About

An operator, not a theorist.

You don't need another vendor selling magic. You need someone who has already done the work inside a real business, and can do it inside yours.

Greg Kienast — founder

I run my own company on AI


I was trained as a scientist at the University of Illinois. Molecular and cellular biology, which is a long way of saying I was taught to take apart complex systems. Then I spent a decade in the rooms where big marketing actually happens. Almost five years at Electronic Arts, running a $5 million a year book of business. Then Samba TV, where I led a team of eight doing $15 million+ a year in viewership data for the agencies and advertisers who spent it.

I left that to build Imperia Technologies, a custom smart-home company in Naperville. One shop. Me in it.

The interesting part isn't that I run a small business. It's that I built the AI that runs it. Quotes, marketing, the website, the books, inbound calls: workstreams shaped around how this shop actually operates, not around someone else's software. Faster output. Better data. Same person, more company.

That's why Imperia Forged exists. I'm not selling a stack from the outside. I already did this inside a real business.

"I'm one person, in one shop, running enterprise-grade systems for my own business. Not because I have a development team. Because I no longer need one."
