I set up your AI assistant with you.

Who is ExFu for?

12 active projects

Many hats. Many responsibilities.

I need to be on top of everything

Inbox: 999+ unread

Holding it all in my head

TODO: make a to-do list

Everything depends on me

3am idea #412

Too many SaaS tools

TODO: Find out how AI can actually help me !!!

I keep copy-pasting between apps

Don't need another app. Just need ___

Signed up for another tool. Used it twice.

Why don't my tools just talk to each other

Sound familiar? I help people like you get set up with AI that actually works.

You've got projects.

You've got ideas.

You've got workflows and systems, but no perfect tool.

Maybe you're using ChatGPT. Maybe you've moved to Claude. But you haven't crossed from "helpful chats" to "something you'd hand real work to."

You need a second brain that understands your workflow and actually does stuff for you.

ExFu isn't an app. I sit down with you and we build your AI assistant together using public AI like Claude.

One afternoon with me, and you've got a second brain that actually works. Plus the understanding to keep sharpening it yourself.

One Afternoon. Done.

You'll have Claude expertly set up as your personal assistant.

What happens

Video call. Shared screen. We build your AI assistant together. I explain what we're doing and why, so you understand the setup, not just use it.

What you leave with

An AI assistant that knows your context, your preferences, how you work, and how to help you get stuff done. And you know how to keep it sharp.

It's like cooking. A trained chef can improvise from anything in the cupboard because they understand the principles. The rest of us need recipes. You're not going to chef school, and you don't need to. You need someone to show you the essential gadgets, the core recipes, and the basic rules of flavour, so you can start improvising on your own.

01

Setting up the kitchen

We give your AI a permanent home, a personal workspace it maintains and you feed into. By the end, it has context. It remembers.

02

Cooking the first meal

We pick a real workflow and build it end to end. You walk away with something working, and the understanding to build the next one yourself.

Example setups from real sessions

Your AI handles project management and task tracking, integrated with your calendar, with daily morning briefings.

Your AI tracks who you've talked to and who you want to talk to. No expensive CRM software. Just you, your contacts, and why that person mattered to you.

Your AI connects your spreadsheets to your existing apps and keeps everything in sync.

This isn't just a tech setup.

I listen. Then I build around how you actually work.

Psychotherapist + technologist

I'm trained in both. I listen, I adapt to you, and I'm patient. Whatever comes up in the process, I'm comfortable working through it with you.

Neurodiversity friendly

Executive function challenges are literally what ExFu is named after. If you have ADHD, or suspect you might, these sessions are designed with you in mind.

Tech

I know what AI can actually do today, not what a keynote speaker says it might do next year.

Startup

I understand the pressure of multiple hats and urgent priorities. I've lived it.

Psychotherapy

I know how to work with people towards their best selves, whatever's getting in the way.

One afternoon, and your day-to-day is covered. I'm here if and when you want help making it even smarter or more complex.

Ready?

Let's set it up.

Book a session, or get in touch if you want to talk it through first.

Got it. I'll be in touch, usually within a day or two.
