Start a conversation

Let’s take it easy. Before we meet, send me the problem. I’ll read it and reply with a short preliminary assessment, so our first conversation starts from something concrete rather than “so, tell me about your project.”

Bring a rough idea, a contractor proposal, or a problem you have struggled to frame. If I am not the person you need, I will tell you.

What you’ll get back

  • My reading of the problem, and what I suspect sits underneath it.
  • Whether AI or ML is plausibly the right tool. Sometimes it is not.
  • What I would investigate first, and what is still missing.
  • Whether I think I can help, and a suggested next step.

This is a preliminary read, not a solution or a design. I review every submission personally; if it looks like a reasonable fit, you’ll hear back with the assessment and we can decide whether a meeting makes sense.

Request a review

Ten to fifteen minutes of writing. Plain language is better than polish. Answer what you can:

  1. What are you trying to achieve? The outcome or decision you want to improve, not the technology.
  2. What happens today? How it is done now, and what isn't working.
  3. What makes it hard? Data quality, scale, accuracy, latency, cost, integration, human workflow — or not sure yet.
  4. What have you already tried? Optional.
  5. Where are you with it? Exploring an idea, reviewing a proposal, ready to build, or already built and struggling.
  6. Your industry and organisation size.
  7. What data and systems are involved? Optional. Rough volume, where it lives, anything already running. Guesses are fine.
  8. Is something driving the timing? Optional. A budget decision, a contract, a launch.

Attach anything useful: diagrams, requirements, a proposal, a small data sample.
