Who I am

Keep the expert — let AI do the rest.

Tyler Sztuka is the founder of SZD Labs, where he helps non-technical SMB and mid-market companies wield AI as real leverage, without forcing anyone to become an engineer. His focus is the outcome-first operator: the founder, ops lead, or domain specialist looking to expand the reach of their capabilities with AI but unsure where to start. His core conviction: a domain expert's judgment is what turns AI output from slop into signal — so keep them the expert and let AI do the rest.

Tyler is also focused on ecosystem development, understanding the economic, cultural, and organizational impact this technology is having on his local Atlanta ecosystem, and on one simple question: what does ROI look like for AI, and how can companies get there? Separately, as Atlanta's volunteer Claude Community Ambassador, he hosts free, open-to-all Claude Community events, from hands-on workshops to a citywide conversation on what AI is doing to Atlanta's people and communities.
