Fervent defender of Neo, he first started with Mouse as a web developer. Following many updates, and more than 15 years of hard fighting, he is now in control of the Oracle as PO/PM and Product Coach to better guide this small team.

A.D. Slaton is the founder of Stillriver Solutions, an AI engineering consultancy helping teams build effective workflows with coding agents. He advises startup founders and enterprise CTOs on AI enablement, teaching the Core 4 Framework—Model, Context, Prompt, and Tools—through hands-on workshops and advisory engagements.

A.D. spent 13+ years building mission-critical streaming platforms at Turner Broadcasting, CNN, and Warner Bros Discovery. His systems served millions during March Madness, NBA playoffs, and breaking news coverage—environments where failure wasn’t an option. That background shaped his engineering philosophy: build foundations that work under pressure, not demos that impress in ideal conditions.

In 2025, A.D. launched Stillriver to focus fully on AI enablement. He works daily in Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and agentic coding environments, maintaining his own AI workstation with local models. The Core 4 Framework emerged from this hands-on practice—a teachable mental model for understanding why AI tools work when they work.

A.D. is a Lehigh University alum, a member of the Henry County Chamber of Commerce, and co-founder of the Slaton Cares Foundation, a nonprofit focused on direct assistance to individuals in need. He believes the gap between AI hype and AI usefulness is a training problem, not a technology problem—and that foundational knowledge should be shared openly.

Based in Metro Atlanta, Georgia.

Most founders are stuck building a job for themselves, not a company. Chris Wiser builds systems that buy back time, drive relentless revenue, and leverage the next frontier of technology: the AI-First Economy.

As a 2x Inc. 5000 entrepreneur, Chris specializes in transforming stagnant companies into high-margin, scalable engines. His philosophy is simple: think bigger, execute faster, and automate the mundane. After hearing Chris speak, audiences walk away with practical frameworks they can immediately apply to scale revenue, remove themselves as the bottleneck, and build infrastructure that actually supports growth.

Chris brings over 30 years of experience in the technology industry and has scaled and sold his own MSP. In the last three years alone, he has driven 2,416% revenue growth in a tumultuous industry, earning multiple top-tier recognitions, including multiple 2CCX awards and two appearances on the Inc. 5000 list, including a top-ranking finish. His impact extends beyond business, with a scholarship established in his honor at his alma mater.

Chris’s work today centers on execution, not hype:
AI Profit Systems – Through AI Profit Machine, Chris helps business leaders move past the noise and build real AI infrastructure. His “Business-in-a-Box” model and embedded dev teams allow founders to launch high-ticket AI advisory services and turn AI into a true profit center.
Scale & Sales Psychology – As the Founder of 7 Figure MSP™, Chris has coached over 1,500 MSP owners, rebuilding their B2B sales processes for the modern era and helping them stop playing small.
Thought Leadership – Chris is a 10x best-selling author, with every book reaching the #1 spot on Amazon, including Making Your First $1 Million with AI and upcoming work focused on digital safety and the next generation of technology leaders.

Chris’s insights and commentary have been featured on:
The Entrepreneurs Radio Show
School for Startups Radio
SmallBizAmerica Radio
National television including ABC, FOX, CNBC, and NBC

He is known for being polarizing - and he wears it as a badge of honor. Chris challenges founders to become true leaders, not just high-level “doers.” He believes industries are disrupted by execution, not consensus, and that real growth requires confronting uncomfortable truths.

Whether speaking on stage, leading high-level coaching ecosystems, or hosting private experiences like the AI Profit Machine House at SXSW, Chris’s mission remains singular: create millionaires and change lives through ruthless execution.

When he isn’t supporting his favorite racing teams, rooting for the Green Bay Packers, or speaking on stage, Chris lives in Austin, Texas, where he enjoys spending time with friends and family.

If you’re looking for fluff, Chris is not your speaker.
If you’re ready to scale, dominate your market, and lead with AI - he is.
