About
One practical partner for getting found and getting work done.
Excelsior AI helps established Australian businesses improve search visibility and put bounded AI-assisted systems to work. Based in Geelong, Alban works directly with you on one prioritised roadmap, using AI only where it adds value.
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 connects two sides of the same business: how buyers discover and understand it, and how the team handles the work that follows. Clear website information, useful evidence and dependable systems matter more than another AI tool.
Work starts with your current visibility and operating constraints. Alban helps prioritise the first useful improvement, implement within an agreed scope and review what is working. No ranking guarantees or promises of autonomous staff replacement.
How we work
Four principles behind every engagement.
Start with the business outcome
Being found by the right buyers and giving a stretched team time back are business problems first. Understand the constraint before choosing a tool or an implementation.
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 Australian businesses remotely and across Geelong, Bellarine and Surf Coast in person where useful. One local base, not a network of claimed offices.
