Most developers build exactly what you ask for. After 20 years as a product manager and engineer, I figure out what's actually worth building first — then ship the internal tools and AI automations that hotels, hostels, and service companies need. Fixed price. Live in weeks, not quarters.
Map where time disappears, handoffs break, and manual work keeps piling up.
Ranked automation ideas by leverage, complexity, and business value.
A concrete model of the tool before you commit build money.
Clear scope, recommendation, and a build number before work begins.
Before you commit to a build: you leave with the structure, prototype, and quote needed to decide whether the project is worth doing at all.
Built for hospitality & SMB service operations
Your team is drowning in repetitive work — guest emails, housekeeping schedules, reports, manual data entry. You know software could fix it. What you don't know yet is exactly which tool is worth paying for.
So you either keep absorbing the cost manually, or hand a vague brief to a freelancer who builds precisely what you said — not what you needed. Then reality arrives.
The right tool is rarely obvious on day one — it's uncovered by understanding how your operation actually runs. I spend a focused week figuring out what's worth building, quote it at a fixed price, then ship fast with AI-accelerated development and senior review on every line.
Sit with how your operation actually works day to day.
Decide what's truly worth building — and what isn't.
A fixed price and a spec, before any build commitment.
Ship a working version fast — something your team can use.
Test against real data so AI behaves before it meets a guest.
Live, documented, and yours — with support if you want it.
No hourly meter, no scope-creep invoices, no wondering where the budget went. The Scoping Week produces a fixed quote — and that's the number, whether the build takes me one week or three.
Quoted up front from the scoping spec. My speed is my problem, not your invoice.
Short recorded walkthroughs showing exactly what's been built and why.
Most builds reach production in two to six weeks, not two to six quarters.
Every automation is tested against real data before it touches a real customer.
You deal with the person building it — no account managers, no telephone game.
Every engagement begins with a paid Scoping Week. From there, most clients move into an AI ops automation build. Need ongoing product thinking? That's available too.
One focused, paid week to understand your operation, find the highest-leverage thing to automate, and leave you with a spec, a clickable prototype, and a fixed-price build quote — whether or not you build it with me.
The build itself, at a price agreed before we start. Guest and customer email triage, internal tools, housekeeping and scheduling platforms, document processing — the repetitive work that quietly drains your team, handled.
Senior product thinking on demand — for teams that have developers but need someone to decide what's actually worth building, write the spec, and keep delivery pointed at outcomes.
Start small with a low-risk scoping engagement, then move into a fixed-price build only if the numbers make sense for you.
€2,500 fixed
One week. You walk away with a spec, a prototype, and a fixed-price build quote — yours to keep even if you build elsewhere.
from €8,000 fixed
The build, quoted from your scoping spec. Most automation projects land between €8k–€15k, agreed before a single line is written.
Fractional product leadership is billed as a monthly retainer — let's talk about fit.
Freelancers build what you ask. Agencies bill the hours and hand you an account manager. I scope it like a product manager and ship it like a senior engineer — for one fixed price.
If your team's time disappears into repetitive work that software should be handling, a Scoping Week will pay for itself fast.
Hotels, hostels & short-stay operators
SMB service companies with manual back-office work
Teams buried in guest or customer email
Operations run on spreadsheets & group chats
Businesses curious where AI actually fits — and where it doesn't
Owners who want a fixed price before they commit
Product Manager · Engineer · Builder of operations software
I've spent more than 20 years across software development, startups, product management, and cloud architecture — starting as a hands-on developer building SaaS and web apps, then moving into product and engineering leadership. That combination is the whole point: most developers build what you ask for, but I figure out what's actually worth building first.
This is my solo practice, focused on the businesses I know best: hospitality and SMB service operations, in Prague, Czechia, and across EU markets. I pair senior product judgment with AI-accelerated development, which means I can scope the right tool like a product manager and ship it fast at a fixed price.
Start with a Scoping Week. In five focused days you'll get a spec, a prototype, and a fixed-price quote — and a clear answer on whether it's worth building at all. Low risk, high signal.
I'll review your note and reach out within one business day to find a time. Talk soon.
