Build with Ian

Let’s build
something useful.

An AI workflow. An automation. A website or custom tool. Content that brings your expertise to life.

My consulting and implementation work happens through Disruptiv Solutions—the company I founded. You’ll work directly with me to choose a practical starting point and put it into use.

Have the idea, but not the technical brief? That’s a useful place to start.

From one workflow to a whole platform

Experience you can see.

You don’t need a whole platform to get started. A useful first project can tackle one repeat task in your day.

Ian’s real opportunity tracker, with review status and a next action for each lead

My own workflow / Research & follow-up

From scattered research
to a useful lead tracker.

I used Gemini to research speaking opportunities, organize them in Google Sheets, and prepare outreach drafts. Each lead has a source and a next action; I check the details before contacting anyone.

That’s a practical starting point for a business project: take one repeat process, decide what AI can prepare, and keep the decisions that need you in your hands.

My product / Community platform

A home for people and their ideas.

I designed and built LaunchBox, the platform that hosts my own community and several others. It brings learning, conversations, events, and AI tools together.

My own operating system / Command Center

Keep agent work connected to the business.

I built Command Center to keep my business context, assignments, recorded results, and next actions together. Agents work through their connected tools; I can inspect what came back and decide what happens next.

Client platform / 2025

AI for Business.

I built this shared AI workspace solo. It brought chat, creative tools, and business context into one platform and supported more than 1,600 users.
