and framework.
Outcome
40–60 hours of analyst work per deal compressed to under 4 hours. Fund tripled deal evaluation capacity without adding headcount.
CEO Command Center
Executive Decision OS · Proprietary System
A decision-integration operating system that ingests up to 12 C-suite reports and compresses them into the three calls a CEO actually has to make each day, a weekly thesis update, and an append-only decision log. Built and run in-house at Portfolio Leverage — the same architecture deployable inside a portfolio company's executive office.
Outcome
Collapses the daily "read everything, decide fast" problem into a single briefing. Every decision is logged and traceable by record, so the reasoning behind a call is never lost. Proprietary system, shown here as a reference build.
C-Suite Swarm OS
Executive Agent OS · Proprietary System
A 13-node executive agent operating system: twelve specialist supervisors (CMO, CRO, CFO, CPO, CTO, COO, CSO, CCO, CLO, CDO, CHRO) plus a Chief of Staff and a CEO integrator, each running a supervisor-swarm-auditor pattern that gates every output. All thirteen produce schema-locked daily reports that roll up into one executive view.
Outcome
Stands up an entire AI C-suite in days, not quarters — a template for giving a lean portfolio company the operating cadence of a fully staffed executive team. Proprietary system, shown here as a reference build.
Ravenbridge Capital Partners
Private Equity · Institutional Website
Corporate website built for Ravenbridge Capital Partners, a private equity platform investing in critical minerals, data infrastructure, dual-use technologies and advanced computing. Custom brand system extending the navy and gold identity, full investment thesis architecture, sector pages, leadership bios, and investor relations flows.
Outcome
Institutional-grade web presence suitable for LP outreach and deal flow. Launched ready for $500M+ capital deployment narrative and 30+ years combined team experience positioning.
Ravenbridge Capital Advisors
Investment Banking · Advisory Website
Corporate site built for Ravenbridge Capital Advisors, the investment banking and advisory arm led by Managing Partner Adam Phillips. Practice positioning at the nexus of finance, frontier technology and national security. Team profiles, service offerings, and analytical support messaging for institutional clients.
Outcome
Standalone advisory brand presence that reinforces the broader Ravenbridge ecosystem while maintaining independent advisory positioning for IB engagements.
Jade Mountain Partners
Private Equity · Institutional Website
Full institutional redesign for Jade Mountain Partners, an SEC-registered adviser managing ~$1.3B across seven niche structured-product verticals (litigation finance, life settlements, insurance-linked credit and more), led by former Apollo managing directors. A dated 2016 template rebuilt into a custom Template 2.0 site: a deep-jade and gold brand system, full investment-thesis architecture, seven vertical pages, leadership pedigree and a segmented investor contact flow.
Outcome
Built speculatively and walked into the firm through a personal connection, the same warm-intro path that opened Ravenbridge. First reaction from inside the fund: an unqualified "WOW."
