Less repetitive work.
More time for what matters.

AI and automation can help with the sorting, chasing and repeated tasks. You bring the judgement, the creativity and the relationships.

Here’s how I put that into practice in my own business.

Human support, in practice.EyesFwd helps people find useful ways to work with technology, then builds the tools and systems around them.

Meet my AI team.

Seven roles I’ve configured to help run EyesFwd. These are AI versions of me, not employees. Choose a role to see the support it provides and the decisions I keep.

About this example

Support that joins up.

The useful part is what happens between the roles. Shared notes and clear handovers help the next head pick up the work without making me explain everything again.

Illustrated handovers based on the roles described in my talk. Each task follows its own permissions and checks.

Different working days.
The same human purpose.

The starting point is a person and a problem. These projects explore how technology can support the work they do.

Sheila’s day on the road.

Betty is being developed to help with diary checks, travel time and booking administration. Sheila brings the customer relationship and sales judgement.

Virtual Passenger · Work in progress

More attention for guests.

Voice-and-visual demonstration · Further development needed

Less chasing around a job.

Two Tones brings estimating and job information into practical tools. The people still assess the work, coordinate the trades and solve the problems on site.

Human-assist.
Room for people to grow.

My aim is to use technology to support people: take repetitive work off their hands and give them more room for judgement, creativity and relationships.

As EyesFwd grows, I want to bring more people into the business, with technology supporting their work from the start.

For another business, that begins with listening to the people doing the work, involving them in the changes and agreeing what stays in human hands.
