🎙️ Discover the essential steps to prepare your company for AI, the common myths and fears holding leaders back, and powerful stories about capturing critical knowledge before it walks out the door. Sebastian shares how his childhood fascination with tech and creativity grew into a mission to help businesses future-proof through AI workflows, agent automation, and strategies for knowledge retention—especially in a retiring workforce.
Plus: Favorite tech tools, smart contract readiness, and why AI alone isn’t enough—unless you know how to implement it successfully.
Whether you’re AI-curious, Web3-wary, or simply looking for smarter ways to run your business, this episode is packed with actionable insights and inspiring real-world examples.

3 Key Takeaways:
1. Start With Foundations, Not Tech:
Before launching into AI, ensure your processes and data systems are solid. AI’s true value comes after you’ve mapped your workflows and organized your knowledge—otherwise, you’re building on sand.
2. Prioritize Quick Wins for Buy-In:
Don’t overhaul everything at once! Identify low-hanging-fruit use cases (like automating follow-ups or capturing “tribal knowledge” from senior staff) that show value fast and build momentum inside the organization.
3. Testing and Compliance Matter:
It’s not enough to simply launch an AI system—regular testing for accuracy, compliance, and user experience is crucial. Sebastian’s new venture specializes in AI/agent testing to ensure solutions aren’t just fast and cheap, but truly better.
