Lisa is a strategist, entrepreneur, and systems thinker with a relentless focus on making business simpler, smarter, and more sustainable. With over a decade of experience across marketing, tech, and financial strategy, Lisa co-founded Alvyr to close the gap between small businesses and the kind of financial clarity usually reserved for enterprise-level firms.
Having worked across multiple industries and international borders — Lisa understands the complexity of modern business ownership. Alvyr is the product of that lived experience: a platform built not just to crunch numbers, but to empower founders with actionable insight, automation, and AI-driven tools that make decisions easier, faster, and more strategic.
At the core of Lisa’s philosophy is the belief that data should serve the business owner — not overwhelm them. She’s led teams, scaled an agency to 7 figures, and advised companies through high-growth phases, all while seeing firsthand how the wrong financial systems can stall great ideas.
Alvyr is for the future: a next-generation financial partner for UK small and medium sized businesses, designed to streamline bookkeeping, eliminate errors, optimise tax and payment strategies, while offering a real-time view of business health — all in one place.
Lisa brings both big-picture vision and grounded operational experience to the table. She knows what it’s like to be the founder wearing every hat — and she’s built Alvyr to be the tool she wishes she had years ago.
Olam comes in as the co-founder and CTO of Alvyr. He is driven by a passion for democratising financial expertise through the power of AI. His journey to founding Alvyr is rooted in his own firsthand experiences. After successfully building and selling three tech businesses, he founded a marketing analytics and data agency. It was during this time, while navigating the complexities of his own finances, that he saw a critical need for a more intelligent and accessible accounting solution.
His personal mission is to simplify and empower others in their financial lives, and it's this mission that led him to create Alvyr. With a proven track record as a serial entrepreneur, including multiple six-figure exits, Olam brings deep expertise in building successful companies from the ground up.
Beyond Alvyr, he is dedicated to fostering innovation in the tech community as a Venture Scout for A.I.D. Ventures. In this role, he focuses on supporting inclusive VCs and investing in companies that align with the future of "altruistic alpha"—using technology for both profit and positive impact.
