The story

I spent eight years at McKinsey selling $200K BI strategy projects to Fortune 500 companies. Every single one involved tools 90% of my clients never used. When I went independent, I realized solo consultants and small strategy teams were completely underserved—paying enterprise prices for features they'd never touch. I built my own intelligence stack for $147/month. Now I teach others to do the same.

Mission

To teach independent consultants and strategy professionals how to build custom AI-powered intelligence systems—without enterprise budgets or technical degrees.
