How Family Offices Can Use Google’s AI Ops Playbook
This webinar breaks down how Google builds AI agents for operations, and how family offices can deploy the same systems.
What if you had a digital team working 24/7?
And they received zero salary, had no turnover, and made no mistakes.
That would be pretty cool, huh?
What if they handled research, sent updates, tracked reports, and even flagged risks. Quietly. Reliably. They never even asked for vacation.
That’s what Google’s new book, Agentic Design Patterns: A Hands-On Guide to Building Intelligent Systems, by Antonio Gullí, is about.
And we’re doing a webinar on Tuesday September 30, to teach your family office how to use it.
They’ve published the instruction manual for how to build this kind of intelligent system. Not a robot, not sci-fi.
Just software agents that follow clear rules, ask smart questions, and can learn over time.
A senior engineer at Google, Antonio Gulli, just released a 400-page book.
Here’s the Google Docs version of it. It’s probably a little nicer if you buy it online.
Agentic Design Patterns: A Hands-On Guide to Building Intelligent Systems
At first glance, it’s a technical manual.
But if you’re running a family office, it’s WAY more than that.
This is a blueprint for building reliable digital support staff.
Software agents that act like smart junior team members. They don’t replace your team. They extend it.
Here’s what they can do:
Track communications with GPs, lawyers, and managers
Monitor documents, deadlines, or fund performance
Ask for human input when needed (not guess or go rogue)
Write first drafts of research, memos, or updates
Scale up quietly, without hiring or onboarding cycles
Google uses these systems internally.
This book shows how to bring them in-house, with safety and control baked in.
You don’t want hype. You want quiet, efficient modernization.

Recommended Courses To Upskill Your Family Office Team
Google Digital Cloud Leader: Start with this one. It’s short, and also gives basic foundation-level concepts on Google Cloud Platform and Cloud Security. If you need me to get your family office up and running on Google Cloud Platform with, say, $5k worth of credits, just reply to this email. If you’d like the same for Microsoft Azure or Amazon Web Services, that’s fine. Our team is platform agnostic. We want your family office to be wherever you feel comfortable, safe and relaxed - on-prem or off-prem.
AI For Business Specialization (Penn - Coursera) - This one is also fairly brief. You don’t need any code or engineering background, either. It focuses on the strategic application of AI in finance, operations, and decision-making. Teaches family office leaders how to lead or evaluate AI initiatives, not build them.
