AI consulting, led by a practitioner

Enterprise-grade AI for the business you actually run.

I've shipped contact-center and automation AI for Fortune 500 clients at Verint, Nuance, and ENACOMM. Now I bring that same playbook — right-sized, measurable, and without the enterprise price tag — to growing businesses.

Who We Are

LocusArc.AI is led by Kenneth Arakelian, a product executive with 20+ years building and scaling AI-powered contact center and automation solutions for Fortune 500 companies at Verint, Nuance Communications, and ENACOMM.

Ken has led the launch of products now used by some of the largest enterprises in the world — from real-time agent augmentation bots to conversational AI platforms to payment gateways. Now, he's bringing that same caliber of expertise to small and medium-sized businesses that are ready to use AI as a competitive advantage.

This isn't theoretical. We've built and shipped AI products that handle millions of interactions at enterprise scale. We bring that hard-won experience to your business — right-sized and practical.

Why LocusArc.AI

Enterprise Pedigree, SMB Focus

Solutions built on the same principles used by Fortune 500 — adapted for your scale and budget.

Practitioner, Not Just Advisor

We've built and shipped AI products used by millions — we don't just recommend, we deliver.

Human-Centric Approach

AI that augments your team, not replaces them — your people get better, not sidelined.

Vendor-Neutral Guidance

We recommend the right tools for your needs, not the ones that pay us referral fees.

Measurable Outcomes

Every engagement is tied to KPIs you care about — cost savings, speed, quality, revenue.

We Teach You to Fish

We don't create dependency — we transfer knowledge so your team can own, evolve, and expand AI on their own.
