01 · Hi, I'm Daniel

I spent 12 years as a knowledge worker in luxury goods and banking. I know what it feels like to waste your time on work that doesn't move the needle but still has to get done. Now I build AI employees for founder-led businesses so they can focus on the work that matters.

02 · The Framework

Every task in your business sits in one of four boxes.

The AI Employee Quadrant. Two axes — repetition and judgment — and four zones. Hover any zone to see what kind of AI employee belongs there.

◀ JUDGMENT ▶
TL
Human-Led
Low repetition · High judgment
Strategy, creative direction, relationships, negotiation. AI assists; the human owns the work.
TR
On-Demand
High repetition · High judgment
Proposals, complex client comms, application reviews, briefs. You send the task; AI does the heavy lifting; you stay in the loop.
BL
On-Demand
Low repetition · Low judgment
One-off formatting, transcribing a recording, summarising a doc. Push the task to the AI when needed.
BR
Autonomous
High repetition · Low judgment
Booking reminders, invoice follow-ups, daily reports, review requests. Fully delegated; runs without being asked.
◀ REPETITION ▶

Hover a zone to see what kind of AI employee belongs there, or who belongs there instead.

Type 01
On-Demand AI Employee
You send a task; they produce; you review.
Type 02
Autonomous AI Employee
Set up once; runs on schedule; you monitor.
03 · How to think about it

Think of it like hiring a junior. Train them. Check their work. Trust them more as they prove themselves.

STEP 01
Train
You show them how the work gets done.
STEP 02
Supervise
Outputs reviewed before use. 2 to 4 weeks.
STEP 03
Trust
Quality consistent, they run on their own.
STEP 04
Free up
You focus on the work only you can do.
05 · Where can AI help me most?

Map your work. See where AI fits.

List a handful of things your team did this week. Two questions per task. The quadrant fills itself in on the right.

Hours / week
Does it repeat?
Does it need judgment?

Your next hire shouldn't be human.

Most of what you'd hire someone to do, an AI employee can already do, without sick days.
