Sam Ochoa · Independent AI researcher
I test AI tools and agent setups with real small businesses.
I write up what I find, including what works, what breaks, and what still needs testing.
What I’m testing and writing about
Agent Lead Engine
I run Agent Lead Engine, where we build Queva OS, an AI assistant for real estate teams.

Hear from people I've worked with across different fields.

“I was as skeptical as could be. I really didn't trust AI, and I just didn't think it was going to work. He finally convinced me to give it a try, and I'm super happy that I did. He's helped me create workflows that save me five minutes here, 10 minutes here, whether it's organization, reminders, prep work with e-signs or other things with PDFs. He's very patient and he really loves teaching. If you're looking for someone who is going to teach you AI and really go into detail, he's your guy.”

Co-Founder, Curio Studio
“Working with Sam fundamentally changed how I approach AI in my business. He didn't just hand me tools, he built systems I actually understood and could implement immediately.”
“If you're a business owner serious about building with AI, Sam is the person you want in your corner.”

“I'm not very up to date with technology, I just like to do the physical work. He sat down with me, explained CRMs and how they could actually help me, and showed me ways to use AI to handle tasks in the background. He breaks it down in a way that just makes sense.”

“Sam modernized our IT department a decade ago, and the work still keeps our office running at peak efficiency. He has now embraced AI, and once again our office is the beneficiary of his expertise.”

“Sam's approach made it stick because he didn't just set it up and leave. He made sure I understood the system well enough to run it myself, adapt it, and build on it. For a small nonprofit doing big community work, that changes everything.”
A little about me
I’m self-taught and curious. I helped a law office modernize its IT about a decade ago, and I’ve also worked with people in insurance, nonprofits, and construction.
