BLACKTHREAD.DEV — AUTOMATION & OPERATIONS CONSULTING

I've been automating
human work since
before AI had a name.

I automate the manual work and data headaches costing your business time and money — then hand it off so your team runs it without me. I use AI to build the systems. You keep the results.

THE PROBLEM

Your biggest time drains don't have to be manual.

Every business has them — the spreadsheets nobody fully trusts, the copy-paste tasks that eat entire afternoons, the data scattered across five different places. Your team is doing work that a system should handle automatically. That gap compounds every week.

The problem isn't that you need technology. The problem is that nobody has sat down with you, mapped what's actually broken, and built a system that handles it automatically — without creating a new tool nobody uses.

That's exactly what BlackThread does. I find the operational problems costing you the most, automate them, and leave your team running something that actually works. AI is how I build it. Results are what you get.

  • Your team is doing work manually that a system should handle automatically
  • Your data is scattered, inconsistent, or stuck in formats nobody can use
  • You've tried tools before and they added complexity instead of removing work
  • You don't have time to figure out what to automate first
  • You need someone who builds the automated system, not just recommends one

THE STORY

This isn't my first time doing your job for a computer.

— Two decades of automating tedious work, before it had a name.

My first job in IT was indexing documents — 150 records, lowercase, that the client needed in uppercase. My supervisor ran a single SQL query and fixed all 150 in seconds. I was hooked. Not on the technology — on the idea that you could train a machine to do the tedious work for you.

That instinct followed me to the Canadian oil sands, where I spent six months rebuilding a database nobody had touched in years, then built dozer inspection systems, piping inspection automation, and anything else that someone was wasting hours doing manually.

When I landed a piping inspection role that required 8 hours of copy-paste work per day, I didn't accept it. I built a system that vetted, imported, and scheduled all inspection data in a few clicks — with no mistakes. That's been my approach to every job since.

Today I work in cybersecurity, where I spearheaded AI adoption across my team — building workflows, running training sessions, and helping drive a company-wide mandate to integrate AI into every department. I've seen what it looks like when an organization goes from resistant to fluent.

BlackThread is that expertise brought to businesses like yours. You don't need a data scientist. You need someone who's been automating your kind of problem for twenty years.
