Studio notes
Added new JQ AI SYSTEMS public system pages for Phone Webcam Bridge and Snapline privacy, extending the systems directory with richer product detail, privacy-first positioning, supporting imagery, a product film embed, homepage and systems navigation updates, sitemap coverage, and llms.txt entries so product proof can sit beside the consulting and automation content.
Finished a Phone Webcam Bridge promo-video package for the Android-to-Windows webcam tool: a 48-second storyboard, seven animated product scenes, English narration structure, caption-safe layouts, seek-safe dashboard demo clips, voice and sound-effect assets, contact-sheet snapshots, a poster, and master plus web MP4 exports.

Twelve years building brand identities. 1,200+ brands across 40+ countries. Then AI changed everything. I didn't switch careers. I added a second layer: building model-flexible automation systems that let creative businesses operate at a scale they couldn't reach before.
The result: systems that think in brand voice, understand design context, and run without babysitting.

What clients
What clients
actually say.
Real humans running real businesses on builds that ship. No invented quotes.
Before the build, my Monday morning was a four-hour scramble across every client’s brand, voice, and feed. After João shipped the system, the same briefing lands in thirty minutes and I still recognize my own voice in every draft. I have taken on more clients since, without hiring anyone to cover the repetitive work.
More client testimonials coming as new builds ship.

What is JQ AI SYSTEMS?
JQ AI SYSTEMS is an AI automation consultancy founded by João Queirós, a branding specialist with 12+ years of experience and 10 Anthropic certifications. Based in Porto, Portugal, the studio designs and builds model-flexible AI systems: automation pipelines, multi-agent architectures, prompt engineering frameworks, and hands-on setup using the right stack for each workflow, including the OpenAI stack (Codex and ChatGPT/GPT models), Claude, Gemini, and open-source LLMs when appropriate.
What does an AI automation consultant actually do?
An AI automation consultant maps the repetitive, high-volume parts of your business and replaces them with custom AI systems. At JQ AI SYSTEMS: Python pipelines, Codex-assisted builds, multi-agent workflows, scheduled reporting systems, content pipelines, and practical AI setup for teams. Strategy, build, deploy, and handover, all handled end to end.
How much does a custom AI automation system cost?
Custom builds follow two ladders. Quick Builds remove one focused problem: a Sprint (days to one week) starts from $1,035 (€900); a Single-Purpose System (one to two weeks, one full workflow) starts from $2,760 (€2,400). System Builds run a whole operational area: a Mid-Scope System (three to five weeks, scheduled automation or content pipeline with memory) starts from $6,325 (€5,500); a Multi-Agent Platform in the Camille pattern (four to eight weeks, multiple AI agents with memory and orchestration) starts from $13,800 (€12,000); Enterprise Platforms with custom infrastructure and ongoing delivery start from $28,750 (€25,000). Every project begins with a free 30-minute consultation where the highest-impact automation is scoped and quoted precisely before any commitment.
How long does it take to build a custom AI automation?
A focused single-purpose automation (like a reporting tool or scheduled briefing) typically ships in one to two weeks. Full multi-agent systems with memory and client deliverables take four to eight weeks depending on integrations.
What is the difference between Zapier and a custom AI automation system?
Zapier connects apps with simple triggers. A custom LLM-powered system reasons about your data, writes in your brand voice, remembers context across runs, and handles complex multi-step logic that no-code tools cannot. JQ AI SYSTEMS builds the layer above Zapier, not a replacement.
Do I need to be in Porto to work with you?
No. JQ AI SYSTEMS is based in Porto, Portugal, but all work happens remotely. Current clients are in Portugal, France, and the UK. Communication in English, Portuguese, or French.
Do you work with clients in the United States?
Yes. JQ AI SYSTEMS works entirely remotely and takes on companies and startups across the United States. I keep working hours that overlap both US Eastern and Pacific time, run projects asynchronously around your schedule, and hand everything over with full documentation, so being based in Porto, Portugal is never a constraint on US work.
Do I need technical knowledge to work with you?
No. You describe the problem in plain language. JQ AI SYSTEMS handles strategy, design, build, and deployment end to end. You receive a working system plus documentation on how it runs.
Which AI stack do you use for business automation?
The stack depends on the workflow. The OpenAI stack, including Codex and ChatGPT/GPT models, is strong for building, coding, agentic work, and conversational workflows; Claude is excellent for long-context reasoning and brand-sensitive output; Gemini and open-source LLMs can fit other constraints. JQ AI SYSTEMS chooses the model and tooling around the job, not the other way around.
Do I own the code after the project ends?
Yes. You own every line of code, every prompt, every config file. Every build ships with full source and documentation, so you are never locked in for maintenance.
