Tom Proctor

Senior Content Strategist · AI Workflow Designer · Web Production & Archive Systems

I turn generative AI into dependable production work, backed by two decades of content craft.

Work is play. I build AI workflows, content systems, and structured archives that hold up in production. The throughline across everything is craft: clear structure, verifiable output, and quality that survives contact with the real world.

Selected Work

Two case studies

2200 Studios — Record Plant History & Archive

Current · Live

Building a historic site and archive from scratch for the legendary Record Plant studio in Sausalito. The role spans journalistic research and writing, photography, web design, data governance, and quality, all in one. Built mostly on Notion, Claude, and Airtable.

Seven-table relational Airtable archive of 80+ historic radio broadcasts.
Claude-over-MCP pipeline reconciling every entry against nine public archives, with logged provenance.
56 broadcasts verified to source recordings, 24 conflicts isolated for expert review.
Defined a reusable model for AI-assisted archival reconciliation.
