About Hank

Who writes prentusai.com, why the site exists, and why the author uses a pseudonym.

I'm Hank. I'm the one writing prentusai.com.

Short version

I run operations at a small finance office. I started running AI agents on top of my workflow in late 2025, mostly n8n and Claude, then OpenClaw when it hit 100,000 GitHub stars in 48 hours in January 2026, then NemoClaw the day NVIDIA announced it at GTC. Every existing guide for these tools was written for developers. I'm not a developer. So I started writing the guides I wished I'd had.

What this site is

A plain-English field guide to OpenClaw, NemoClaw, and n8n for business owners. No developer jargon without translation. Every news article links to primary sources in the first paragraph. Every install guide has been run on real hardware. Every security note applies to real compliance situations.

What this site isn't

A trade publication. A corporate blog. An SEO content farm. Anonymous. It's one person writing about tools they actually use.

Why pseudonymous

My day job is in a regulated industry. Writing publicly about AI agents under my real name creates perception issues I'm not willing to manage right now. So I use "Hank" across this site, the YouTube channel, and anywhere else this work shows up publicly. The legal entity that operates the site is PrentusAI LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. If you need to reach a real human legally or commercially, that's the entity and team@prentusai.com is the address.

Pseudonymous doesn't mean dishonest. It means one layer of privacy between my day job and my side work. Everything on this site is what I actually think; the only thing I'm hiding is which office I walk into on Monday morning.

How I think about this

I didn't come to AI from a CS background. I came from running operations in a small business. I see AI tools the way I see any other tool: does it save time, does it introduce risk, does it pay for itself, will it still work in 90 days. Most of the "AI for business" content on the internet is marketing in disguise. This site is the opposite; I'll tell you when something is broken, when an install is annoying, when a claim doesn't survive 30 minutes of real use.

What I use (and what you'll see me recommend)

Affiliate disclosure: Some outbound links on this site are affiliate links. I only recommend tools I'm actively using in my own stack. If a tool I recommend stops working for me, I stop recommending it. Disclosure of which specific links are affiliate is made at the point of each link.

How to reach me

I read everything. I answer most things within a week.

What's next

The short version of the roadmap: more NemoClaw install guides, an OpenClaw for finance and compliance series, a first-person "30 days running this stack in a real office" report, and a YouTube companion series to the written guides. If there's a specific thing you want covered, email me.
