A visible operating system for commercial systems thinking
I build operating systems for how work actually runs — and use AI where it earns its place.
I'm Myles Mellor — an AI-first commercial and operations leader with 25 years of P&L and transformation across financial services, hospitality and consultancy, now building working AI systems daily. This is the record of it: the things I've built, and — more usefully — how I reasoned about them. What I deliberately avoided is often the more telling part.

Systems
The four systems every business runs on
Revenue, operations, decisions, and the data layer underneath — each demonstrated live on my own operation, with the reasoning written up.
Start here — how the pieces run as one operation, and the rules that keep it honest.
How demand becomes work — the public surfaces that earn attention and enquiries.
How work moves — workflow, handoffs, and the quality gates that catch what slips.
How performance gets seen and steered — review, visibility, and deciding what not to do.
The information foundation underneath — memory, knowledge, and what makes AI useful.
Work
Things I’ve shipped
Shipped products — some live, some personal tools — that the thinking produced.
Wood Fired Saunas UK
Live
An editorial directory for a category that didn't have one.
Kitchen schemes from the architect's plan
Delivered · client site live (private link)
Measure the room into numbers first; let the image model add only the finish.
AI training presentation
In production
A presentation about AI that proves the point by running real AI live, in the room.
Household finance dashboard
In daily use · private
A production tool I actually depend on — and a worked example of keeping AI well away from the data that matters.
Running the chain on a real engagement
External engagement · anonymised
The diagnostic pipeline, used end-to-end on a live external piece of work — not a demo.
Linen calculator
Delivered · commercial piece
A fragile spreadsheet turned into a dependable, can't-break tool — built fast, hardened for real use.
Also shipped
Working tools, internal workflows and one side project — each written up on its own page.
Knowledge Inbox OS
In use · local-first
Turn a pile of private documents into something you can ask questions of — with the privacy boundary designed in from the first line.
The Great Howl
Self-initiated concept
A complete artist brand, generated end-to-end with AI — and deliberately held back from looking like it.
Credentials library
Working tool · demo uses synthetic data
Drop credential documents in a folder — get a structured, searchable record of what the firm has actually done.
Meeting prep with a verification layer
Working internal workflow · demo run on public-listed-company data
Company and context in — a one-page, sourced briefing note out, with every claim labelled by how well it is actually supported.
Job-scan — a weekly market radar
Running weekly · autonomous
Once a week, an automated scan reads the director-level job market and tells me honestly how well I'd fit — including when the answer is badly.
Mobile capture — phone to workspace, intact
Running always-on · in daily use
A thought sent from my phone lands once, unmodified, in the workspace inbox — and the system asks me about it at the start of the next session so I never have to remember it exists.
Capability
An evidence-backed map of what I can do
Seventeen AI capability areas, each scored against real workspace evidence — gaps shown, not hidden. See the map →
