Big week at Voss AI Consulting.

Our founder Dr. Rob Voss was appointed to the Missouri Department of Higher Education and Workforce Development's Advisory Committee for Building Missouri's AI Talent Pipeline — one of about 30 people statewide advising on how Missouri prepares its workforce for AI. The same week, he was named founding chair of Northwest Missouri State University's new Standing Committee on Artificial Intelligence.

On Saturday, Rob delivered a keynote at the AI Prompt Championships KC Regional, presenting the "Two Literacies" framework to 100+ competitors and judges — why knowing how to prompt is only half the equation, and why organizations need people who understand how AI fits into process, policy, and people.

In between, we shipped PageForge AI — a tool that generates HubSpot landing pages in 60 seconds — built using Anthropic's Cowork, and continued adding to the free Voss AI Labs tool suite at vossaiconsulting.com.

New tools. New appointments. New stages. Just another week at Voss AI Consulting.

It's getting tough to describe all of my AI work. This is Gemini's version.

03/04/2026

Here's a stat that should bother everyone:
78% of companies have AI tools. Only 6% of their employees feel comfortable using them.

That's a $5.5 trillion problem. That's a teaching problem.

One year ago this month, I launched Voss AI Consulting from my office at Northwest Missouri State with a pretty simple idea: people don't need more AI hype. They need someone who can actually teach them how to use it.

12 months later, I've trained over 500 people — business owners, employees, school teachers, administrators, university faculty, and everyone in between. Dozens of workshops. Near-universal satisfaction. Real, measurable improvements in how people understand and use AI.

I was also selected as one of 89 OpenAI Academy faculty worldwide. Missouri's only representative. Still a little surreal.

But here's the part I didn't plan.

Every training, every workshop, every conversation kept surfacing the same thing: people didn't just need to learn about AI. They needed tools that actually worked for them. I needed a better teleprompter. I needed my research tools to talk to each other. I needed image optimization that didn't send my files to someone else's server.

So I built them. And then people started asking if they could use them too.

Today I'm officially launching Voss AI Labs — the product side of Voss AI Consulting.

Five tools, all live right now:
PromptFlow — A smart teleprompter with AI coaching
ScrollStop — Content tools to make social media work for you
CiteBridge — Connects Zotero to Google's NotebookLM for researchers
Photo Optimizer — Compress and convert images right in your browser
LitHelper — Literature discovery built for academics

Check them all out at vossaiconsulting.com/pages/labs

And there's more coming. ContentForge is next — AI-powered content creation that keeps your voice and your ideas front and center.

If you know someone whose team needs help figuring out AI — not the hype, just a clear path forward — send them my way. That's exactly what we do.

LeadershipAI 1pm central- vossaiconsulting.com/leadershipai

02/17/2026

Thursday at 1pm Central, the first LeadershipAI session goes live.

It's a monthly briefing for business leaders who need clarity on AI — not another webinar, not a sales pitch, not a 47-page whitepaper nobody reads.

What you get: a live session every month, a weekly curated PDF, session recordings, and real Q&A. Advisory members also get a monthly 1-on-1 call with me.

I built this because leaders keep telling me the same thing - they know AI matters but don't where to start. As an OpenAI Academy faculty member working with businesses every day, that's exactly the gap I fill.

Starting at $149/month. First 10 members get in at $129. Founding spots are going.

Details:

An exclusive, ongoing engagement for executives and leaders working through AI challenges unique to their roles. Led by OpenAI Academy faculty.

People ask me all the time why I choose Claude over ChatGPT. Comparing the two reactions to the same prompt pretty much sums it up.
If you want to know more, let's connect.

Saturday, we had an awesome time of learning, building, and discussing how to leverage AI to the best of our abilities at the IIBA Kansas City Chapter's Hearts and Smarts Workshop. Four hours of intense, focused, upskilling on AI.
This wasn't for beginners. This was for seasoned professionals who see what is happening in business and don't want to get left behind.

One attendee said later "It was the best presentation ever." Another said she thought it was worth way more than they paid.

By the end, people didn't say thanks and leave - they stayed, connected, and asked about what's next.

What's next? 𝑳𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑𝑨𝑰, a monthly meetup for you to keep up with AI. LeadershipAI is not a newsletter but a group conversation and understanding around AI and it's implications for people in the same business space. If you are interested, let me know.

If your team is looking for training or you have an "AI council" but now need to take it to the next step, let's talk.

I am not spending the weekend installing OpenClaude. If you haven't heard, 1.5 million AI agents are talking to each other. They are taking actions and working on projects to do things in real life. They are on moltbook.com and debating philosophy and the meaning of life!

But I'm not installing it, yet. As an open source and new idea, it has extremely challenging security problems. Because it is so interesting, many non-technical people are enabling their agents to connect - but without the necessary limitations on what those agents can do.

Version 2, which will probably come out next week, might address this. For now, I will just watch from the sidelines.

What does a 14,860% ROI on AI look like?

I just completed something I've never seen done before: a comprehensive analysis of my own Claude.ai usage over 12 months. Think Spotify Wrapped for my AI use

I asked Claude to audit our entire conversation history and calculate the real value generated.

The numbers:
📊 142 conversations analyzed
⏱️ 218 hours saved
💰 $64,065 in estimated value
💳 $340 total investment

What that actually looked like:
→ 24 custom apps and tools built (assessment systems, automation workflows, classroom tools)
→ 38 consulting deliverables (pitch decks, proposals, client strategies)
→ 32 academic projects (course redesigns, lecture materials, student recommendations)
→ 15+ newsletter editions published
→ Countless hours of research, writing, and strategy development

This isn't theoretical. This is 12 months of documented, categorized, real-world usage. And this is just on one tool. I haven't even counted the number of hours that I saved for others either.

The question isn't whether AI will transform your work. It's whether you'll measure it when it does.

If you want help calculating YOUR potential AI ROI, let's talk. I've built the framework—now I can help you apply it. Vossaiconsulting.com
