Products, ventures, and workshops built by the lab
Scale with AI
Custom AI tools wired into your revenue-critical workflows, a structured program that takes your team from zero AI fluency to shipping, and the guardrails that keep speed from becoming recklessness. Harvard MEd. IBM SkillsBuild. Delivered in English and French.
See the offer → AI · EducationABSI
A conversational advisor that helps senior high school students in Ghana identify the one to three university pathways best suited to them, based on their interests, their grades, and their family circumstances. Built in partnership with Alpha Beta Education Centres.
Open product → SaaS · EducationResLife
A housing platform for colleges and boarding schools where one administrator still runs everything from a spreadsheet. ResLife turns that spreadsheet into a shared workspace so students, staff, and deans can all work from the same source of truth.
View product → SaaS · OperationsTopClean+
A small-business operations app that builds accountability into the cash register itself. Every transaction carries a photo, every expense a receipt, every evening a reconciliation. First deployed at a cleaning business in Benin that was quietly losing money it could not account for.
View product → Workshop · AI LiteracyKodjoLive Masterclass
A masterclass, written in French, that walks complete beginners through building and publishing a real website with the help of an AI assistant. Delivered at KodjoLive 2026 for a room of creators and entrepreneurs who had been told, in one way or another, that this kind of work was not for them.
View workshop → Infographic · LineageBlack Belt Lineage
An interactive map of every black belt produced by Tabata Sensei and the schools he has touched. Each belt is a glowing orb that drifts on screen. Click a face to see a name, a year, a country, a story. A way of teaching a dojo's reach without writing a single paragraph.

Who is behind Giovannie Labs, and why the lab exists at all
Giovannie Labs is the work of Emile Giovannie Zounon, an AI practitioner and learning designer based on the East Coast of the United States. He holds a Master's in Education from Harvard and a Bachelor's in Computer Information Systems from Lehman College, CUNY. He built learning programs at IBM SkillsBuild and now trains professionals and organizations to use AI to make money and move faster. He works in English and French.
The lab does two kinds of work. It builds products for people the industry keeps skipping: senior high school students in Ghana choosing between university pathways, a family-run cleaning business in Benin losing money through its own front desk, French-speaking creators who had been told, quietly, that AI was not yet for them. And it runs training that takes working professionals from zero AI fluency to shipping real tools and real revenue in about four weeks.
Most engagements start from a single conversation. If you have a problem that software or AI training can solve, write to the lab.
