17 years fixing broken processes at Australia's biggest banks. Now I do it with AI.

I'm Bart Puszko. When you work with me, you get me. Every client gets my direct number, my direct attention, and 17 years of experience applied to their business.

Before Blue Seas AI, I spent nearly two decades in financial crime, risk, and consulting for major banks - in Melbourne, London, and Warsaw. I was brought into Commonwealth Bank of Australia after their $700 million AUSTRAC fine. I took their quality assurance team from 20 people to over 100, built and managed five teams across APAC, and helped turn around processes that were broken at a scale most people never see.

Two and a half years of building systems under pressure, under scrutiny, with no room to get it wrong. That's where I learned what I do now: take broken processes, build systems around them, and make them run without anyone babysitting them.

The difference is I now do it for firms with 5-25 people instead of 50,000. And instead of a hundred-person team, I use AI.

I moved to the Sunshine Coast, fell in love with AI, and realised the same strategic thinking that helped banks manage billion-dollar risks could help a 10-person law firm save 15 hours a week. We've now recovered $872,000 in annual productivity for one firm alone. 15 out of 15 clients have rated us 5 stars. And every system we build is fully managed - we run it, optimise it, and fix what breaks at 2am.

Some clients want us to build. Others want to learn alongside us. The best ones want both. Either way, if we don't see enough ROI to justify the work, we'll tell you. That moment when a business owner's eyes light up and says "Wait... it can do THAT?" - that's why I do this.

How We Work

Three principles that protect your investment

ROI or we don't do it

Every engagement is anchored to the return you can expect. If the value isn't there, we'll say so. We've walked away from projects that didn't make financial sense for the client.

We manage it for you

We don't hand you a tool and disappear. Every service is fully managed. We run the AI systems, optimise them, and take care of bug fixes, model updates, and anything that breaks.

Honest, always

AI is not a silver bullet. Most tools out there are just ChatGPT with lipstick. We'll tell you what AI can and can't do - and we'll never promise something we're not sure we can deliver.

Recognition

Independently validated

We don't just claim expertise. Independent judges, government bodies, and industry panels have verified it.

In the Room

Not behind a screen. In front of you.

Whether it's a boardroom strategy session, a hands-on workshop at the Sunshine Coast Libraries, or walking through your first AI system live - I'm there. AI advisory shouldn't be done over email.

The Team

Small team. Big results.

We're deliberately small. That means you get direct access to the people shaping your AI strategy - not account managers passing messages to developers you'll never meet.
