Greg Brainerd

Technology entrepreneur in Texas. I founded Braintek, a managed IT services company serving Houston and Dallas–Fort Worth since 2002, and I build software products for the weighing and measurement industry.

About

I've run Braintek for over twenty years, giving growing Texas businesses a real IT department: security, help desk, cloud, and automation. Along the way, whenever I needed a tool that didn't exist, I built it. Those tools grew into a family of software products for scale service companies and field service teams.

Today my focus is business automation and practical AI. I take the repetitive work out of service businesses so people can spend their time on customers.
