Description

AI Tech Lead & Ex-CTO. I build AI products that run in production — not POCs that gather dust.

15 years of tech experience, including 9 years as co-founder and CTO of 3 startups. I've raised, built, scaled, pivoted, and sometimes shut down. I bring this operator's scar tissue to your project.

My latest venture: Veesual/Vidcap.ai (since 2020), my first AI startup.

€4.5M raised in pre-seed + seed
Proprietary generative model (virtual try-on fashion): +93% conversion rate, +22% average order value for Lululemon, La Redoute, Claudie Pierlot, Jules…
17M outfits generated by 1.5M active shoppers
Tech team of 20 recruited and managed
Complete pivot to AI video generation (Vidcap.ai) in 2025 — from image to video, zero-prompt, delivered on Shopify
Alumnus Techstars Montreal AI 2020

Before that:two other entrepreneurial ventures as co-founder & CTO (Cleep, social shopping network — 100k users; Webmilk, email monetization platform). Plus 6 years of technical leadership before launching.

My focus for 2026: AI agents in production.

I spend my days with Claude Code, Cursor, MCP, LangGraph, and the tools redefining the industry. I don't just track AI trends — I build with AI every day, understanding the pitfalls.

I can help you with:

Design and production deployment of AI agents (Claude API, OpenAI, MCP, LangGraph, n8n)
Fractional CTO for non-tech founders and SMEs
AI audit and strategy: where to start, what to avoid, what ROI to aim for
Rapid prototyping of a solid MVP in 4-6 weeks
Architecture for AI-native systems

What I don't do:PowerPoint consulting, POCs that never launch, "let's refactor the mobile app from scratch".
