Thibault Chazal

I support executives, investors, and funds in evaluating the technical, product, and AI robustness of their digital assets.

CTO as a Service for over 5 years, I conduct comprehensive technical, AI, and product audits to measure the real value, scalability, and technological maturity of a digital product.

My approach combines deep technical analysis, strategic product reading, and understanding of AI challenges – whether it involves internal models, API integrations (OpenAI, Claude, Mistral, etc.), or automation tools (RAG, agents, ML pipelines).
