About Brinvik

A face behind the agent.

I'm Kim Olsen, the AI consultant in Copenhagen who runs Brinvik. Before Claude, I spent 18+ years selling, hiring and leading sales teams. I know how a business runs, what it needs on Monday morning, and what it can live without.

Who is behind Brinvik?

Brinvik is one person: me. I started it in 2026 as an AI consultant in Copenhagen, to help companies of 5 to 80 people put Claude to work on real tasks. When you book a call, you talk to me. I scope the work, I build it, I train your people, and I am the one you call afterwards.

There is no account manager between us and no junior team doing the work behind a senior face. That is the point of a one-person studio, and it is why my name and my face are on this page.

18 years with a number to hit

I started at Alm. Brand in 2008, booking meetings across private, business and agriculture insurance. Since then I have sold telecoms, energy, fintech and SaaS, and for most of those years I have led the people who sell. I have hired more than 500 salespeople and built teams from nothing.

Every engagement starts the same way: where do the hours go, and what do they cost.

Why does a sales background matter for AI work?

Because most AI projects stall on adoption and on the business case, not on the model. Eighteen years of carrying a target taught me to start with what the business is measured on, and to judge a tool by whether people still use it a month later.

A new tool is a door. The work is walking the whole team through it.

Change is the job.

Most of my career has been change management with a target attached. Building a team from 0 to 120 people is change. So is moving a whole sales team to a stricter way of qualifying deals, which is how the sales cycle at Byggeprojekt.dk went from 90 days to 15. The tools were never the hard part. Getting people to work differently on a Tuesday afternoon was.

Putting Claude into a company is the same kind of change. This is what I bring from those years.

  1. 01

    Start where the hours go.

    I begin with the work your people already do every week, not with what the model can do in a demo.

  2. 02

    Change the work, not just the tool.

    A licence changes nothing. People adopt what makes their own week easier, so that is what I build and train.

  3. 03

    Measure it in your numbers.

    Hours back, deals moved, replies sent. If it does not show up in what the business already watches, it did not work.

Seller first. Builder now.

In 2026 I started Brinvik to do one thing: put Claude to work in companies that have more work than people. I build the agents and the internal tools myself, including the ones running on this site, and I hold the Anthropic certifications listed below.

I work in Danish, English and Swedish, from Copenhagen.

You talk to me.
Not to a sales department.

The intake is free. I tell you whether Claude pays off in your team and what it costs, and if Brinvik is the wrong shop I say so and name a better one. You owe nothing for the half hour.
