About Chris Slater

AI strategist and full-stack developer bridging the gap between human creativity and machine intelligence.

From SEO to AI-first

I have spent 25+ years building online — launching products, ranking sites, and running digital businesses through every platform shift since the late 1990s. The shift to generative AI is the biggest one yet, and it is the first that changes who the visitor is: increasingly, the “user” reading your site is an AI assistant acting on a human’s behalf.

That is the gap I work in. I combine old-school technical SEO discipline with modern full-stack engineering — React, TypeScript, PHP, Python, and the LLM tool ecosystem — to build sites and agents that are legible to both people and machines.

How I work

I build in public and eat my own cooking: this site is a hybrid WordPress + React application with server-rendered SEO fallbacks, WooCommerce agentic checkout, and WebMCP support — the same architecture I sell. My portfolio spans local-service brands, AI media properties, and experimental agent products.
