I build the systems. Your business runs on them. Your people get to do the work they were hired to do.
Analytics, automation, and AI infrastructure for companies that are done running on spreadsheets and gut instinct.
Book a 30-Minute CallThe Hidden Cost of Running on Guesswork
You have the tools. Power BI is licensed. HubSpot is live. Someone built dashboards at some point. And yet your leadership meeting still turns into a 20-minute argument about which number is right — and then you move on without actually deciding anything.
- Your analysts are spending 15-plus hours a week pulling reports that should run automatically
- Your CRM has data nobody fully trusts, so the sales team keeps its own spreadsheet, and revenue forecasts become a negotiation between two competing versions of reality
- Your outbound prospecting still depends on someone sitting down and manually working a list
- The Power BI deployment your last consultant handed off looks great in screenshots. Nobody uses it. The person who built it is gone.
None of this is a tools problem. You don’t need another platform. You need the underlying infrastructure — the data model, the pipeline, the reporting logic, the automation — to actually work. And you need someone who will build it and hand it off so your team can own it. That’s the gap I fill.
I build the system that should exist.
I fix the data infrastructure. I automate the reporting. I build the prospecting system. And when I’m done, your team runs it — because I build for handoff, not for dependency.
Every engagement starts with the same question: where is the most expensive operational friction right now? Sometimes it’s a reporting environment that takes four days to produce numbers that are already out of date. Sometimes it’s a CRM pipeline nobody believes. Sometimes it’s outbound prospecting that’s still manual because nobody has built the system that should exist.
I work with Power BI, Tableau, Looker, Salesforce, HubSpot, dbt, Python, SQL, and Excel. Tool-agnostic: I’ll work in whatever you already have. I work alone. The person scoping your project is the person building it.
Start where it hurts most.
Assessment
A focused diagnostic — 2 to 3 weeks, one deliverable: a prioritized roadmap that tells you exactly what’s broken, what to fix first, and what the fix looks like. Most clients start here.
Learn more →Prospecting & Sales Automation
Automated outbound systems integrated with your CRM. Prospect research, sequencing, enrichment, and routing — built on your existing stack, not a new platform you’ll need to manage forever.
Learn more →Analytics Rebuild
A ground-up rebuild of your KPI framework, data pipeline, and executive reporting environment. From “which spreadsheet is right?” to a live dashboard your leadership team actually trusts.
Learn more →Enterprise Analytics
For organizations ready to build a governed, self-service analytics environment that scales with the org — semantic layer, data governance model, role-based access.

Assessment
- End-to-end workflow map with owners, handoffs, and cycle times
- Gap analysis with actual cost of each bottleneck in analyst-hours and rework cycles
- Prioritized roadmap with ROI estimates for each fix
- Go/no-go recommendation — if you can fix it internally, I’ll tell you what to focus on
Not a slide deck of observations. Not a generic audit. A concrete, scoped plan of action built on direct examination of your tools, your data, and your workflows. Standalone deliverable — you are not obligated to proceed further.
Build & Handoff
- Automated data pipelines from all relevant source systems — no more manual exports
- Live dashboards built on your existing BI tool with KPI definitions your leadership agreed on
- Complete documentation and runbook so your team can maintain and extend without calling me
- Training for whoever will own the system internally
- 30-day check-in after handoff
I work alone. No junior handoffs. I scope it, build it, and hand it off — and the person you talk to in week one is the same person finishing in week twelve. I work in your existing tools; you don’t need new software to work with me.
Real numbers from past engagements
At Paytronix, the reporting process for weekly business reviews was running 14 analyst-hours per cycle. After rebuilding the pipeline and dashboard layer: 3 hours. That’s 11 hours a week back for actual analysis, every week.
For a national restaurant group, the month-end close was a five-day process. After rebuilding the pipeline: same-day, from the first close after the system went live.
“We went from ‘which spreadsheet is right?’ to ‘what should we do about this trend?’ — and freed up 11 analyst-hours a week.”
Built an automated prospecting system for a boutique M&A advisory. Within weeks, a warm lead generated by the system matched with one of his buy-side clients — a deal that wouldn’t have surfaced manually.
One person. The same one throughout.
I’m Stuart Wilson — fractional AI and analytics architect. Four degrees (economics, applied economics, MBA, architecture), five-plus years at Paytronix Systems as Director of Data Insights Productization, and an unhealthy amount of time building production AI agent systems in my own practice.
I’m not a strategy consultant. I build things that work, document them so your team can run them, and leave. I work with 100 to 500 person companies, I work alone, and the systems I run my own business on are the same ones I’d build for yours.
What does the 30-minute call actually cover?
You describe what’s broken. I tell you whether I’ve seen it before and what fixing it typically involves. We agree on whether a scoped diagnostic makes sense. You leave with a clear next step — even if that step is “not right now” or “talk to someone else first.”
Do I need to have my data in order before we start?
No. If your data were in order, you wouldn’t need me. The Assessment is specifically designed to work from your current state — messy pipelines, inconsistent KPIs, and all. I’ve never walked into an environment that was too broken to assess.
Is this one person or a team?
One person. Me. The person who scopes it, prices it, builds it, and hands it off is the same person throughout. No project managers, no junior analysts doing the actual work while I disappear. The tradeoff: I work with a small number of clients at a time and scope tightly.
“Tell me what’s broken. We’ll figure out if I can fix it.”
