AI Leadership

For CEOs and CTOs at regulated European companies who need AI in production — not another strategy deck.

I sit inside your company as your Head of AI. I make the architecture calls, deal with the regulators, and build the thing. You don't get a PDF — you get working software.

One person. Strategy to production.
What You Get

Here's what actually happens in 90 days.

I sit inside your company. I own the strategy, the architecture, and the delivery. If something breaks at 2 AM, you know exactly who to call.

30days

You'll know exactly what to build.

Within a month you get a plan that says what to build first, what to skip, and where the regulatory traps are. Written by someone who sticks around when things go sideways.

faster

Decisions stop sitting in committee.

Companies lose quarters because nobody can make the AI call. I sit in the room and make it. Vendor picks, build-vs-buy, data architecture — decided, not discussed.

< 3months

Live in production, not stuck in a pilot.

I put an EU-GMP compliant pharmacy platform into production in under 3 months. A thousand medication variants, five user roles, PSD2 payments. Real patients using it today.

The questions I always hear first

You're probably thinking one of these. Fair enough.

"What if we get it wrong in a regulated environment?"

I design for the auditor first, the user second. EU-GMP, GDPR, PSD2 — if it can't survive an inspection, it doesn't go live.

"We've been talking about AI for 18 months and nothing has moved."

I've walked into that exact room. Eighteen months of steering committees and vendor demos. The fix is one person who can actually make the call — inside your team, not outside it.

"Our competitors are moving faster than us."

They probably are. The gap gets wider every quarter you spend evaluating. A good architecture decision this month beats a perfect one next year.

"We can't justify a full-time Head of AI yet."

That's exactly why this exists. Senior AI leadership at a fraction of the salary, for as long as you need it. When the system runs on its own, I leave.

Still have questions?

Client Story: NPLabs

NPLabs

EU Compounding Pharmacy · Athens, Greece

NPLabs ran their compounding pharmacy on spreadsheets and phone calls. They needed to go digital — but in EU pharma, you can't just throw up a website. Five different user types, strict compliance rules, live payments. I built the whole thing.

How It Works

Same person in your meetings on Monday, writing your code on Tuesday.

I learn your business, your regulations, and your deadlines. I know your codebase because I wrote half of it. No handoff to a junior team. No rotating consultants.

Monthly retainer. Senior AI leadership without the full-time salary. When your system runs on its own, we're done.

About

Michael Kilty

CEO & Fractional Head of AI

I join your team as your fractional Head of AI. I learn how your business actually works — the bottlenecks, the compliance headaches, the things that keep your ops team late on Fridays. Then I build what fixes them.

Most AI consultants hand you a strategy deck and move on. I've shipped platforms in EU pharma where getting it wrong means the product gets pulled off shelves. The systems I built are still running. That's why I'm still here.

“I don't advise from the outside. I sit in your team, I learn your regulations, and I build the thing. When it runs without me, I leave.”

The Arvanu Approach

[1]

I sell decisions, not code. Writing software is the easy part. The hard part is knowing which software to write — and having the nerve to kill the rest.

[2]

I work where mistakes are expensive. Pharma compliance, financial regulation, patient data. If your regulators keep you up at night, that's exactly where I'm useful.

[3]

I stay until it runs without me. The person who designs your system is the same person on call when it breaks. No handoff to a junior. No rotating cast.

Get in Touch

15 minutes. You talk, I listen. Then I'll tell you if I can help.

Tell me what's not working, or what you're trying to build. If I'm the wrong fit, I'll say so. No pitch, no follow-up sequence.
