Founder at aibusiness.vc, developing AI agent test purchases to reveal what customer-facing bots actually do.
What I'm looking for
At aibusiness.vc, I’m building a consumer quality assessment system for business AI agents. Its test purchases compare what a company promised, what its bot said, and what the system actually recorded; I’ve published the methodology openly and built a reference pilot with NeoMundi.
Before AI, I assessed public services through independent evaluations and mystery shopping, and authored the Information Openness Standard for the Perm City Duma. My work has also included CSR programme evaluation, teaching decision-making and public oversight, and supporting impact-investment fundraising and B2B sales.
