AI Consulting for Small Businesses
Practical AI coaching for entrepreneurs: the right tools, set up the right way, so you spend less time on busywork and more time growing your business.
Meet Zach Unger, AI Consultant
Zach leads our AI Consulting for Small Businesses practice, bringing hands-on experience from the frontlines of enterprise AI work into practical, accessible guidance for small business owners.
Zach currently works as an AI Engineer at Neuro Building Systems in Tarrytown, NY, where he leads AI integration strategy and quality assurance for NeuroCore, a commercial building monitoring platform used across 20+ hotel properties in the US and Caribbean. He spends his days researching and applying tools like Claude, GPT, and Model Context Protocol servers, designing AI roadmaps, and translating what's possible into what's actually usable.
That's the same lens he brings to Made Manifest's small business clients: less theory, more "here's what to do on Monday morning."
Zach graduated from SUNY Purchase College in May 2026 with a degree in Philosophy, a background that shows up in how he approaches AI: asking good questions before reaching for a tool.
