AI Strategy & Training

Raoul Grouls

About Me

My name is Raoul Grouls (1977), welcome to pttrn. The name is deliberately incomplete—pattern recognition without its vowels. It's a reminder that algorithms find patterns, but humans give them meaning.

Since 2012, I've been building and deploying AI systems across industries, taking projects from "we want something with AI" all the way to production. That hands-on experience taught me what actually works when AI meets reality.

Today, I focus on two things:

  • Helping organizations align AI strategy with execution
  • Training professionals and educators to work effectively with AI

I help companies choose the right approaches for their problems, ensure their AI investments match their strategic goals, and build the internal capability to deploy successfully.

Whether you're a leadership team navigating AI decisions, professionals building new skills, or educators preparing the next generation—I bring both strategic insight and implementation expertise to move from ambition to impact.

What I Do

Right now, I'm engaged in projects that span strategic deployment to fundamental research:
