Raphaël Piccolo

AI & business process automation · Full-stack lead developer

I put AI to work inside business processes, in production: medical coding, request triage and follow-up, document checks, coding agents. 17 years of designing and running business software give me the ground truth: I know where AI pays off, and how to plug it into existing systems without breaking anything.

    • AI agents in production: triage, summary and follow-up of incoming requests (email, WhatsApp, forms), automatic reminders.
    • Agent-driven development (Claude Code, MCP) across the whole fleet: 83 projects kept in line by 306 automated checks.
    • 16 live business demos on rm-lab.fr (property management, HR, time tracking, real estate, restaurants…), including AI-assisted customer support.
