Stop doing work
AI should be doing.
Henok Consulting helps founders and lean teams eliminate the manual workflows killing their momentum — and ship AI-powered products that unlock their next stage of growth.
What most AI consultants get wrong
They drop in a chatbot, declare victory, and leave you maintaining a system nobody really understands.
We take a different approach: we start with your actual workflows, identify the highest-leverage automation opportunities, and build systems your team adopts because they genuinely work better.
- ✓AI embedded in the tools you already use
- ✓Zero copy-paste handoffs between systems
- ✓Measurable outcomes, not impressive demos
Two ways we work with you.
Both are outcome-focused. No retainers for retainers' sake — only work that moves the business forward.
AI Automation & Intelligent Workflows
We map your operations, find where AI delivers the most leverage, and build automations that eliminate your highest-cost manual work — without breaking what already works.
- →Internal AI copilots for ops, sales, and support
- →Automated intake, triage, and smart routing
- →Knowledge bases and RAG-powered chat
- →CRM, back-office, and cross-tool automations
Typical result: 80–95% reduction in manual ops.
Product, App & Website Development
From founder MVPs to internal dashboards and high-converting marketing sites — we design and ship interfaces that feel production-ready from day one.
- →AI-enabled web and mobile apps
- →Founder-focused MVPs and proof-of-concepts
- →Analytics-rich internal tools and dashboards
- →High-converting marketing and product sites
Typical result: launched and validated with real users in weeks.
A clear process. No black boxes.
You'll always know what we're building, why it matters, and what's coming next.

Real problems. Measurable results.
These aren't case studies with vague takeaways. They're before-and-after snapshots of what actually changed.
Response time: days → hours.
Before: Inbound requests were manually sorted, enriched, and routed each morning — a 2-hour daily ritual that still produced errors and delays.
After: An AI-powered intake flow classifies requests, enriches them with CRM data, and routes them automatically. Time-to-first-response dropped by 63%.
One source of truth, finally.
Before: Product and revenue data lived in 5 different tools. Pulling weekly reports took a full afternoon and still required manual reconciliation.
After: A unified dashboard with an AI layer that answers natural-language questions about performance. Reports went from 4 hours to 4 minutes.
Idea to first customers in 5 weeks.
Before: A founder with a validated insight but no technical team, burning time on scope decisions and vendor evaluations.
After: A focused AI-enabled web app, designed and shipped in 5 weeks. First paying customers closed within 30 days of launch.

Founder, Henok Consulting
Built in crypto. Applying it to AI.
I spent years working inside the crypto industry — an environment where operations move fast, margins matter, and there's no tolerance for tools that look good but break under real conditions. That shaped how I think about technology: it either works reliably at scale, or it's a liability.
I started Henok Consulting to apply that same standard to AI. Most businesses are being sold on demos. I help you figure out what actually sticks — where AI cuts real cost, removes a real bottleneck, or gives you a capability you couldn't afford before. Then we build it, cleanly, without the bloat.
When you work with me, you get one person who owns the strategy and the build. No handoffs, no scope surprises, no junior contractors learning on your dime.
"They understood our messy processes quickly, came back with a simple plan, and shipped exactly what we needed. The automations feel invisible — but we notice the time we got back every single week."
— Operations lead, B2B services firm
Is this right for you?
We work best with a specific kind of team. If you fit the left column, we should talk. If the right column sounds more like you, we're probably not the best fit right now.
✓ This is probably for you
- ✓You're a founder or ops leader spending too much time on repetitive, manual work
- ✓You want to go from 'thinking about AI' to 'AI running our ops' in weeks
- ✓You want a product shipped on a real timeline, not a 6-month waterfall plan
- ✓You have a clear owner who can give us access and fast feedback
- ✓You want a partner who explains the work clearly — not buzzword soup
- ✓You care about ROI more than impressive-looking slide decks
✕ Probably not a fit (yet)
- ✕You need 10+ developers on-site for an 18-month enterprise rollout
- ✕You want to automate first and think about strategy later
- ✕You're not ready to share access to your tools and data
- ✕You're optimizing for the lowest hourly rate, not the highest return
- ✕Your org requires months of committee approvals before anything ships
- ✕You want a vendor to hand you a product and disappear
Questions, answered directly.
What does the free AI Audit include?+−
A 30-minute call where we look at your current workflows, tools, and biggest pain points. You'll leave with a clear view of your top 2–3 automation opportunities and an honest assessment of whether we're a fit. No obligation.
How do you price projects?+−
Most work is done on a fixed-scope, fixed-fee basis once we understand the problem — so there are no surprises. For exploratory or ongoing work, we offer structured retainers. We share ballpark ranges early so you can make informed decisions.
How quickly can we actually start seeing results?+−
For automation projects, most clients see measurable time savings within the first 2–4 weeks of build. For new products, we typically have a working demo in your hands within 2 weeks of kicking off design.
Which AI tools and models do you use?+−
We choose models based on your constraints — cost, latency, data sensitivity, and where the model runs. That can mean OpenAI, Anthropic, open-weight models, vector databases, or workflow tools like n8n/Make. We don't push a preferred stack — we choose what fits the problem.
How do you handle data security and privacy?+−
We work within your existing data policies, avoid sending sensitive data to third-party APIs unless necessary, and design for principle-of-least-privilege from the start. Where needed, we can use self-hosted or on-premise solutions.
