Why I Let AI Tell My Story (And Why You Should Too)

Here’s something that would have sounded like science fiction five years ago: I just had three AI tools—Claude, Perplexity, and Manus—build comprehensive biographical websites about my work and thinking. Not from scratch. Not from thin air. From five decades of actual data, scattered across the web and buried in my personal files.

The result? Three living documents that tell my story better than I probably could myself:

The Evolution of Sports Thinking The Evolution of Strategic Thinking The First Fan Development Organization in Pro Sports

The Process Was Surprisingly Human

I started with Claude to help organize and analyze years of interviews, articles, case studies, and internal documents from Comunicano’s 60 startup exits. Think of it as having a research assistant who never gets tired and can instantly cross-reference everything you’ve ever said publicly with everything you’ve accomplished privately.

Perplexity then became my fact-checker, verifying claims and finding connections I’d forgotten—like how our early work in sports marketing actually predicted patterns we’d later see in tech acquisitions. It’s remarkable what patterns emerge when you can process five decades of work in thirty minutes.

Manus took it home, transforming all that verified information into clean, navigable websites that actually capture how I think, not just what I’ve done.

Why This Matters More Than You Think

We’re living through an information crisis. Misinformation and disinformation have been named the top global risk for 2025 by the World Economic Forum. Everyone’s an expert, every claim is contested, and authentic accomplishment gets buried under manufactured influence. When someone can buy followers but can’t buy a track record, verified truth becomes a competitive advantage.

For professionals like us—the ones actually moving deals, building companies, creating value—having AI-curated, verifiable documentation isn’t vanity. It’s necessity. When I say Comunicano has been involved in $9.4 billion worth of exits, with acquisitions by Google, Vonage, Yahoo, and IBM, that’s not a LinkedIn humblebrag. That’s checkable fact, now organized in a way that shows the thinking behind the results.

The Unexpected Benefits

The exercise revealed something surprising: AI doesn’t just organize information—it identifies patterns human memory loses. Connections between seemingly unrelated projects. Evolution in thinking over time. The thread between early “out of the box” ideas and later industry firsts. More practically, it solved the professional documentation problem we all face. How do you present five decades of work without writing a novel? How do you demonstrate strategic thinking without drowning in case studies? AI curation gives you the highlights reel, but with footnotes.

The Real Value Proposition

This isn’t about building monuments to ourselves. It’s about building trust in an age of information chaos. When anyone can claim anything, verifiable achievement becomes currency. When AI can research you anyway, better that it finds organized truth than scattered fragments.

The tools are there. The process works. The question isn’t whether AI will tell your story—it’s whether you’ll help it get the story right.

In a world where perception often trumps reality, reality supported by AI verification might just be the ultimate disruption.
