Today I'm excited to announce the launch of Paradox Machines.
Every company I've worked with has had the same data problem: different systems, no agreed definitions, leadership waiting days for answers that should take seconds. I've lived this at every level - as an analyst, a manager, and an executive. And I've seen it across 100+ companies as a consultant. The problem is identical everywhere. I post about it a lot 🙂
It stayed unsolved because fixing it required a data team, strong leadership, expensive tooling, organizational buy in (hardest part), and months of setup. That was only viable for the biggest companies that could prioritize their data. Smaller companies couldn’t even approach this problem, and data remained an after thought. This meant the big players could monetize and take advantage of their data asset, while the rest of the market had to watch from the sidelines.
AI changes that. We can now move faster, with a leaner team, at a price point that works for the mid-market. That's who we're building for. That's AI Services.
Paradox Machines is the data and AI layer for companies that need clean, reliable reporting & analytics but don't have the infrastructure or bandwidth to tackle it internally. We embed a lean, fractional data team and deploy our AI-enabled platform inside your cloud, normalize and standardize your data, according to your business logic, and let you bring your own interface - whether it's your BI tool, your favorite LLM provider, Excel, whatever works for you. Our focus is ensuring your data is clean, governed, reliable for your use case. No increasingly expensive SaaS. No bloated billable hours.
We’re live with a number of customers, and operate across Private Equity, Healthcare, E-commerce, and Manufacturing.
I've spent almost 20 years (‼️) watching this problem go unsolved. I’m done waiting. If these challenges sound familiar - let's talk!
