Use AI to build, automate, and grow a real business
Hi, I'm Alfred. I've bootstrapped, automated, and exited businesses, and worked on emerging technology projects with organizations including Harvard.
I share the guides, prompts, and checklists I wish I'd had—free, in full. If you need hands-on help, I also consult, build automations, and make apps.

Work with me
Choose where you need a hand.
Consulting
Bring the thing that's stuck.
We'll look at what's stuck, your tools, and your workflow—then find the simplest useful next step.
One focused session. No retainer.
Automations
I build AI automations around the tools you already use, then hand over something you and your team can actually run.
Scoped one workflow at a time.
Apps
For bigger software projects, I build through Big Push Studio, my app studio.
From a rough idea to something people can use.
Strategy → design → build → launch
