About
I'm Marco. I've spent the last decade building AI products and the growth systems around them. At Disperse, I helped scale a computer vision business that cut reporting and invoicing admin by 90%, raised $35M, and exited to OpenSpace. At SlideSpeak, I helped grow an AI presentation product to more than 1M users, with SEO and AI search as core acquisition channels.
That gave me a clear view of what most teams are now running into: AI search is not a content side quest. It is a distribution channel. Winning it takes content, technical execution, attribution, and commercial judgment working as one system.
Schmitdy is the marketing engineering team I wish existed when I was responsible for growth and watching demand move from Google into ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and AI Overviews. Fixed-price sprints. Agents that stay with you. Measured in revenue, not rankings.
I don't sell theory here. I run my own business on the same systems I build for clients: research, content, monitoring, outreach, and pipeline operations. When I tell you what works, it comes from execution. I have the receipts.
