Severi Tempakka

Founder · Tempori
Strategy on paper, AI in production. The same hands across both.

Background in corporate strategy at UPM, Huhtamaki, Siili Solutions, Cargotec, and Neste. Facilitating board-level conversations, running M&A due diligence, and turning ambiguous business questions into ranked, actionable plans. The work that uncovered over €100M in opportunity at Huhtamaki, accepted by group leadership, is the same work that scopes Tempori engagements today. Only now the action is AI implementation rather than capital allocation.

Background

Severi did not start in AI. He started in corporate strategy, where companies pay people to spot opportunities before everyone else. That work taught him how senior leadership identifies, evaluates, and acts on strategic moves, the same capability he now brings to AI transformation. Spotting where AI creates real value inside a business is not a technical skill. It is a strategic one.

When AI tooling matured, Severi built and ran an AI automation business serving small and mid-market companies. The pattern across 150+ engagements was unmistakable: companies that bought a workflow and walked away got marginal gains; companies that learned how the system worked got step-change improvements across the business. The gap was never the tool. It was internal capability. Tempori was built around that observation as a 12-week done-with-you program that puts the backbone in place once, so every future AI use case compounds rather than restarts.

Expertise
  • AI strategy and implementation for mid-market companies
  • Corporate strategy, M&A due diligence, opportunity sizing

Outside Tempori

Co-founder of Free Agents, a free AI community teaching fundamentals to operators, founders, and the next generation. Co-run with brother Oskari.

What he believes
"AI is the largest unlock I have seen in my career. It does not replace the people inside a company. It changes what they are capable of when they operate alongside it, not around it. Tempori exists to make sure your people are doing the operating."

Advisor

Oskari Tempakka

Advisor · Tempori  ·  CMO · Sophon
Distribution, operations, and the parts that make a transformation actually stick.

Ten years building distribution and operations inside venture-backed companies, with stops at Google, ProFounders Capital, and Token Terminal, and now leading marketing as CMO at Sophon. The throughline is taking technical products and making them land inside markets, inside customers, and inside the teams that have to use them every day. The same throughline shapes how Tempori engagements close: architecting a transformation is one job; making sure your team owns it on day 84 is another.

Background

Operator with a decade of experience inside venture-backed companies, spanning early-career time at Google, venture work at ProFounders Capital, growth and partnerships at Token Terminal, and a current operating role as CMO at Sophon. Across those roles, the consistent question has been the same: how do you take a technically excellent product and put it inside the workflows of the people it is supposed to serve.

That question is what brings him into Tempori as an advisor. AI implementation projects fail not because the technology is wrong, but because the new capability never lands inside the operating team. Oskari's perspective shapes how every Tempori engagement is designed to close, and how the capability transfers cleanly from us to your people.

Expertise
  • Go-to-market for technical products
  • Distribution, growth, and partnerships at venture scale
  • Marketing and operations inside venture-backed teams
  • Adoption and capability transfer inside operating companies

Why us

We have done the work we are asking you to do.

Every conversation we have with leadership is grounded in something we have already shipped. Strategy work that landed in front of group leadership. AI workflows running in production today. Distribution and operating roles inside venture-backed companies. The team you are talking to has built and run the kind of systems we are now building with you.

Operators, not consultants.
We have built and run AI systems inside operating companies before we ever advised anyone on it. The recommendations come from doing the work, not from reading about it.
Capability stays with you.
By the time we are done, the backbone we built together belongs to your team. No vendor lock-in, no monthly retainer disguised as a partnership. Owning compounds. Renting decays.
Production, not pilots.
Every workflow we have shipped reaches production. Companies do not pay us to build experiments. They pay us to put a layer in place that runs every day after we leave.
The right time is now
