Applied AI · Product & Solutions

Find the problem. Build the fix. Ship it.

I find the work that's quietly costing you time or money, then build what fixes it — AI when that's the right lever, software when it isn't. I've run the P&L, so I build for the result, not the demo.

Case Study 01 · Insights + Odin

Ask the business a question. Get the answer in seconds.

Cyberphoto's data lived in 3–4 disconnected systems; answers took hours. I unified it and put an AI assistant on top — so anyone can just ask.

What I built

Insights — one platform merging 3–4 data sources into live dashboards. Odin — a natural-language layer over it that answers questions and runs analysis, with scoped, read-only access.

Used daily across purchasing, marketing, and sales. The method is repeatable — the next dataset, the next team.

Case Study 02 · Commercial

Running the P&L, not just the dashboard.

Before I built the tools, I ran the category they serve — a 22,000-SKU, 47-vendor P&L. I rebuilt how it was bought and priced.

What I did

Re-engineered buying and supplier terms, and built automated pricing across 90%+ of SKUs with daily margin guardrails. Made margin a discipline, and freed up working capital.

How I work · The Four A's

A method, not magic.

01

Audit

Map how the work really flows, and find where time and money leak.

02

Atomize

Break the messy process into clear, repeatable steps.

03

Automate

Put AI on the steps it can do faster or cheaper; keep humans on the judgment calls.

04

Adopt

Ship it into daily use, and prove it moved the number.

About
Boyd Williamson

I ran a category P&L for years, learning exactly where a business leaks time and money. Then I learned to direct AI to build the systems that plug the leaks. I'm not a traditional engineer — I design the system, direct the AI that builds it, and own what ships.
