Yeah, I solve problems like the one that brought you here.
SaaS and service businesses across the US and Europe bring me in when operations, product execution, or launch preparation have outgrown the structure they have.
I work across:
1) building operating systems for teams that have grown past informal coordination;
2) scoping and launching MVPs with the financial and GTM logic behind them;
3) designing manual and AI assisted workflows that reduce manual load in daily operations.
Send it over. I’ll make it easier to act on.
🔹 WHEN CLIENTS BRING ME IN
⚙️ [COO-Level Execution Systems]
For you if:
• Your team has the tools, but execution still depends on memory.
• Ownership, handoffs, approvals, follow-ups, or team response times are hard to control.
• You need a clearer operating rhythm across projects, clients, vendors, and internal delivery.
What I do:
Build the operating layer around ownership, workflows, decision points, metrics, SOPs, and the high-level management views leadership needs. I use PMI project control and Lean process mapping as the structural backbone.
Track record:
Operational system for US property management (900+ units, 50+ person team), maintenance workflow logic, Google Workspace restructuring, Notion operating system for a consulting firm, a 15-person agency workspace overhaul, BPMN workflow mapping, ClickUp setups, and Asana delivery control for CGI campaigns for Sony and Hyundai.
🤖 [AI Operating Playbooks]
For you if:
• Your team is starting to use Gemini, ChatGPT, or Claude inside daily operations, but the usage is chaotic.
• People use AI unevenly, copy outputs too quickly without verification, or avoid the tools completely.
• You need AI to systematically support team execution, internal documentation, and knowledge access.
What I do:
Turn AI into a functional operating layer, crafting custom use cases, structured prompt engineering, Gems, verified source material bases, review protocols, and playbooks tied directly to your workflows.
Track record:
Gemini operating logic for a US property management company, AI-assisted maintenance communication systems, internal AI use case mapping, process documentation automation, LLM workflow design, AI research frameworks, and operating playbooks for teams built on Google Workspace, Notion, and major CRMs.
🚀 [Product, GTM & Unit Economics]
For you if:
• Your MVP scope, GTM path, pricing model, or initial customer segment is unclear.
• You need a strict financial model before committing capital to a specific revenue path.
• Your product roadmap lacks sharp, data-driven business logic.
• Market dynamics, cost structures, conversion, retention, or support load are heavily affecting your decisions.
What I do:
I connect product decisions directly to economics: MVP scope definition, roadmap logic, GTM architecture, pricing models, unit economics, scenario tools, and the immediate execution plan the team can act on.
Track record:
B2B SaaS pricing models, 36-month SaaS financial forecasting, revenue scenario planning tools, hospitality SaaS MVP-to-GTM decision packs, hotel guest app market sizing, SaaS pricing and competitive intelligence memos, AI healthcare market analysis, startup burn rate dashboards, and multi-channel revenue mapping for creative and service enterprises.
⭐ CLIENT FEEDBACK
Upwork feedback on my completed jobs points to clear communication, reliability, detail, quality, accountability, and solution oriented work.
That feedback comes from Excel pricing work, startup financial modeling, AI workflow research, Notion systems, and project management tool setup.
📌 HOW I WORK
1. Current material
You send the model, market notes, workspace, spreadsheet, project board, documents, or business question you already have.
2. First move
I find the first move from what you send.
3. Working structure
I bring the model, market analysis, workspace, tracker, or operating system into a form the founder can use with the team.
4. Handover
You get the structure, logic, notes, and walkthroughs needed to keep using it after the project.

Send over what you have now. I’ll show you the first move.

You know your business. I know how to make AI work for it.
I am an AI Consultant and Automation Enabler bridging the gap between complex technology and practical business needs. My focus is on HR departments and SMBs that want to stop talking about AI and start seeing actual ROI from it.
I am an "AI Enabler." I don't just build automations and hand them over. I make sure your team actually understands them, adopts them, and uses them to eliminate bottlenecks.
WHAT I DO:
Custom AI Agents & Automation: I build workflows integrated with OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini that can reduce your manual workload by 90% and cut your costs at the same time.
HR Technology & Process Optimization: I bring 10+ years of enterprise experience in HR tech, talent acquisition, and digital transformation, including managing global TA platforms across 40+ countries.
AI Training & Workshops: I make AI tangible for non-technical teams. From C-suite strategy down to everyday prompt engineering, I train teams on how to actually use AI without the overwhelming jargon.
End-to-End Execution: I don't just consult - I build. I am the founder of Lube AI and recently built and launched Certyme, a fully automated, multi-model AI SaaS platform from scratch.
MY APPROACH:
"You talk business, I do the job." I skip the buzzword bingo and focus on what matters: saving you time, cutting costs, and making your daily operations smoother. Whether you need a high-level AI strategy, a custom n8n workflow, or hands-on team training, I can deliver it.
Native in German, fluent in English (Cambridge Business English Certificate), and fully equipped to handle global, cross-timezone projects.
Let’s figure out where AI can make the biggest impact in your business today.

Repetitive workflows costing your team hundreds of hours monthly? I automate them.
✅ 10+ years Systems Engineer & Automation Specialist |
✅ Saved clients over €1,000,000 and 10,000s of hours through workflow automation
✅ Zero-Touch Deployment (Mosyle/Intune) | n8n, Make, Python, AI integrations
✅ Microsoft Certified: MCSE, Azure, M365
✅ 100% job success rate
Hey!👋 I'm Mikail.
I build systems that eliminate manual work and infrastructure that scales.
What Makes Me Different:
I don't overwhelm you with tech jargon. My approach is outcome-focused: I listen to your problem first, understand what success looks like, then build the simplest, most reliable solution to get you there. Whether that's deploying device management systems, migrating cloud infrastructure, building an n8n workflow, or writing a Python script—I build solutions that just work.
Clients hire me for two main reasons: Either their infrastructure needs expert configuration and management, or their teams are drowning in repetitive manual work. Sometimes both. That's where I come in.
✅ Zero-Touch Device Deployment: Apple Fleet Management
I implemented automated device enrollment and configuration for a German SaaS company managing 43 Mac devices.
Before: 8 hours per employee—unpacking hardware, installing software, configuring security settings, manual onboarding.
After: 2 minutes to order the device, everything else happens automatically through standardized video training and zero touch deployment.
The Challenge:
The company grew fast, hiring up to 6 people on the same day. One IT admin couldn't handle manual setups for multiple employees simultaneously.
The Results:
Since implementation, the automated solution has saved the company over €30,000 and 600 hours of manual labor. The system made scaling possible and continues to deliver ROI with every new hire.
✅ Google Workspace → Microsoft 365 Migration
I migrated a 90-employee company from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365. Eliminated 25,200€/year in desktop license costs while maintaining the same pricing through Software Assurance. Everyone got current versions instead of outdated standalone licenses.
The Results: 2 weeks preparation, migration executed over one weekend, 100+ mailboxes and rules migrated with zero downtime or business interruption. The company has saved over €252,000 in licensing costs since the migration 10 years ago.
✅ 600 Hours/Month Saved: License Renewal Automation
I built an end-to-end n8n automation for a SaaS company that eliminated 5 hours/week per employee across 30 team members. Automated license creation, status tracking, and data consolidation.
The Results: Since implementation 18 months ago, the system has saved over €432,000 and 10,800 hours of manual labor. ROI achieved in less than 1 month. Error rate reduced to near 0%. The automation continues to save 24,000€ monthly.
✅ 85 Hours/Month Saved: Support Ticket Auto-Enrichment
I automated BI tool data pulls that enriched helpdesk tickets in real-time with customer and instance information. Eliminated 15 minutes of manual lookup per ticket across ~340 monthly tickets.
The Results: Since implementation 18 months ago, the system has saved over €61,200 and 1,530 hours. Improved customer experience and reduced tool-switching for support agents. The automation continues to save 3,400€ monthly.
Tools & Platforms I Work With:
⚙️ Automation & AI:
n8n, Make, Zapier, OpenAI (ChatGPT API), Claude API (Vision), Python scripting, Selenium, Playwright
💼 Business Systems:
CRM (Pipedrive, HubSpot), Project Management (Jira, Notion, ClickUp), Support (Zendesk, Metabase), Airtable, Google Sheets

❝ It's easy: I would work with Mikail any time anywhere. He's a problem solver with a broad range of knowledge in too many areas to name them all (e.g. AI driven automation pipelines, office system configuration and fleet management, Azure configuration....). If he might not know the subject now, he will in a few days and deliver the expected results and more. Was a joy to work with him. ❞
— Peter Schrammel, CTO

🚀 Unlock faster, smarter sales growth with AI-powered workflows - without hiring in-house tech experts, managing complex tools yourself, or getting stuck in rigid, one-size-fits-all systems.
I help remote B2B service firms and agencies simplify their sales and marketing processes with lean, AI-powered workflow automation that:
✅ Frees your team from repetitive tasks
✅ Improves lead quality and conversion rates
✅ Shortens sales cycles and speeds up revenue
✅ Delivers measurable ROI - within weeks, not months
Many teams I work with have tried adding tools or hiring freelancers before. But too often, the results don’t stick:
❌ Overbuilt systems and a ton of code no one adopts
❌ Flashy AI hacks that create more work
❌ “Big tech” solutions that don’t fit your team’s reality
❌ Projects that drag on endlessly without clear ROI in a human's lifetime
If you have experienced this, then you're in the right place. 🙌
I partner closely with growth-minded leaders to design and deploy automation that fits your processes, your people, and your goals. No bloated tech stacks. No overengineering. Just smarter, simpler workflows that scale.
Here’s how I can support you:
📌 Sales & marketing workflow automation (lead capture, qualification, follow-up)
📌 CRM optimization & integration (HubSpot, Airtable, custom APIs)
📌 AI-powered outreach systems (personalized messaging & proposal generation)
📌 Building smart AI workflows with N8N, Make.com, and LLMs
📌 Designing and deploying AI Agent systems with Relevance AI
📌 Revenue operations process design (RevOps)
I bring a rare mix of:
🚀 Business strategy (what matters for growth)
⚙️ Technical execution (making systems actually work)
👥 Team adoption (so the change sticks)
This isn’t “tech for tech’s sake.” It’s about enabling your team to move faster, win more deals, and focus on high-value work.
How does working with me look like?
▶️ We analyze where you are at.
➡️ We collaborate to set realistic goals.
⤴️ I build a little (or work with a team to build).
🔁 We talk about findings and restart.
By iteratively refining solutions, we effectively turn potential into progress and investments into ROI.
📩 Ready to streamline your sales processes and unlock smarter revenue growth?
Send me a message with your challenges, and I’ll help you map out a path to measurable results. 🙌
