Technology Help That Actually Makes Sense

Practical solutions for real business problems, without the hype or unnecessary complexity.

01

AI Projects That Actually Make Sense

You're curious about AI for your business, but most of what you hear is either hype or way too complicated. I help you figure out if AI is right for your specific situation, and if it is, I build practical systems using language models that work with how you actually do business.

What you get: Either a working AI tool that genuinely helps your team, or honest advice that you're better off waiting.
02

Backend Systems That Just Work

You need reliable technology to support your product, but you don't want to overcomplicate things or break the bank. I build the behind-the-scenes systems your product needs - databases, APIs, and infrastructure that's solid but not over-engineered.

What you get: Technology that quietly does its job so you can focus on your business instead of technical problems.
03

Making Sense of Your Data

You have information scattered everywhere, but it's hard to see the big picture or know what's actually important. I help you organize and visualize your business data in ways that actually help you make better decisions.

What you get: Clear insights into what's working and what isn't, without drowning in charts and numbers.
04

Technical Guidance When You Need It

You're making technology decisions but aren't sure if you're heading in the right direction. I provide technical advice and help you think through your options, so you can make informed decisions about your technology investments.

What you get: Confidence in your tech choices, with someone who understands both the technical and business sides.

Hi, I'm Andrew Hellrigel

I'm someone who gets excited about making complicated technology actually useful for real businesses. While a lot of people in tech focus on what's theoretically possible, I'm more interested in what actually works when you have deadlines, budgets, and users who just want things to work.

I've been learning how to take cutting-edge stuff like AI and turn it into tools that people actually want to use. I'm finding that the best technology solutions are often the simplest ones - they just happen to be really well thought out.

Whether you're trying to figure out if AI makes sense for your business or you need someone to help build systems that actually work, I'd love to collaborate and tackle these challenges together.

1

Start with Understanding

We begin by really understanding your business and what you're trying to solve, not jumping straight to technology solutions.

2

Think It Through Together

The best solutions come from collaboration - your business knowledge combined with technical insight to find what actually works.

3

Build Thoughtfully

When we do build something, it's designed to work well with what you already have and grow with your business.
