Your whole team is using AI. You're generating more than ever. So why isn't anything shipping faster?
The repeatable patterns we've seen actually move a P&L — not the demos that collapse in week two.
The stack choices, the integration tax, and the glue code nobody talks about in the launch video.
Unit costs, break-even timelines, the hidden human cost. Numbers first, narrative second.

Anthropic announced a $1.5B JV with Wall Street to deliver AI consulting at scale. Five independent operators discuss what that actually changes for SMBs — and why the answer is less than you think.
608% ROI. 4.2 days down to 6.8 hours. One small manufacturing team. Richard brings the case study that answers the question most operators are afraid to ask.
A founder vibe-coded a SaaS. Launched Friday. Dead by Sunday. How hard is it to get security right when you've written zero lines of code yourself?
Richard's surfing in Indonesia. Nataliya from LeadMark AI joins — enterprise change manager by day, SMB AI embedder by night — with the framing this panel's been circling for months: every 'AI implementation problem' is a change management problem in a tech t-shirt.
Pull the loose thread of the Claude Code source leak and you end up unpicking the whole economics of AI subscriptions. Is a $120 plan or $65 worth of API tokens the better bet once the maths is run?
Come join us at The Australian Hotel & Brewery in Rouse Hill for a casual after-work catch-up with people who are actually building with AI. Whether you're just getting started, your running automations, deploying agents, or just trying to get GPT to stop hallucinating, you'll fit right in. Cold drinks, good conversation, and dose of inspiration. This one's for the northwest Sydney crew, so no long commutes required. David will be there to kick things off (other speackers announcing soon), but honestly the best part is always the conversations that happen between attendees. Come along, grab a drink, and let's swap notes on what's working, what's broken, and what's got us excited right now.
