Why Subscribe to The AI Plumber?

Gain full access to governance-first AI architecture — real deployments in regulated enterprise (banking, insurance, government, transport), the frameworks behind them, and the hard lessons from building AI systems that must survive auditors, boards, and production incidents.

I build AI infrastructure for regulated enterprise, not demos. Author of “The AI Plumber” (2025) — a governance-first framework for deploying agentic AI in sectors where compliance isn’t optional.

After 20 years building systems across banking (Riyad Bank, SAMA-regulated), insurance (Najm), public transport (Revenue leak detection, GDRP and governance, 129% projected ROI), and government infrastructure (Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya, €10M+ contract, 180+ systems) — I’ve learned that production AI isn’t about the model. It’s about the plumbing.

Currently: Founder and Head Data & AI at DevGap (15+ FTE across +4 countries). CodeNinja partner for enterprise AI delivery.

Here, I share the architecture decisions, the compliance frameworks, and the operational reality of shipping AI in environments where failure has consequences — EU AI Act, SAMA, GDPR.

Previously: 3x MRR at Kazidomi, 168% revenue at Gimber. Employee #3 at Kapaza (acquired by Schibsted, ~€20M). Author of “Micro Multinationals” (2011).

“Governance-first is not a constraint on velocity. It is the only architecture that survives a regulator, a board, and a production incident simultaneously.”
