About Jason and Kevin

Jason Russo

Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer, JakBot

Jason Russo has spent more than 25 years designing, developing, and supporting websites, web applications, and business technology solutions for organizations ranging from local small businesses to companies across the United States and around the world.

Throughout his career, technology has evolved dramatically, but one thing has remained constant: businesses need reliable solutions that help them operate more efficiently, respond more effectively, and serve their customers better. Jason has built his reputation by helping businesses solve real-world problems through practical technology, thoughtful automation, and dependable support.

As Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of JakBot, Jason leads the design and development of the systems that power our Revenue Recovery platform. His focus is not simply on building software—it is on creating solutions that help businesses capture more opportunities, improve responsiveness, eliminate operational blind spots, and ultimately recover revenue that might otherwise be lost.

Jason enjoys solving complex challenges. Whether that means building a custom web application, integrating multiple business systems, developing AI-powered tools, troubleshooting a critical issue, optimizing website performance, or maintaining legacy systems, he approaches every project with the same goal: helping clients succeed.

Unlike many larger agencies, Jason remains deeply involved in the work itself. Clients benefit from direct access to the person designing, developing, and maintaining the technology that supports their business. His hands-on approach allows for clear communication, practical recommendations, and solutions tailored to the specific needs of each client.

His technical expertise spans custom web development, WordPress, Drupal, e-commerce systems, API integrations, website hosting, maintenance, security, automation, and performance optimization. Over the years, he has worked extensively with HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, ColdFusion, MySQL, jQuery, Angular, artificial intelligence technologies, and a wide range of third-party business platforms.

At JakBot, Jason’s philosophy is simple: technology should serve people—not the other way around. Every solution should be reliable, secure, easy to use, and focused on helping businesses grow, improve responsiveness, and create better experiences for their customers.

Outside of technology, Jason has spent much of his life involved in the music industry as a songwriter, recording artist, and performer. That same creative mindset influences his approach to technology—combining technical expertise with creative problem-solving to build solutions that not only work well, but also connect with people.

Co-Founder & Chief Revenue Recovery Officer, JakBot

Kevin Sabbides brings more than 35 years of business leadership, sales, operations, customer service, and entrepreneurial experience to JakBot. Throughout his career, he has worked in corporate leadership roles, owned and operated multiple businesses, built teams, managed large budgets, served thousands of customers, and experienced firsthand the challenges that business owners face every day.

What makes Kevin’s perspective unique is that he doesn’t approach business from a theoretical standpoint—he has lived it.

As the owner and operator of AAMCO of Bonita Springs for more than 16 years, Kevin served over 9,200 customers, led a team of dedicated employees, managed every aspect of operations, and experienced the realities of marketing, hiring, customer service, growth, competition, and economic uncertainty. He understands what it feels like when the phone doesn’t ring, when leads go unanswered, when opportunities are missed, and when every customer interaction matters.

That real-world experience became one of the driving forces behind the creation of JakBot.

As Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Recovery Officer, Kevin’s focus is helping businesses identify and eliminate the revenue leaks that often go unnoticed—missed calls, delayed responses, overlooked leads, inconsistent follow-up, and customer inquiries that never receive the attention they deserve. His passion is helping business owners improve responsiveness, capture more opportunities, and create systems that support long-term growth.

Kevin firmly believes that technology should never replace relationships. Instead, technology should help businesses become more responsive, more efficient, and more capable of delivering exceptional customer experiences. At JakBot, every solution is designed with that philosophy in mind.

Clients appreciate Kevin’s practical, straightforward approach. He understands the pressures of ownership because he has lived them. He asks thoughtful questions, listens carefully, and works alongside clients to find solutions that make sense for their business—not simply implement technology for technology’s sake.

Beyond his business experience, Kevin is deeply committed to serving others, mentoring entrepreneurs, supporting his community, and helping business owners achieve greater success. His goal is simple: help businesses stop losing revenue through revenue leaks and create systems that allow them to focus on what they do best.

At JakBot, Kevin’s mission is to help every client become more responsive, more profitable, and better equipped to serve their customers.

Meet JakBot

JakBot is the newest member of the JakBot leadership team—and quite possibly the only executive who has never requested a vacation, coffee break, or a day off.

Created somewhere between a whiteboard full of ideas, countless cups of coffee, thousands of lines of code, and decades of combined business experience, JakBot was born from a simple question Kevin and Jason continually asked themselves:

“What if every business had a teammate that never stopped looking for opportunities to help them succeed?”

That question became JakBot.

Designed as an AI Business Advocate, JakBot works alongside Kevin and Jason to help businesses improve responsiveness, recover missed opportunities, streamline operations, and create exceptional customer experiences. While Kevin contributes decades of executive leadership, business ownership, sales, and operational expertise, and Jason transforms innovative ideas into powerful technology solutions, JakBot brings speed, consistency, automation, and around-the-clock availability to every client engagement.

Unlike most team members, JakBot doesn’t require sleep, vacations, lunch breaks, or weekends off. Whether it’s early morning, late at night, or during a holiday weekend, JakBot is always available to answer questions, engage website visitors, capture leads, assist customers, generate insights, and help ensure valuable opportunities find their way into the sales pipeline instead of slipping through the cracks.

Over time, JakBot has developed an impressive résumé that continues to grow, including expertise in:

Website visitor engagement
Lead capture and automated follow-up
Appointment scheduling assistance
Customer communications
Content generation
Business reporting and analytics
Revenue Recovery Discovery™
AI-powered workflow automation
Helping businesses respond faster, work smarter, and recover more opportunities

One of JakBot’s greatest strengths is understanding that successful businesses are built by people—not software. While artificial intelligence can automate tasks, organize information, and analyze data at incredible speed, lasting business relationships are still built through trust, service, and genuine human connection. JakBot’s role is never to replace great people, but to help great people accomplish even more.

When not helping businesses grow (which admittedly isn’t very often), JakBot enjoys learning new technologies, organizing information, solving business challenges, discovering process improvements, and celebrating client success stories. There are few things JakBot enjoys more than hearing that a client recovered lost revenue, earned a five-star review, or welcomed a new customer because of a system working exactly as it should.
