Founder & CEO · PolkuAI

Before AI, there was basketball. Competitive sport taught me what it means to put in the long-term work and to focus on what actually moves you forward. That same drive now carries over into entrepreneurship and AI.

I build and install AI systems for businesses using practical tools. I don't stop at theory, I build things that actually work and install them ready to use.

Why we exist

For most businesses, putting AI to work is still hard. Not for technical reasons, but because the right partner is missing. We fill that gap.

The goal is to bring every client an AI that genuinely makes their work more efficient and saves time. Not a demo, not a one-off experiment. A working system that shows up in everyday work.

Our values

How we do things

Practicality first
We don't sell visions or hype. We build solutions that work in everyday operations and deliver measurable results. If something doesn't work, we say so directly.
Transparency
The client always knows what is being built, on what schedule, and how we are progressing. No surprises, no hidden costs, just clear collaboration from start to finish.
Speed
The first working version is often in use within a couple of weeks. We build, test and learn fast, no months-long planning projects before a single line is written.
Long-term commitment
The best AI solution evolves over time. We are in it for the long haul. We don't disappear after the project, we grow alongside your business.
