I help decision makers decide faster—
by killing bad options before they cost you.

If you're here, someone sent you. Here's what I actually do.

What I Am

Decision Enforcement

Most consultants help you explore options. I eliminate them.

I run ideas, strategies, and AI initiatives through structured stress-tests designed to surface fatal flaws before capital, time, or reputation is committed.

The kill rate is 60-70%. That's not failure—that's the point.

What survives gets built. Fast. Production software in 48-72 hours, not months.

The Method

Three Outcomes. No Ambiguity.

PASS

The idea survives scrutiny

It gets built via XpressMVP

FAIL

Fatal flaw identified

You get clarity on why—and what to fix

INCONCLUSIVE

Missing information

One retest, then pass or consult

Every outcome is a decision. No "let's keep exploring." No "it depends."

This isn't advice. It's a verdict.

The Logic

The Economics Changed

Traditional consulting assumes building is expensive, so you minimise scope to reduce risk.

AI collapsed build costs. When production software takes 48 hours and costs under £5,000, you don't need to guess carefully. You need to decide quickly.

Speed isn't impatience. Speed is freedom from sunk-cost delusion.

You can't fall in love with a bad idea if you only invested two days in it.

Validation Framework

If There Is Proof

If This Works, You'll Know. If It Doesn't, You'll Know Faster.

A hard-nosed test to determine whether your idea survives contact with reality.

If You're Here

You're Probably One of These

  • A founder who's been burned before and wants someone who'll tell you the truth
  • An operator with a decision to make and no patience for exploration
  • A board member asking "what's our AI exposure?" and getting waffle in response
  • Someone from an institution checking whether I'm real

If you want encouragement, validation, or someone to brainstorm with—I'm not that person.

If you want a decision—let's talk.
