Operations & AI consulting · Design & build
I find where technology and automation can help your business, then build it.
Manco Labs is the solo practice of a developer and operations consultant with real full-stack depth. I take ownership of the work from assessment to delivery, without the overhead of an in-house hire, and document everything so you're never locked in.
Three ways to work together.
/ 01 · ServicesOperations & AI Assessment
A 30-day look at how your business actually runs. I map your workflows, identify where technology, automation, and AI can save real time and money, and hand back a prioritized roadmap. The goal is an honest answer about what you actually need, including when AI is not the right fit. Low commitment by design, so you have a clear plan before committing to any build.
- Workflow and operations audit
- Prioritized roadmap of opportunities
- Recommendations covering automation, training, and where AI fits (or does not)
Automation & AI Agent Build
Once the assessment defines the work, this builds and deploys it. AI agents, workflow automation, custom software, integrations, and the web development to finish the result professionally. Payment is milestone-based, so cost tracks with progress, not promises.
- AI agents and workflow automation
- Custom software and integrations
- Web development and front-end polish
Embedded Development & Ongoing Support
Ongoing development without the commitment of a full-time hire. I embed into your team, ship features front to back, maintain and extend what was already built, and give practical guidance on where AI actually fits in your product.
- Feature development, front to back
- Ongoing maintenance and enhancement
- Practical AI guidance
Founding clients.
/ 02 · Selected workminicine?
A Shreveport microcinema that grew into a community stage for local musicians and artists. Run from the heart of founder David Nelson, minicine? never had a rigid schedule, just an open door. The site honors that same spirit.
ABZ Health & Recovery
ABZ Health and Recovery believes every path to sobriety is personal. The site reflects their approach: compassionate, direct, and built to make it as easy as possible for someone to take that first step and ask for help.
SimplyThrive Medical
A weight loss and hormone therapy clinic in Shreveport that runs on relationships, not protocol. Providers call and check in on their patients. The site is built to earn that same trust from the first visit.
Background
/ 03 · AboutThe experience to advise. The depth to build it.
Most consultants hand off a slide deck and leave. Most developers build without questioning whether it's the right approach. I've worked both sides, at real depth. At Cervey, I assessed the full product suite, set the design and technical standards, planned the migration, and then led the implementation, documenting everything so the team could own it.
Before that, at Emergent Enforcement Solutions, I built a CJIS-compliant full-stack application end to end: real backend, cloud, and integration work, not just interfaces. That combination is what I bring to Manco Labs: the judgment to tell you honestly what your business needs, and the ability to actually deliver it.
Led modernization of the product suite and established platform-wide design standards. Evaluated and planned framework migration, implemented a unified, brand-aligned design system, produced thorough documentation, and contributed to AI-integration roadmapping.
Built a full-stack application for processing police lidar-gun video so CJIS-compliant workers could adjudicate violations. Engineered FTP servers to relay video to cloud storage, parsed manufacturer DLLs, integrated a DMV license-plate query API with regex auto-fill, and built the adjudicator interface. Django, PostgreSQL, and AWS, working alongside a junior developer.
