AI, automation and custom systems for Quebec SMBs
Your operations shouldn’t live in 12 different apps.
I turn manual tracking, spreadsheets, email threads and ill-fitting software into one simple operations system: information in one place, and part of the work done for you.

Your information is everywhere. Except in one place.
- Some of the information lives in spreadsheets. The rest, in email.
- Employees text each other just to get work unblocked.
- Accounting runs in one app, projects in another — and the two don’t talk.
- Someone is constantly gluing the pieces back together: searching, re-keying, chasing, checking.
What it costs youDouble data entry, information nobody can find, forgotten follow-ups, errors, decisions made too late — and money left on the table.
How I work
Three steps, in this order. Nothing gets built until we understand where the work is being lost.
- Week 1
Operations review
We look at how your business really runs — and find where time, information or money is being lost.
- Next
Operations system
We centralize your most expensive process around the way you work. Not the other way around.
- After that
Smart automation
Once the data and the process are reliable, the system starts doing part of the work.
When artificial intelligence speeds up a step, it works on structured data, with guardrails and human approval. It’s a mechanism, not the product.
Software gives you screens. A system does part of the work.
The system prepares, flags and follows up. Your people stay in control and make the calls.

What I put in place, depending on where the work is lost.
- Getting started
AI consultant for SMBs
Find the two or three tasks where AI really pays off in your business, then implement them.
- Documents
AI invoice and document processing
Invoices, purchase orders, price lists: read, checked and entered without anyone re-typing them.
- Agents
AI agents
An assistant that handles requests, drafts quotes and replies, and asks before it acts.
- Processes
Process automation
The double entry, reports and follow-ups redone every week, handed to the machine.
- Systems
Custom software
When a spreadsheet has become your management system. Or when the old system needs replacing.
Your tools stay in place. The system replaces what no longer works and connects to what already does, depending on the access available.
- ERP
- QuickBooks
- Procore
- Outlook
- Excel
- Files and exports
- API
Case study: independent grocery store, Quebec
$56,000a year, recovered from a single manual task.
Read the full case- The problem
Re-typing thousands of prices, every week
The team keyed their suppliers’ prices into the point-of-sale system by hand: the equivalent of a part-time job, not counting typing errors or the margin lost by ordering without comparing.
- The system
The machine copies, the team approves
It imports every supplier’s price list, compares prices product by product and prepares the update — connected to the existing point-of-sale system, without stopping operations.
- The result
Time recovered, margin as a bonus
Manual entry is gone, and the business now buys at the best price on every order.

- for a first review of your operations
I don’t sell technology. I solve business problems.
Every project starts with how your operations really run — where time is lost, where information gets stuck, where money leaks out without anyone noticing — and ends with a system that does part of the work. No middlemen, no jargon, no surprises.
- Understand before building. We map your real operations and tools before proposing anything.
- One point of contact. You talk to the person who analyzes your operations and builds the system.
- Visible progress. The system is delivered in steps: you see each piece working before we go further.
