I build AI that does real work.
I'm Michael Sewell. I've written software for ten years, and today I engineer AI systems that find, sort, draft and answer from your own information, then keep them running. Co‑Founder at Automate Impact, Technical Advisor at Quantum Academy AI.

AI that takes real work off people's desks.
An applied AI engineer turns AI into working software people use every day. Not a chatbot bolted onto a website: tools built around how your team actually works, tested on real cases, and kept running after launch.
Assistants that know your business
They answer questions from your own documents and records, show where the answer came from, and say so when it isn't there.
Tools that sort, score and flag
They read what comes in, like requests, applications or leads, and rank or route it so people start with what matters.
Automations between your tools
Work moves between the apps you already use on its own, so nobody spends the afternoon copying and pasting.
Custom apps and websites
Software built for your team, not bent to fit it, then kept updated, backed up and secure after launch.
The work further down this page comes from the same engineering. The 3D walkthrough is code I wrote, and Quest Collective TV is a news channel I produce end to end with AI.
Have a task your team does by hand every week? That is usually where AI helps first.
Tell me what you need built →The same engineering, pointed at pictures and video.
The 3D walkthroughs, video and flyers come out of the same code and AI tools I build with every day. Each has its own page with real examples.
Your floor plan, furnished, in hours.
Send the brochure you already have. Every unit type comes back as a furnished cutaway, a 3D model buyers can spin in their browser, and a walkthrough clip. No site visit, no CAD files.
Their brochure floor plan
Show up every week. Film nothing.
I build your voice and on-screen look once, then write, produce, caption and brand your videos every month. The clip here is Quest Collective TV, a news channel I make end to end with AI hosts.
Flyers that move. Tributes that stay with people.
Animated flyers for birthdays, events and memorials, plus tribute videos that bring old photos back to life. Made fast, because these dates don't wait.
An Applied AI Engineer, still building.
People call me Mike. For ten years I've built software for a living: websites, internal tools, and the systems that take work people do by hand and make it run on its own. Today that work is applied AI: putting AI to work inside real organizations, on real tasks, and keeping it dependable after launch.
