About Us

Smith Labs is a U.S.-based boutique consultancy focused on pragmatic AI and digital assets advisory for regulated and mission-driven organizations. We help teams identify high-ROI use cases, stand up rapid proofs of concept, and integrate responsible AI and crypto capabilities with clear governance.

The practice is grounded in 10+ years across private credit, private equity, valuation, and portfolio analytics, alongside public-sector solutions architecture for digital-asset accounting and investigations. Credentials include an active Public Trust (IRS) and certifications such as TRM Crypto Fundamentals (2025), Certified Web3 Community Expert (2023), and MIT Sloan Blockchain Business Applications (2019).

Digital assets: A decade of investing and research across ecosystems, platforms, and consensus mechanisms. Practical expertise in treasury operations, custody architectures (e.g., MPC and multisig), risk & controls, vendor evaluation, and briefing stakeholders on policy and regulatory implications. Advisory only; not legal, tax, or investment advice.

AI: Hands-on with leading LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, and others) and advanced prompt engineering. We scope and prioritize use cases, build lightweight prototypes, and design integrations and workflow automations: always vendor-neutral, privacy-aware, and governance-minded.

  • Outcome-first: rapid pilots that prove value, then scale.
  • Governance & compliance: privacy, security, and auditability by design.
  • Knowledge transfer: enable your teams—not create dependency.
