Still here. Still building.
The maker behind MayneAI.
The maker behind MayneAI.
I grew up on cattle properties in Western Queensland and the Northern Territory — motorbikes, horses and wide-open spaces. My parents were champion rodeo riders. I inherited their competitive spirit and a stubborn determination to keep going.
In 2022, a snowboarding accident changed the direction of my life. I was diagnosed with epilepsy and functional neurological disorder (FND), and the kind of physical work I could do changed. I had to find another way forward. I wasn’t done building.
Since then, I have taught myself how to work with AI in practical, repeatable ways. Over time, I developed a particular focus on ChatGPT and Claude — giving them useful context, structuring work clearly and keeping a person responsible for the result.
That is the thread connecting Get Shakey, Mayne & Sons and now MayneAI. The work looks different, but the reason hasn’t changed: create useful things, build something lasting for my sons, and help other people move towards their goals with more confidence in a fast-changing AI world.
MayneAI is a small Brisbane business. I build the packs, explain what they do and answer the messages. When you contact MayneAI, you’re talking with me.
Still here. Still building.
Epilepsy and FND are personal to me. As MayneAI grows, I intend to donate to organisations supporting people and families affected by these conditions.
If you would like to help, you can donate directly to Epilepsy Action Australia or FND Australia Support Services.
Have a question about a pack or getting started? You’ll hear from me, Phillip.
