SIGNAL FROM …

Twenty-five years. Thirty-two ventures. Ten years inside other people's companies, the rest on my own. I am after the same thing every time: what a business looks like once the noise is gone and the owner can see clearly again.

I work from a high plain in Wyoming. The work travels further than I do.

Green Screen Procedures · An AI Governance Company

We give a business's back office to machines, then keep the machines on a short leash. Nothing moves money and nothing reaches the world without a human click. A second system watches the first.

┌ promise ─
Own your business.Work in clarity.Let AI handle the noise.

Named for the green terminals that ran the first computerised businesses. The future sometimes arrives wearing an old colour.
