Your SaaS Renewal is Due. Try Building It Instead.
Build solutions you own. Not subscriptions you rent.
I help organisations replace expensive, inflexible SaaS with custom AI solutions their teams can build, own, and maintain. Safe. Fast. Compliant. Deeply personalised. Easily maintainable.
No vendor partnerships. No recurring fees. No lock-in. Just custom solutions your team owns, built by someone who's shipped products at Microsoft and understands why SaaS subscriptions fail you.
You're spending six figures on SaaS that doesn't fit.
Legacy SaaS wasn't built for your use case. It was built for the average customer – which means it's perfect for no one. You're stuck paying enterprise prices for commodity features, trapped in vendor lock-in with annual price hikes, while your team builds workarounds because the tool doesn't do what you actually need. There's a better way.
Rising costs
Annual renewals that increase 20-40% year-over-year with no escape route.
Poor fit
Tools built for everyone that work perfectly for no one. You pay for 100 features and use 20.
Vendor lock-in
Your data, your workflows, their platform. Want to leave? Good luck.
Feature hostage
Critical features on the 'roadmap' forever. Or available in Enterprise tier for 3x the price.
What if you could build it instead? Own it. Maintain it. Change it whenever you want.
Here's what you get. Not what you rent.
Most SaaS forces you to choose: fast OR secure, flexible OR compliant, cheap OR good. I help you build solutions that don't compromise. Safe, fast, compliant, deeply personalised, and easily maintainable. Not because I'm magic, because I've shipped products at Microsoft, led teams at scale, and know what actually works.
Safely & Compliant
Security, privacy, regulatory compliance baked in from day one. Not bolted on later when you're already in production.
Quickly
Prototype in days. Ship MVP in weeks. Not 18-month enterprise projects that are obsolete before launch.
Deeply Personalized
Built for YOUR workflows, YOUR business logic, YOUR users. Not 'configurable settings' – actual customisation.
Easily Maintainable
Clean code. Real documentation. Your team can own it, change it, and extend it. No black boxes.

We don't just advise. We build.
Let's be honest about fit.
I don't work with everyone. Not because I'm exclusive – because I'd rather do great work with the right people than mediocre work with anyone who shows up.
This is for you if...
- You're done with pilots that go nowhere
- You want to understand AI, not just buy it
- You're ready to challenge how your organisation thinks
- You have the authority to actually make changes
This is NOT for you if...
- You want someone to validate decisions you've already made
- You're looking for the cheapest option
- You need AI to tick a box for the board
- You can't handle direct feedback
If you're still reading, you're probably the right kind of person. Let's find out.
