# Nick Kuh, AI consultant and fractional CTO for small businesses > Nick Kuh is a UK-based AI consultant, fractional CTO and lead product engineer. He helps founders build their own team of autonomous AI agents on Claude (using Claude Cowork and Claude Code), and helps vibe-coded startups scale the tech behind a growing business. Nick builds these AI teams for clients and, crucially, shows founders how to build and own them themselves, so the wins and the skills stay in-house. No black box, no per-seat subscription. ## What it is - Hands-on AI consultancy that gives a business its own team of autonomous AI agents, each doing a real job. - Fractional CTO / CPO leadership for founder-led teams that need senior technical and product direction without a full-time hire. - Built on Claude (Claude Cowork and Claude Code), not a black box: clients learn to build, run and extend the agents themselves, and own what gets built. - The payoff is concrete: win more business, make more money, and get free time back from admin. ## Who it's for - Founders and leaders of small and scaling businesses (roughly 10 to 50 people) who want AI doing real work, not just answering chat prompts. - Startups that built an MVP on Lovable or another no-code tool, found traction, and now need to scale the tech and move off no-code. - People who want to own the capability long term rather than rent a done-for-you automation service. ## The moat: why Nick - 20+ years shipping real products, for the likes of the BBC, Butternut Box, Surfers Against Sewage and Sworkit (40 million users). - Has led VC-funded startups (including Ember) and run and grown product agencies. - Real engineering judgement is the difference between AI that dazzles in a demo and AI you can trust: no spaghetti-code AI slop, no accidentally deleted databases. ## Flagship services - Build your own AI team: a bespoke team of autonomous AI agents on Claude, built with you and left in your hands to run and extend. You own it end to end. - Scout: a bespoke autonomous outreach agent that finds the right prospects, reaches out in your voice and lines up warm conversations around the clock. Especially powerful for high-ticket sales. - Scale your vibe-coded business: for founders who built an MVP on no-code (e.g. Lovable) and found traction. Scale the tech stack, automate operations with AI, move off no-code where it makes sense, with fractional CTO support. ## How it differs - Empowerment-first: you keep the agents, the skills and the understanding, with no per-seat subscription. - Claude-native: built on Claude Cowork and Claude Code, the same tools Nick uses daily. - Grounded in 20+ years of real product delivery, not theory. ## About Nick - AI consultant, fractional CTO / CPO and lead product engineer. - The last couple of years all-in on AI, including getting a company's non-technical leadership team using it every day to automate real work. - Based in Brighton & Hove; serves the UK, including London, and works remotely with clients anywhere. ## Key pages - Home: https://nickkuh.com/ - AI consultant & fractional CTO: https://nickkuh.com/ai-consultant - Blog: https://nickkuh.com/blog - Book a 20-min intro chat: https://nickkuh.com/intro - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickkuh
