Overflowing inbox. Missed commitments.

Hours gone to busywork a machine should be doing. You know AI could help, and you don't know where to start. That's where I come in. The right tools, set up right, take the grunt work off your plate so you can focus on what actually matters.

Three ways to work together

About

Hi, I'm Michael Connell.

I studied AI at MIT, then spent eleven years leading a hundred-person team that delivered AI integration services to many R&D teams, helping each one build AI into how it works. Along the way I've been a software engineer, a strategist, and a marketer, so I've used these tools from every angle.

Now I want to bring that experience home, to the businesses and people of Arlington. The technology big organizations use should be within reach for everyone else, and helping my own community get there is the work I want to be doing.
