— it doesn't replace it.
I'm Andrew Maryasov. I help owners and teams think about AI strategically: where it gives leverage and where it's just noise. No hype, on the side of common sense. Behind me — 1,500+ CRM and automation projects (Auspex) and 28 AI projects.
Practitioner, not a theorist.
Andrew Maryasov. AI consultant and founder of Auspex and Grow2.ai. I don't rehash other people's AI articles — I build agents in production and run my own fleet of AI systems every day. So I advise from the position of someone who does the work, not someone who read about it.
