I specialize in
“Use what you already know to build what comes next with Vertical AI.”
Background & Highlights
I help founders, business owners and industry experts use what they already know to build what comes next with Vertical AI. I’m Clive Mayhew, co-founder and CEO of GOLF.AI, former Managing Director of Netscape Australasia, and author of the forthcoming Vertical AI: Changing the Game. My work brings a global perspective to industry-specific AI, grounded in the experience of building a Vertical AI business. My book provides a 12-chapter playbook for turning industry knowledge into practical AI opportunities. I focus on real business workflows, intelligent agents, data ecosystems and the Forward-Deployed Engineer (FDE) approach: working close to the people and problems that matter. In a one-to-one consulting session, we can: • Identify where your industry experience gives you an AI advantage • Choose a valuable workflow and prioritise what to build first • Shape a Vertical AI product, service or implementation roadmap • Connect AI strategy to customer needs, operations and go-to-market • Work through the practical questions behind your next step This is for founders, SME owners, operators and experienced professionals who want to put their knowledge to work in the AI era. Bring a business, an industry challenge or an early idea. We’ll focus on a clear next step. My forthcoming book, Vertical AI: Changing the Game, brings these ideas together. Book a conversation to explore how they apply to your business.
