I build AI-driven systems that turn customer conversations into revenue for retail, F&B and consumer brands.

What I do

AI, marketing & operations — as one stack.

I work at the intersection of AI, marketing and operations — designing platforms that connect POS, CRM and messaging so brands acquire, engage and retain customers with less manual work.

01

Retail & F&B owners

Increase repeat orders, run smarter campaigns and understand your customers — without hiring a full tech team.

02

Founders & product teams

Architect and build modular SaaS: FnB POS/ERP, organization-wide operating systems, and AI-powered engagement layers.

03

Investors & partners

Turn complex, fragmented workflows into focused, revenue-generating products with clear unit economics and expansion paths.

Conversational Customer Engagement Platform

SpotBay

An AI-powered conversational customer engagement platform for retail & F&B brands. It plugs into your existing tools and turns every interaction into measurable revenue and loyalty.

See how SpotBay works
  • Grow repeat visits and order frequency with automated, personalized campaigns.
  • Run offers, loyalty and feedback workflows right from customer conversations.
  • Give owners and CMOs one view of customers, revenue and campaign impact.

Where SpotBay is today

Live with paying customers — running for months, continuously learning from real usage and outcomes.

Platforms I’m building

The systems businesses actually run on.

Real-world workflows first — then deep integration with AI and analytics.

POS + ERP

FnB Operating System

A multi-tenant FnB operating system for QSR, dine-in, cafés, bakeries, bars, cloud kitchens, food courts and multi-outlet chains — deeply integrated with SpotBay.

  • Fast, reliable POS & KOT flows for every FnB format
  • Inventory, recipes & cost control tied to sales
  • Multi-outlet management, reporting & central control
  • Loyalty & engagement powered by SpotBay — not bolted on
CRM + Dashboards

Organization Operating System

A unified system to run sales, operations and leadership dashboards (CEO, CTO, COO, CFO, CMO) for growing organizations.

  • CRM & pipeline focused on revenue and profit
  • Operational dashboards showing ground truth in real time
  • Executive dashboards — a top-to-bottom view for leadership

How I think about systems

Long-lived systems, not isolated features.

01

Outcome-first

Features must map to revenue, retention or efficiency metrics owners care about.

02

Integrated by default

POS, CRM, messaging and analytics work as one stack — not stitched fragments.

03

AI-native

RAG, vector search and automation that cut manual decision-making for teams.

04

Cost-aware

Architected for performance and scale while keeping infrastructure lean and predictable.

Writing

Notes & essays.
