Who is Fer Patel?

Fer Patel is VP of AI Strategy at Skipio, founder of AI Unleashed Intensive, and a former Director at HighLevel. He builds the AI infrastructure that agency businesses run on and has supported over 4,000 agencies through products and community.

For 15 years, I've been at the intersection of platform infrastructure and business growth — from fintech rails to SaaS ecosystems to the AI tools that agencies rely on daily.

I founded GHL Experts, scaled it to 4,000+ agencies, and sold it. I went inside HighLevel as Director of Special Projects to help shape the platform from within. Now I'm leading AI strategy at Skipio and running AI Unleashed Intensive — helping agencies actually implement AI, not just talk about it.

I've also shipped 4 products in the HighLevel ecosystem — SuperFunnels AI, Super Cloner, Super Editor, and Calibre.ai — used by thousands of operators every day. I was the first-ever GHL Foundry Faculty Member, and I've spent years in community because that's where real understanding comes from.

"The best technology doesn't replace people — it makes them capable of things they couldn't do alone."

I show up the same way every time: lead with generosity, build with precision, and never forget who it's actually for.
