Booking founder spots for July 2026

Netherlands · Working worldwide

Your business has problems AI can fix.
Let me find them.

I work inside founder-led businesses, learn how the work really moves, and put AI exactly where it earns its keep. Real hours saved, real money back, none of the hype.

How we work

An 8-week sprint, then ongoing

Measured in

Hours back in your week

Sound familiar?

These are the conversations I have with every new client.

You're doing the same thing 40 times a week

Copying data between tools. Chasing the same updates. Rewriting the same email with a different name on top. You know it's wasteful. You've just never had the time to fix it.

You've tried AI tools. They didn't stick.

Six subscriptions, used twice. The tools were never the problem. Nobody ever mapped them to the way your business actually works.

You're paying people to do a computer's job

Not because your team isn't valuable, but because nobody has worked out which parts of their day should be automated, freeing them for the work that genuinely needs a human.

You don't know what you don't know

AI moves fast, and keeping up with it isn't your job. It's mine. You need someone in it full-time who can cut through the noise and tell you what deserves your attention and what doesn't.

Why me

I'm not a consultant who read about AI. I'm an operator who fixed his own businesses with it.

I build and run businesses across e-commerce, consumer goods, technology, and app development. Different industries, but the same trap every time: as each one grew, so did the pile of repetitive, low-value work. The reporting, the admin, the copy-and-paste that quietly swallows a founder's week.

So I fixed it where it hurt first, in my own companies. I found where the hours were really going, then handed the draining parts to AI, built properly and maintained properly. The result was never a flashy demo. It was hours returned, a calmer team, and my attention back on the work only I could do.

FelixLab.ai is me doing that for other founders. Everything I put into your business, I've already proven in mine, with real money on the line. No theory. No hype. Only what genuinely works.

E-commerce

Online retail & DTC brands

Consumer Goods

Physical products at scale

Technology

Software & digital services

App Development

Building & shipping apps

…and a few more in between.

How it works

An 8-week sprint to buy back your time, then a partnership to keep it.

We start by taking the work you dread off your plate. Then I stay on, hand in hand, to keep it running and to keep finding the next thing draining your week. AI that's installed once and abandoned is worth almost nothing. Continuity is the entire point.

01

The map

Week 1

I spend real time with you and your team, watching how the work actually moves, not how the org chart says it should. I'm looking for the repetitive, draining tasks that eat your week and quietly wear you down.

02

The diagnosis

Week 2

You get a clear, honest picture: where AI will save you time, where it won't, and the exact order we tackle things in. No vague advice. Specific tools, specific workflows, specific hours returned to your week.

03

The build

Weeks 3–6

I implement. Not a report handed over from a distance, but the real thing: automations built, tools set up, your team trained to use them. If something breaks, I fix it. The goal is working systems, not impressive slides.

04

Go live

Weeks 7–8

Everything is running and adopted, and you can feel the time coming back. This is the exact point where most AI projects quietly die: installed, then left to drift the moment something changes. So this is where we don't stop.

The partnership

Ongoing

A simple monthly retainer. I keep your systems healthy as the business changes, train new people as they arrive, and every month we find the next task worth handing to AI. The time you get back compounds. Month after month, you do less of what drains you and more of what only you can do.

The only AI question that matters

What did you do yesterday that AI could be doing today?

The best operators have stopped guarding their work. They give away everything that doesn't need their hands on it.

Then they build a system to run it, and they let it run. The output stops being something you chase. Your attention moves to the system instead.

That is where real leverage lives. Building that system with you is exactly what I do.

The whole point

You didn't start a business to do admin.

My job is to find the work that drains you, the tasks you avoid, postpone, or quietly resent, and hand them to AI. Not to replace your people, but to give you back the hours, so you can spend them on the work that actually energises you.

Off your plate

  • Inbox triage and follow-ups
  • Pulling the same reports every week
  • Copying data between tools
  • Drafting proposals and quotes
  • Scheduling and rescheduling
  • Chasing updates from the team

Back on your calendar

  • Talking to your customers
  • Closing the deals that matter
  • Building the actual product
  • Thinking about where you're headed
  • Coaching your people
  • Your evenings and weekends back

Is this for you?

I work best with a specific kind of founder.

This is a good fit if…

  • You run a business with 5 to 50 people
  • Decisions still run through you or a small leadership team
  • You know AI matters but don't have the time to work it out
  • You've tried tools before and they didn't deliver
  • You want someone to own the outcome, not just hand you advice
  • You're willing to change how you work if it means doing less of the boring stuff

Probably not if…

  • You want a fifty-page strategy document
  • You need someone to run your entire tech stack
  • You're shopping purely on price
  • You want AI to replace your team (that isn't what this is)

A note from Felix: I take on only a few clients at a time so I can do the work properly. If that sounds like you, get on the list and I'll be in touch personally.

By application
