FRACTIONAL AI LEAD

AI for Your Business

Your part-time AI lead.

Most teams have a few people using ChatGPT or Copilot on their own, no rules about customer data, and nobody turning it into real time savings. I find where AI saves your team hours, set it up, train your people until they actually use it, and keep it safe.

Healthcare practices: AI adoption with HIPAA in mind. I review where patient data could reach AI tools, check vendor BAAs and AI vendor risk, and set guardrails before rollout. Background: 10 years in hospital and clinical IT plus HIPAA Security Risk Assessment experience.

Not legal advice; I work alongside your compliance and legal advisors.

Experiments

From the lab

Smaller builds and experiments where we test ideas fast.

Practice tool

Dispatch Ready

A practice emulator for the CritiCall 911 dispatcher exam, with spoken audio scenarios, timed drills, progress tracking, and a full mock exam mode.

Lab

Squadron Ops

A team dashboard that uses AI to read leaderboard screenshots, then routes every parsed result through a human review step to confirm or correct it before it counts.

Internal

J5 Ledger

Our internal quoting, invoicing, and tax-reporting tool, with Washington State tax rules built into the data model.

What we build

Products built around real problems.

Practical, fast, and useful. We focus on shipping things that earn their place in a real workflow.

SaaS platforms

Operational software for small businesses that replaces spreadsheets, sticky notes, and clunky legacy tools.

AI assistants & workflows

Practical AI that removes busywork — built around real tasks, not demos.

Mobile & user-focused apps

Fast, focused apps that people actually open every day.

Audio branding & media

Sonic identity, jingles, and creative media that make a brand instantly recognizable.

Why J5

Lean, fast, and focused on usefulness.

Real-world problems first

We start with the problem, not the tech. Every product begins with a real user and a real pain point.

Fast product development

Small team, short cycles. Ship a useful v1, learn from real usage, and iterate quickly.

Practical AI & automation

AI applied where it actually helps — assistants, workflow tools, and behind-the-scenes automation.

About the founder

Built by Johnny Warren.

I spent 10 years in hospital and clinical IT, implementing EMRs, owning about 150 enterprise applications across two hospitals, and migrating 50+ clinics without critical downtime. I've also co-founded and run startups, including eight years as COO and then CEO of Yayday, a consumer app that grew past 100,000 users. Today I build with AI every day and work in healthcare security risk and AI governance. Outside of work I lead ground teams and teach in the academy for Spokane County Search and Rescue, and serve as an Honorary Commander with the 141st Air Refueling Wing.
