About Henry
I’ve spent more than 30 years in tech. I’ve built over 100 websites since the 1990s, including one for The Bank of Elk River in 1996.
Today I teach everyday people and small business owners how to put AI to work. You don’t have to be a tech person. You just need someone to show you the way.
Common questions
An AI agent is a computer helper you give a job to, in plain English, the way you would ask a person. A chat tool answers a question and stops. An agent can take a task and carry it through, like sorting a pile of newsletters, drafting a post, or looking up facts. It still needs you to tell it what you want and to check its work.
Most people start with my free AI for Humans training. It's short lessons and everyday examples, at your own pace. If you'd like to talk it over, book a free 30-minute call with me, by phone or Zoom, and pick the date and time that suits you.
I teach from what I use myself. I run my own business with a small team of AI helpers. Gen, my chief of staff, routes the work, and the others handle posts, research, video, email and my websites. They draft. I approve. Nothing goes out without my OK.
I believe the best way to learn this is to do it yourself, with someone a few steps ahead showing you the way. I don't take over your accounts or log in for you. I teach you, and you stay in charge.
You can start for nothing. The AI for Humans beginner community on Skool is free, and so is a 30-minute call with me. Paid training is there when you're ready to build AI agents of your own, and there's no pressure to get there fast.
For a real-world example, you can begin your own Grok Bot team like I run, beginning at $30 a month. I'd still rather you start small and learn what you actually need before you pay for anything.
No. You don't have to be a tech person. I've spent more than 30 years in tech, and I still had to sit down and learn AI one step at a time like everyone else. What helps most is a clear idea of the help you want and someone to show you the first few steps.
I'll give you an honest answer. It depends on the tool and how you use it. Online AI tools have their own privacy settings and rules, and it's worth reading them before you share anything personal or anything about your customers. A good habit is to leave out account numbers, passwords and private details unless you know where that information goes.
Some local businesses want their AI to stay inside their own four walls. For them, I help folks learn about Iron Stack AI, a private AI system that runs in your own office. Iron Stack is my partner company, and you can read about it on the Iron Stack page.
Not at all. I'm in my mid 70s, and I'm learning AI out loud right now. Almost everyone using these tools in a serious way started recently. I believe the starting line is closer than it looks.
Pick one small job you'd like help with, like answering common emails or writing a weekly post. Then join the free AI for Humans training and work through the first lessons. If you get stuck or want to talk about your business, book a free call with me from the Contact page.
