AI Is Changing Everything. Most Businesses Don't Know Where to Start.
The gap between AI hype and AI reality is enormous. Businesses hear they need AI but don't know what's possible, what's practical, or where the real value lies. We bridge that gap.
We've been building with AI tools since ChatGPT launched in 2022 — not just experimenting, but shipping real production systems. We use AI every day to build web applications, automate workflows, and solve problems that used to take weeks in hours.
We don't just advise on AI. We build with it. Every day. That hands-on experience is what we bring to your business.
The Difference
What Most AI Consultants Do:
- Sell strategy decks and frameworks
- Talk about AI in abstract terms
- Recommend expensive enterprise platforms
- Leave you with a report and no results
- Haven't built anything themselves
What We Do:
- Build working systems alongside you
- Show you what AI can do with your actual work
- Start with quick wins that prove value fast
- Leave you with running systems and skills
- Use AI to build every single day
Who I Work With
Business Leaders
You know AI matters but need guidance on where it creates real value in your operations. We help you find the high-impact opportunities and implement them.
Agencies & Professional Services
Content, search, data processing, client reporting — AI can transform the work your team does daily. We've built these systems for real agencies.
CTOs & Technical Directors
Your legacy systems are a ticking clock, but 6-month consulting engagements are too slow and expensive. We use AI-assisted development and 15+ years of AWS architectural expertise to rescue EOL applications (like PHP/.NET) and modernise them into secure, scalable cloud environments in a fraction of the traditional time.
Technical Teams
Your developers can double or triple their productivity with AI-assisted coding. We can show them how — we've built entire production applications this way.

Proof, Not Promises
Built: TrinityP3 Agency Register & AI Search
A complete two-sided platform for one of Australia's leading marketing management consultancies. Agencies manage their profiles via the Register, clients discover agencies via AI-powered Search. The entire system was built with Claude Code. Not a demo — a production platform used every day.

Secure AWS Modernisation for a National Broadcaster
The Problem: A critical public-facing infrastructure database was trapped on legacy, end-of-life technology (PHP 5.6) running on a highly vulnerable single point of failure (one EC2 instance). The traditional timeline to untangle, refactor, and migrate this system safely was estimated at 3 to 4 months.
The YMA Solution: Using AI-assisted development workflows, we executed a rapid “20-Day Legacy Rescue Sprint.” We took a raw dump of the legacy system and entirely refactored the codebase to meet modern enterprise standards.
The Result: Upgraded the infrastructure to a Highly Available (HA), Multi-AZ AWS architecture with stateless session storage, RDS, and a complete GitLab CI/CD pipeline. Zero compromise on enterprise security, delivered in under a month.
