I'm Bart Puszko. When you work with Blue Seas AI, you work with me. My direct number. My direct attention. 16 years of experience applied to your business.

Before this, I spent my career in financial crime and anti-money laundering for major banks across Australia, London, and Europe. When Commonwealth Bank of Australia copped a $700 million AUSTRAC fine, I was brought in to help fix it. I took their quality assurance operation from 20 people to over 100 and built five teams across APAC. High pressure, high scrutiny, 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 watching.

The difference is I now do it for firms with 10-80 people instead of 50,000. And instead of a hundred-person team, I use AI.

The same thinking that helped banks manage billion-dollar risks now helps an 18-person law firm recover $872,000 in annual productivity. Every system is fully managed - we run it, optimise it, and fix what breaks at 2am.

The way we do it is through a structured methodology we call Handover AI. Every engagement starts with mapping your operations, scoring each process against AI readiness and cost drain, and building a 12-month roadmap before a single system is built. It's the same diagnostic discipline I used in banking - applied to businesses that want to move faster, not slower.

Some clients want us to build their AI systems. Others want to learn alongside us. The ones who are serious about AI want both - and if we don't see enough ROI to justify it, we'll tell you before we start. But when a firm director sees what their team can actually do when the admin is gone - that's what makes all of this worth it.

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 your 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.
