About
A workflow consultancy that treats AI as a tool, not a religion.
Excelsior AI helps Geelong, Bellarine and Surf Coast businesses find the workflow limiting their next stage of growth — admin, follow-up, quoting, CRM, email, spreadsheets — then builds the systems, automation and practical AI needed to scale more smoothly.
The founder
Founded by Alban de Vaucorbeil, based in Geelong.
Founder, Excelsior AI
Alban brings a research and startup background, with experience thinking deeply about complex systems, AI, technical products and practical implementation.
Excelsior AI exists to help local businesses use AI and automation in ways that are useful, trusted and measurable — not hype-driven. That means starting from the business pain, not the technology: the missed enquiry, the quote nobody chased, the spreadsheet that became a system of record by accident.
How we work
Four principles behind every engagement.
Start with the bottleneck
Not the tool, not the trend. The slow part of the process is where the value is — everything else follows from understanding it properly.
Simplest useful fix
Sometimes that's AI. Sometimes it's a better form, a cleaner CRM step, a template or a reminder sequence. The fix should be as boring as it can afford to be.
Humans stay in the loop
Customer-facing messages, quotes and sensitive decisions keep a human approval step. Automation should add control, not remove it.
No hype, no fake proof
No invented testimonials, no inflated ROI promises, no 'AI transformation' theatre. If something is an illustrative example, it's labelled as one.
Where we work
Based in Geelong, working with businesses across Geelong, Bellarine and Surf Coast — in person where it is useful, remote where it makes sense.
