Sip & Soar: Welcome to 'E-coffee with Experts' - Brewing Wisdom, One Expert Conversation at a Time. Grab Your Digital Mug, Let's Elevate Together!
In this episode of E-Coffee with Experts, our host Austin Willman chats with Patrick Cunningham, Director & Co-Founder at Indulge, about how technical agencies can meaningfully use AI to elevate software quality, sales outreach, and long-term client value.
Patrick explains the discipline of human-centered research (talking to real users), how account-based AI research warms high-value leads, and why experienced developers remain essential even as tools like Claude Code and Codex accelerate delivery.
He walks through a real case (the My Breastfriend health app), showing how AI helped ship more secure, better-tested code — and why some projects should never be vibecoded without expert audits.
If you’re a founder, product lead, agency director, or marketer exploring AI for dev workflows, security, or ABM, this episode delivers practical frameworks, risk questions (GDPR/payment data), and a roadmap for blending human expertise with modern tooling.
