Shain LafazanI'm an engineer, team‑builder, and entrepreneur. I put AI agents into the workflows that matter, structure the systems and data underneath them, and align teams to run them.

What changes
Find the work agents can now do or speed up, and redesign it around them instead of bolting AI onto the old process.
Put the platform, data access, security and evals in place so agents run reliably in production, not just in a demo.
Align and train teams so people supervise, improve and extend the agents, and the gains stick after I step back.

Every engagement starts with a free intro call, then a fixed proposal within two business days. Work lands in your systems with weekly executive check-ins, then your team owns it.
Finding the work in your business that AI agents can now do or speed up, rebuilding those workflows and the systems under them, and helping your people adopt the new way of working. It starts with one workflow, not a company-wide program.
Established businesses, from growth-stage to mid-market, where a handful of workflows drive a lot of revenue or cost. Insurance, health care and other regulated industries are a specialty.
A fixed fee for each phase, agreed before work starts. No hourly meter, and no surprises on the invoice.
Yes, and that is the point. Work lands in your systems, reviewed by your people, and your team is trained to run and extend it after I step back.
Start with the executive workshop, or book an intro call and we will find the smallest useful step.
Pick the kind of conversation, then a time.
Bring the problem. If it's not a fit, I'll point you to someone or something that is.
For a workshop, assessment, pilot or ongoing partnership. You get a fixed proposal within two business days.
