Nicolai Thomson
I’ve run the company. I’ve been the CTO.
I’ve carried the sales number.
That’s why the systems I build get used: I know what Monday morning feels like from your chair.
My recent work includes second brains and AI chief-of-staff systems, UKOPRA’s operating platform and financial AI, on top of twenty years as a founder, seller and operator.
I build one thing well: a system that knows what you know, your notes, your decisions and your conversations, and brings the right piece back when you need it.
How we work togetherSix months to change how you operate

Make it part of the business
Involve the right colleagues, then brief product and engineering on the context, decisions and agreed next steps.

A conversation with Nicolai
What would a better working environment look like?
Tell me a little about your situation in the short brief below. It takes about three minutes and only I read it. If it looks like a fit, you’ll get a link to book a free half-hour with me. If it doesn’t, I’ll say so plainly and point you somewhere more useful.
30 minutes with Nicolai
A half-hour,
in confidence.
Where most conversations begin.
Share your brief first so I have the context before we speak. You’ll then be able to choose a time on Cal.com. A free half-hour. No card details, no obligation.
Already spoken with me?Book a time directly
Before you decide
A little clarity.
Should I do the Diagnostic first?
I’d recommend it. You’ll know what the brief looks like on your own information before you commit to six months, and the full Diagnostic fee comes off this price if you continue within sixty days.
What is an operating environment?
The information, knowledge, systems and routines around your work. We focus on how you see what is happening, retain useful context and move decisions into action.
Will this connect every tool in the business?
We agree a useful, achievable scope and the sources you can access. Complex integrations and organisation-wide engineering delivery are scoped separately.
Can my team participate?
Yes. We agree who needs to be involved and when. Briefing and handover to your product and engineering teams are included.
What does WhatsApp support include?
Questions, troubleshooting and feedback on the agreed work over six months. Working hours and response expectations are agreed before booking.
What could come next
Take the change across your teams.
From your operating environment to plans, applications and change delivered across the organisation.
