From Energy Tech to AI:
A Builder's Journey

The Journey

As a co-founder and CTO of a leading SaaS company in the UK energy sector, I've experienced firsthand the transformative power of technology. After successfully building and selling our company, I gained invaluable insights into creating products that truly matter. But throughout this journey, I noticed a persistent challenge that kept surfacing.

The Challenge

While AI models are becoming increasingly powerful, teams struggle with fragmented tooling, inconsistent workflows, and the complexity of managing multiple AI providers. Engineers and product teams waste countless hours switching between different interfaces, managing API keys, and reinventing collaboration patterns. I realised that the missing piece wasn't another AI model—it was a unified platform that could bring order to this chaos.

The Vision

This is why I'm building Nech. As an engineer, entrepreneur, and AI enthusiast, I envision a future where teams can harness the full potential of AI without the current operational overhead. Nech isn't just another tool—it's a carefully crafted platform that brings together the best AI models in one place, with collaboration and efficiency at its core.

Open Source First

I believe that the future of AI tooling should be built in the open, with transparency and community at its heart. That's why Nech is open source. We're creating a platform that not only solves today's challenges but evolves with the community's needs, fostering innovation and collaboration in the rapidly advancing world of AI.
