Lyon & Rhône

I work in and around LyonBuilt for SMBs, not big accountsResults, not slide decks

AI isn't reserved for Lyon's big companies.

A well-equipped SMB automates as much as a large group, for a fraction of the budget. The trick is prioritising the right projects. That's where I come in.

Client feedback

What my clients say

SMB leaders for whom I designed and deployed custom AI agents.

Gauthier built us an autonomous AI agent that handles all our Airbnb guest messages on its own, following our rules. It alerts us whenever a decision or an issue calls for it. We've saved enough time to start planning the expansion of our rental portfolio.

Owner · Short-term rentals

The agent built for us connects to our CRM, goes out to the listing sites on its own to update them, pulls in contacts and passes them to the sales team. I was skeptical at first, I thought it would add checking work on my end. In practice I review closely for the first few days, then I let it run. The real win is the contacts that no longer slip through the cracks. We used to lose quite a few over the weekend.

Independent agent · Real estate

Honestly, at first I didn't see the point for a garage. The agent handles appointment booking, sends out service reminders and sorts quote requests coming in by phone and email. Mostly it took away the calls we used to miss while under a car. You just have to set it up properly around availability, otherwise it offers slots we don't have, but once that's sorted it just runs.

FAQ

You're probably wondering

Do you really travel to Lyon?+

Yes. I'm based in Grenoble, a little over an hour from Lyon, and I travel out for scoping workshops and the key moments. We then move fast remotely.

Do you work with small businesses?+

That's exactly my focus. I work with small and mid-sized businesses in Lyon and the metro area, across every industry.

We're starting from scratch, is that a problem?+

Not at all, that's where most of my clients begin. We start by spotting your repetitive tasks, then automate what saves you the most time first.

How much does it cost?+

It depends on the scope. Some automations take a few days, other projects run over several weeks. The simplest way is to talk it through on a first call, with no commitment.

Is AI useful for a small team?+

Yes. In a market as crowded as Lyon, automating repetitive tasks lets you respond faster than the competition without growing headcount.
