bobmichaels.ai, this site and its Executive AI Agent

A custom AI-native website where one agent serves two audiences from a single knowledge source: humans, via the chat on the home page, and other AI systems, via a machine-readable A2A endpoint discoverable at /.well-known/agents.json. Built on a production executive-agent platform. Ask it anything. It is the portfolio piece.

Platforms architected

Production AI systems designed and built end to end. Described at the capability level; specifics on request.

Multi-tenant AI agent platform

Brand-scoped agents grounded in a customer's own content, delivered as both an embeddable chat widget and a machine-discoverable A2A endpoint. Three-tier tenancy with row-level security and per-tenant isolation.

Multi-vendor LLM orchestration

A production pipeline routing across all five major model providers, with head-to-head comparison, evaluation, and monitored cost, so model choice is a tuning decision, not a lock-in.

Agent-orchestration tooling

A control plane for running multiple autonomous build agents in parallel, with a per-project manager agent gating each turn and surfacing significant events, AI building AI systems, supervised.

Enterprise track record

The architecture discipline behind the AI work, 33 years of delivering software for the most demanding buyers.

Dell: Worldwide Trade Compliance Profiling System

Built in the early 2000s and handed off to Dell Americas, which expanded it to salespeople worldwide. It mapped federal denied-party and denied-entity regulations (including freight forwarders), let the sales, credit, and compliance divisions generate the federal reporting they needed, and plugged directly into DOMS, Dell's proprietary system at the time. Orchestrating enterprise processes across divisions like this, for over three decades, is the foundation for the multi-agent AI systems I architect today.
