Description

I help businesses eliminate repetitive manual work through AI-powered automation and smart integrations.

As founder of UNREAL Performance, I design and build generative-AI systems that automate operational and back-office processes for companies - reading and validating data from complex, unstructured documents (invoices, delivery notes, technical files) and feeding it into their business systems with minimal manual work.

What I do:

AI & LLM implementation - document data extraction (OCR + AI), entity validation, AI agents, and assistants that handle real operational tasks. I work with the Anthropic Claude and OpenAI APIs and RAG architectures.

Workflow automation with n8n - connecting the tools a business already uses (CRM, email, billing, WhatsApp, databases) so they work together with little to no manual input.

API integrations - linking systems that normally don't talk to each other.

AI voice & telephony - phone-screening and conversational flows using ElevenLabs and Bland.ai.

Full-stack development - when a project needs an app or dashboard around the automation. Stack: Next.js, React, Supabase, Cloudflare.

Before going all-in on AI, I spent years in senior operations leadership at a multinational, scaling a team from 0 to 100+ people. That means I don't just write code - I understand the business processes I'm automating and what actually moves the needle for a company.

I work with clients across Europe in English, Portuguese, French, and Spanish. If you have a process that feels like it should be automated, let's talk - tell me what's eating your team's time and I'll tell you how I'd fix it.
