One human · Teams of AI agents
Now you can run your business on AI. Not just talk about it.
The difference between a calculator and an accountant.
Operational AI for solo founders and small expert teams.
How it works
One engagement, three phases. Most clients start with a Discovery Sprint and continue into a full Build.
Discovery Sprint
2–3 days
I map your operations and find where AI creates genuine value. You walk away with an initial system and a clear picture.
AI Ops Build
4–8 weeks
A working system that runs your daily operations. Pipeline, meetings, content, client management. Not a report.
Capability transfer
Included
You learn to extend the system yourself. That’s the point. Most clients stay on monthly support because the value keeps compounding.
How I work with you
Discovery Sprint
2–3 days
I map your operations and find where AI creates genuine value. Not another consultancy report. You walk away with an initial system and a clear picture.

AI Ops Build
4–8 weeks
A working system that runs your daily operations. Pipeline, meetings, content, client management. This is where most engagements spend their time.

Revenue share
You bring the domain expertise. I bring the build capability. Revenue share, no retainers. We both have skin in the game.
Revenue share
Most engagements start with Discovery and continue as a Build. Studio is a different commercial model for deeper product work.
Why it works
Three benefits. They reinforce one outcome.
Now you can run your business on AI, not just talk about it.
01 · SCALE FROM REVENUE
Scale without the pain of fundraising or hiring.
One human plus teams of AI agents replaces teams of tens and a Series Alphabet. Run everything without the headcount it used to take.
02 · OPERATIONAL BACKBONE
The whole business running on systems, not a single ChatGPT prompt.
Pipeline, meetings, client comms, content, knowledge capture, reporting. Morning briefings before you open your laptop. Two-minute meeting prep. Every enquiry captured and qualified.
03 · CAPABILITY TRANSFER
You own the system and learn to extend it yourself.
Each engagement teaches you to read, run and extend the systems I build. Your repo, your data, your patterns. When the engagement ends, you're not stuck. You're upgraded.
About Adrian.
About AI Ops.
A one-human practice supported by teams of AI agents. Still practising law, still invested in my last startup, now building AI Ops. The overlap is deliberate, it’s how the systems I ship run and scale your business.
COMMERCIAL LAW
I helped disruptors from the outside.
Early on, I built the legislative blueprint that let the likes of Monzo, Starling, and Revolut launch without a banking licence. Two decades advising global funds, banks, startups, and the FCA and Bank of England since. Ranked Legal 500 and Lawyer Hot 100.
STARTUP OPERATOR
I learnt how disruption actually runs.
Founded three startups. Lumio still going, scaled to 25+ across nine countries, £2.5m+ raised, Tech Nation Rising Star. A decade of experimentation, failure, and learning. Systems built at scale, not reports on shelves. Advisory work never teaches this.
AI OPS
I built the thing I kept describing.
Practising what I preach. About £200/month in subscriptions. The same systems I use to run my entire business and life are the ones I now build for yours.
“If you don’t know which port you’re sailing to, no wind is favourable.”
Got questions?
ChatGPT is a tool you use for one-off tasks. This is an operational system that runs your business processes every day. Pipeline tracking, meeting prep, client management, content creation. It’s the difference between having a calculator and having an accountant.
Discovery Sprint starts from £1,000 + VAT per day (2–3 days). A full AI Ops Build typically runs £5,000–15,000 + VAT over 4–8 weeks. After that, optional monthly support. The infrastructure itself runs on about £200/month in AI subscriptions.
The opposite. Every engagement includes capability transfer. You learn to extend the system yourself. That’s the point. Most clients stay on monthly support because the value compounds, not because they’re locked in.
Your data lives in your own systems. Git repositories you own, files on your infrastructure. Every decision is tracked and auditable.
The patterns transfer across industries. I’ve built systems for financial services, dental practices, architecture firms, education organisations, and content businesses. The operational challenges are remarkably similar. You are the domain expert. That expertise is what makes the AI augmentation work.
Discovery Sprint: 2–3 days. Full Build: 4–8 weeks to a working system. You’ll see the first working components within the first week.

If you’re still reading
We should probably have a conversation.
Two minutes of questions. If we’re a fit, I set up a fifteen-minute call. If we’re not, I’ll tell you honestly and often point you at something useful.
