Senior AI Engineer · Founder, Hive AI · Creator of Knolo
AI that does real work in your business.
I'm Sam Paniagua. My team at Hive AI builds the automations, agents and integrations that take busywork off small and growing businesses, and keeps them running. I also build Knolo, the open-source framework AI agents use to share knowledge they can verify.

Hive AI · hiveai.tech
One team builds the whole stack.
Not a chatbot company. We plan it, build it, connect it to the tools you already use, then host, monitor and keep improving it month after month.
AI apps & agents
Internal tools, AI apps and agents that do real work.
Workflow automation
Follow-ups, reminders and handoffs that happen on time. Less copy-and-paste between apps.
Data & dashboards
Pipelines that pull your data together, and dashboards you actually use.
Websites & SEO
A fast site that ranks and feeds leads into the rest of your stack.
Voice AI
AI that answers your business line, books, and routes.
01 · Plan
Map where AI pays off
A written plan and quote. You don't need to be technical.
02 · Build
Apps, agents, pipelines
Plus the customer-facing pieces: site, voice and chat.
03 · Connect
Into what you run today
CRM, scheduling, accounting, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365.
04 · Run
Hosted and maintained
Deployed, monitored and improved. We don't vanish after launch.

Knolo: portable knowledge for AI agents.
Pack knowledge into a Knowledge Image, pin it by digest, and let any agent mount it locally and verify what was used. No vector database, no hosted service in the query path.
Pack
Knowledge into a portable Knowledge Image.
Pin
By its stateRoot digest.
Mount
Locally, with @knolo/core.
Receipt
Bytes and plan match, on record.

A receipt confirms the bytes and the plan match. It is not a truth verdict.
// npm i @knolo/core import { migrateV4ToV5, mountKnowledgeImageV5, verifyKnowledgeImageV5, } from '@knolo/core'; const { image, receipt } = await migrateV4ToV5(v4Bytes); const verification = verifyKnowledgeImageV5(image); const mounted = mountKnowledgeImageV5(image); // Same image, same evidence, wherever it runs.

Miami & EuropeAbout
The engineer behind the systems.
I'm Sam Paniagua, a Senior AI Engineer and technical founder with more than two decades spent making complex software useful in the real world.
Hive AI is where that turns into working automations for businesses. Knolo is the open-source layer underneath, so agents can share knowledge you can inspect and verify. I care about one thing in both: systems that still work after the demo.

What's the one task you'd hand off tomorrow?
Send it over. You'll get three practical ideas for automating it. If one makes sense, we'll build it. If not, you keep the ideas.
