The problem

You've tried AI. Nothing shipped.

A team member ran a ChatGPT experiment for a week and got bored. You hired a freelancer who disappeared after the kick-off. You read a Deloitte report, forwarded it round, and nothing shipped.

Meanwhile your competitors are compounding — they've got AI quietly writing their tenders, summarising their service calls, handling their first-line support. You haven't. And the gap is widening every quarter.

Sound familiar?

How it works

Five steps. Two weeks. No theatre.

  1. 01

    30-min discovery call

    Free. We listen, ask the hard questions, and tell you whether we're the right fit. If we're not, we'll tell you who is.

  2. 02

    Scope and contract

    Fixed price, fixed deliverables, signed inside the same week. No ambiguity. No change orders mid-project.

  3. 03

    We run the audit

    Two weeks. We interview your team, map your stack, and identify the three AI wins with the cleanest ROI.

  4. 04

    You get the roadmap

    A 20-page written plan plus a 90-minute live readout with your leadership team. Specific vendors, specific timelines, specific numbers.

  5. 05

    Optional: we build it

    Roll into the $17,999 Sprint and we ship the highest-ROI workflow with you. You keep the code, the accounts, the tooling.

Who we are

Operators first. Coaches second.

Jack Visick

Co-founder, AI Business Coach

Jack is a multi-business entrepreneur and operator. He founded and runs Coal & Co (hospitality group — pubs, hotels, F&B), Chef Pantry (marketplace for chefs and venues), Need (coffee brand), and Plateful (hospitality software). He has built, bought, and operated multiple companies across hospitality, brands, and technology — and has implemented AI inside every one of them. He's consulted for large enterprises, advised dozens of SMEs, helped launch Unbound Advertising Agency alongside family, and sits on the board of several operating businesses. Jack coaches from the inside: he's running the same integrations he's helping clients make.

Darren Skeats

Co-founder, AI Business Coach

Darren is a business operator and advisor who has worked with hundreds of SMEs. He's spent his career inside small and mid-market businesses helping founders make the hard decisions — pricing, team, ops, growth, and the messy middle — and has a rare ability to see the real problem behind the stated one. At AI Business Coach, Darren pairs his operator instincts with Jack's AI integration work to make sure every engagement ships something a business will actually adopt, not a deck that gets shelved.

Work for us

We're hiring operators, engineers, and consultants.

We're a small team growing against serious demand. If you've built inside real businesses, shipped AI into production, or ran the ops of a company that scaled, we want to meet you.

The bar is operator-grade. The work is varied. The pay is competitive and we share the upside.

Send a CV or LinkedIn, a short note on why this, and a link to something you've built or shipped.

  • AI Engineer

    Full-time or contract

    Ship working AI into client businesses. Claude Code, Cursor, n8n, and the API of the week. You care more about the thing being used than the thing being perfect.

  • Delivery Consultant

    Full-time or contract

    Run audits and sprints alongside Jack and Darren. Operator instincts, strong writing, senior stakeholder presence. Has sat inside a business before, not just observed one.

  • Operations Lead

    Part-time, growing

    Keep the engine running. Sales pipeline, client onboarding, invoicing, scheduling, CRM. Starts small and compounds into the backbone of the company.

  • Associate Coach

    Contract / revenue-share

    Senior operators or AI consultants who want a bench of work without a permanent seat. We'll pair you to engagements where your pattern library fits best.

Frequently asked

The questions we get.

  • You can. They'll give you a brilliant deck and a six-figure invoice. We're a tenth the price, twice the speed, and we've actually run operating businesses — not just studied them. If you're a mid-market business or smaller, the big four will be too slow, too expensive, and too generic for the problem you have.

Book a call

30 minutes. No pitch deck.

Founding coaches

We're looking for other AI business coaches to join us.

We're building a small group of founding AI business coaches. If you work with operators on real AI integration, not theory, we want to hear from you.

You get featured on aibusinesscoach.com, access to our lead pipeline, and a seat in a network of operators and coaches who actually ship. Tell us about yourself below.

Interested? Tell us about your work.

Email us with a short note on who you work with, what you've shipped, and a link or two to prove it. We come back to every application.
