About René

I support SMEs and mid-sized companies in optimizing and transforming their business processes using artificial intelligence, no-code, and automation.

My unique selling proposition? I'm not a technician discovering your business. I am a business leader and consultant who uses technology to solve concrete business problems.

For over 25 years, I have been involved in finance, management control, credit management, business development, project management, and activity steering. This experience allows me to quickly understand the challenges faced by leaders and identify the most relevant performance levers.

I analyze existing processes, identify time-consuming tasks, duplicate entries, error risks, and inefficiencies, then I design pragmatic solutions that simplify daily operations for teams and improve data quality.

I intervene in particular on:

• Automation of administrative and operational processes
• Integration of AI into daily activities
• Creation of custom no-code business applications
• Financial steering and automated dashboards
• Cash management and management control
• Credit management and payment tracking
• Optimization of sales processes and CRM
• HR workflows and document management
• Digitalization and continuous improvement of organizations

My goal is not to multiply tools, but to build simple, effective solutions adapted to the realities of the business.

I believe that SMEs today can benefit from the same performance levers as large organizations through AI and automation, provided we start from business needs and not from technology.

My mission: to transform processes into levers for growth, profitability, and peace of mind for leaders.

    • An approach focused on simplicity, efficiency, and user adoption
