For Australian businesses doing $1M to $100M

Your team has work no one has time to do.

We build the AI Workforce OS™ that takes repeatable work off your people - client documents, quoting, meeting notes, CRM updates and proposals - while your team reviews everything before it’s sent out.

NxtLayr AI is a Sydney-based fractional AI team helping Australian businesses ($1M–$100M revenue, 10–500+ staff) put AI to work without enterprise overhead. Engagements begin with an AI Operations Diagnostic, followed by an AI Workforce OS™ implementation and optional ongoing support through Managed AI Operations or Fractional Head of AI.

The Shift

Your work is spread across too many tools.

Emails in one place. Files in another. Notes somewhere else again. Your team burns hours just finding things and piecing them together. And AI can’t help much, because it can’t see the full picture either.

01

Time lost searching

People hop between apps all day, hunting for the file, the email, the last note. The work starts late every time.

02

Work done twice

The same client details sit in five places. Nobody’s sure which one is right, so it gets re-done.

03

AI you can’t trust yet

Bolt AI onto the mess and you get generic answers. It can’t see your business, so it can’t act like it knows it.

The AI Workforce OS™

One system that sees the whole business.

Built for financial planning, corporate advisory, mortgage broking and accounting. Your tools, your context and your everyday work run as one, with your team keeping the final say.

Connected Tools

Your whole stack in one place

We plug into the systems already holding your work, so nothing new to babysit.

Chris set up Claude on my MacBook and configured it specifically for how I work as a mortgage broker. He took the time to understand the business before touching anything, which made a real difference - what he built actually fits the way I operate day to day. Straightforward to work with, knows his stuff, and didn't overcomplicate anything. If you're a small business owner wanting to get AI working properly (not just installed), Chris is worth talking to.

We brought Chris from NxtLayr in to consult for us. He ran an AI audit which found a few gaps in our process. We're a concrete business and before meeting Chris I assumed AI couldn't do much for us. The team is fully in the know and using the AI System every day now for quoting, writing scopes, admin, and more. If you're a business owner who knows AI is coming but has no idea where to start then talk to him. We couldn't recommend him more highly.

Chris built my dental business a custom AI operating system. He connected my tools into AI so now I can ask it questions on my revenue, customers, and it helps me get more things done in my day.

I was hearing a lot about AI but not knowing where to start. Chris was very knowledgeable and patiently explained the advantages. Many of his recommendations were surprisingly low cost and easy to use. The audit paid for itself already, and we plan to engage NxtLayr AI to automate more processes.

Every business owner is either already engaging with AI to looking to start. The conversation I had with Chris and the audit he conducted on my business was helped me understand it where to start and how easy it can be to get some quick wins. Thank you

How we work

From opportunity to operating capability.

We find where AI will matter, build the workforce around your business, then keep improving it as your operation changes.

01

AI Operations Diagnostic

Diagnose the opportunity

We map the workflows, systems, controls and bottlenecks, then give leadership a prioritised 90-day roadmap built around the highest-value opportunities.

02

AI Workforce OS™

Build your AI Workforce

We build your AI Workforce so it knows your business and team, with the most manual tasks taken off your people at launch.

03

Ongoing AI operations

Maintain and expand

Our team guides your AI strategy, team enablement and future agentic development, keeping the system running and building more agents on its foundations.

Why a team, not a hire

Build an AI capability, not another single point of failure.

A senior AI hire can take months to find and leaves the business dependent on one person. NxtLayr AI combines strategy, implementation and team enablement around a system your business owns.

About
Chris Gulotta, Founder of NxtLayr AI

Built by someone who’s been on your side of the table.

Chris Gulotta is the founder of NxtLayr AI. He spent the last 7+ years at some of the world’s biggest technology companies in cyber security and e-commerce, and has been consulting and selling AI solutions since 2022 - so when he maps your operation, he’s thinking about what actually closes and what the team will actually use, not just what’s technically possible.

NxtLayr works with Australian mid-market businesses across manufacturing, distribution, professional services, and more. The goal is always the same: AI that earns its place in your operation, not AI for the sake of it.

Updated July 2026

Book a free 30-minute AI Strategy Call - no pitch, no pressure. We'll look at where AI fits in your operation and whether an AI Operations Diagnostic is the right next step.

Over two weeks, we interview the people closest to the work, map the systems and bottlenecks, identify the three highest-value AI opportunities, and deliver a prioritised 90-day roadmap to leadership.

That's exactly who this is built for. Every recommendation comes with a plain-English explanation of what it does, why it matters and what acting on it actually involves.

Professional services (legal, accounting, planning, consulting), financial services, manufacturing & distribution, healthcare groups, multi-location operators, construction & engineering firms, logistics, and insurance. Australian businesses doing $1M–$100M in revenue with 10–500+ staff. We do not serve sole traders, single-cafe hospitality, or single-shop retail - those are better served by lower-cost specialist agencies.

It is the operating layer that connects AI to your existing tools, business context and repeatable workflows. Instead of isolated experiments, your team gets a controlled system that can handle defined work with clear ownership and human review.

No. The findings, opportunity briefs and roadmap are yours. You can implement internally, use another provider, or ask NxtLayr to build the first priority workflow.

The Diagnostic runs over two weeks. From there, we scope the first implementation around the workflow, integrations and controls involved, then roll out further capability in stages.
