"Empower knowledge work and provide space for human ingenuity to flourish"
We believe that humans should be doing the work of humans, not robots. Humans are creative, humans think critically, and humans are inspired. So much of the work people do day-to-day is none of these things. It's a repetitive, uncreative slog. When we solve these business problems, we can utilize human brainpower to solve real problems and scale our businesses past the roadblocks traditional growth presents.

About Me
My name is John-Carlos Saponara
Over the years the teams I've worked with have shifted and changed with each industry but the mission has remained the same - empower knowledge work and provide space for human ingenuity to flourish.
​
I started working with LLMs and AI tools very soon after their introduction to the public 2.5 years ago, and I've been building functional business solutions with them since.
I have experience working directly with CEO's, CTO's, and CIO's at Fortune 500 companies identifying key inefficiencies within a business and remedying them by building and deploying applications that scale.
