I'm Alexander Carr. I design and build bespoke AI systems — custom CRMs, internal knowledge assistants, and workflow automation — shaped around how your business already runs. Frontier tooling, delivered lean, remote, and in plain English.
I started fixing networks and servers in 2014, long before “AI” showed up on anyone's invoice. That grounding is the whole point: I know how a real business actually runs, where the friction hides, and what breaks when you bolt shiny new tech onto old systems.
Today I bring frontier AI tooling to companies that could never justify a Bay-Area consultancy — one operator, no account managers, no markup.
Most of my week. I build AI directly into how your business runs — not a chatbot bolted on the side, but custom systems shaped around your real documents, your workflow, and your team.
Right-sized IT for small and mid-size business — migrations, M365 / Google Workspace, identity, networking, and vendor sanity-checks so you don't overpay.
FAA Part 107 drone work around the Twin Cities — commercial real estate and construction progress. A side project I still enjoy, not the main event.
Built an internal system that handles document upload, CRM, and client onboarding end-to-end — with AI guiding intake, organizing records, and moving each new client through onboarding automatically.
Built a system that lets an airport maintenance shop search across their internal manuals and pull the exact procedure they need in seconds — every answer tied back to the source document and page.
Rebuilt a manual request pipeline into a connected workflow — requests come in, get triaged, and reach the right person automatically. Days to hours.
Stitched ortho-imagery and edit-ready video on a standing schedule across commercial sites — delivered same-week, FAA Part 107 compliant.
The smallest useful thing in two weeks beats the perfect thing in six months. AI is no exception.
Especially for anything that touches money, contracts, or a customer's inbox. AI drafts; people decide.
If you can't measure it, you can't trust it. Evals before scale, every time.
If I can't explain it to the owner of the business in ten minutes, the design is wrong.
Tell me what's eating your time. I'll tell you straight whether AI, a smarter workflow, or better IT is the right tool — and what it'd take. One or two new engagements at a time.
