Most AI conversations I have with CEOs and CFOs start the same way: "We know we need to do something with AI, but we're not sure what will actually move the business forward." That's where I come in. I help executives separate the signal from the noise. Which AI investments make sense for your business? What should you build first? How do you measure if it's working? And more importantly, how do you avoid spending millions on projects that end up as expensive demos? I run STX Next's AI and Data practice. We're a 20-year-old engineering company (started as a Python shop, now 200+ people across Poland and Mexico) that's delivered over 1,000 projects for mid-market and enterprise clients. Financial services, industrials, healthcare, energy. Companies that need systems that scale, not experiments that fade. My team builds data platforms and AI systems that connect to real business problems. We work on Snowflake, Databricks, AWS, Azure, but the technology stack matters less than understanding what problem you're solving and what success looks like. Before any project starts, I ask the same question: "What decision will this system help you make faster or better?" If we can't answer that clearly, we probably shouldn't build it.
