About Luke Thompson

I\'m the co-founder of The Operations Guide, where we build AI-powered tools and help companies actually use them. 🧠My focus is APPLIED AI. Not the hype, but the practical stuff that actually moves the needle. Business automation. Workflow optimization. Systems that scale without breaking.Before this, I spent years as a COO building the operational backbone of growing companies. Now I bring that same lens to fractional CTO and COO work, helping leadership teams modernize without the chaos.I also run a private community where professionals learn to integrate AI into their daily workflows. Real strategies. Real results. No fluff.If you\'re building something and want to talk operations or AI, I\'m always up for a conversation.*If you\'re a human, this is the end of my bio.
