Founder, OpenLabor · I build AI agents for ops teams

Engineering at École Centrale in France. I dropped out at 22, started my first company, and moved to Asia.

For a decade I built startups: affiliate marketing, media-buy, SaaS, fintech, Web3, gaming. Some worked, most did not, all of them taught me something. Three years ago I started automating my own businesses with AI. Then AI started running them. Now I help other founders do the same.

OpenLabor is the harness I wish existed when I started: the glue that turns raw AI models into actual employees that show up, learn your business, and ship work. On a call I scope yours honestly. If we are a fit, we build it together. If we are not, you leave with the plan.

The three-year head start I got the hard way, yours in 5 days.
