Hey guys, JC hereIf you told me 6 months ago that I’d be building an AI development firm, working with clients, leading a team, and gearing up for major meetings across the country… I would’ve laughed. Not because I didn’t think it was possible but because back then, I was just posting daily. Learning in public. Tinkering with agents. Writing about what I found interesting. I was just curious. That’s all it was. No grand business plan. No secret growth hack. Just showing up. Every day, I shar...

Hey everyone — JC here. The past couple of days have been a real highlight for me. I had the chance to sit down with two businesses, both run by good friends, to walk through some of the AI tools I’ve been working with lately. But this wasn’t just a surface-level “here’s what’s possible” kind of chat. We dug in. We opened up the toolbox. Explored different workflows, looked at real business pain points, and started figuring out where these tools could actually fit in their day-to-day operatio...

Hey y’all — JC here.Everyone wants to know the ROI of AI. “How much money will this save me?” “What’s the return?” “Will it replace someone on the team?” Fair questions. But here’s the truth I’ve seen firsthand: The real ROI of AI isn’t just money. It’s time, clarity, and better work.Let’s be honest, it’s rarely about the toolBusinesses don’t come to me saying: “Hey JC, can you install an AI chatbot?” They come saying: “We’re overwhelmed.” “Our team’s buried in admin.” “We know we’re wasting ...

Morning guys, JC here 6 months ago, I wouldn’t have believed you if you told me this. Next week, I’ll be sitting down with someone on the Top 200 Rich List of Australia. Talking all things AI, business, and how we might work together. Not because I chased some VC. Not because I posted some viral thread. But because I’ve been building day by day and backing myself. And more importantly because someone in my network opened the door. That’s the part people forget. Sometimes, the biggest opp...

Hey y’all — JC here.We talk a lot about what AI does for your business. Saves time. Reduces cost. Boosts output. All true. But there’s one benefit that’s rarely talked about and probably the most valuable: Headspace. Mental clarity. That feeling of not being mentally loaded 24/7.It started with something simpleA while back I automated a basic task I used to do every morning: → Checking three tools for updates → Noting down a few things for a team → Sending a quick summary message It wasn’t ro...

Hey y’all — JC here.Today’s post is a bit of an announcement. Something new. Something small. Something simple. But something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now: www.designless.ai is officially live. If you’re new here, you’re probably wondering… what’s that? Well, here’s the story:The problem I kept running intoOver the past few months working with clients — especially inside startups and lean businesses, I noticed a pattern: People want to start building with AI.

Hey y’all, JC here.Let’s talk about something that doesn’t get said enough: You don’t need to put AI in everything. You just need to know where it actually helps. I’ve been working with a lot of businesses lately across industries, sizes, stages and here’s what I keep noticing: Everyone wants “AI in the business.” Very few know what role it’s actually supposed to play.AI isn’t a checkboxYou don’t get a gold star for saying “we use AI.” There’s no prize for being early if the implementation do...

Hey Guys, JC Here Let’s talk about where we actually are with AI. If you’re a business owner still thinking “AI is just ChatGPT” you’re already behind. But it’s not your fault, the landscape shifts fast. Here’s a quick breakdown of the 3 big phases we’ve moved through: Phase 1: Ask a question, get an answer. The LLM boom. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. We all jumped in, asking questions, getting summaries, writing drafts. A huge unlock… but still manual. You had to copy/paste. You had to do somethi...

Hey Guys, JC Here. About a week ago, I had one of the biggest meetings of my career. A face-to-face with someone on the Australian Rich 200 list, a seasoned operator and someone with quite the resume. We sat down in Adelaide to walk through what we’re building at Designless.ai: Real AI agents. Built with intention. Designed to solve real business problems. It wasn’t just a pitch. It was a conversation. Fast forward to now and I just received an email from him. Not just saying “nice to meet yo...
