About - Slobodan Manić

I'm Slobodan "Sani" Manić. For 15 years, I've focused on one thing: making websites work better for everyone and everything that uses them.

That used to mean speed and usability for humans. Now it also means clarity for AI. Agents like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and autonomous browsing tools are researching, comparing, and taking action on behalf of users. If your site confuses them - unclear structure, missing semantics, ambiguous navigation - they'll struggle to complete tasks or recommend you at all.

I bridge both worlds. I make sites fast and intuitive for people, and clear and navigable for the AI agents working alongside them.

What I can help you with:

  • Technical website optimisation - I take an uncompromising approach: audit every page, component, and asset. Document every issue. Fix them all. Not just the critical ones.

Since 2021, I've hosted the No Hacks podcast, exploring how AI agents are reshaping the web. The show covers what it takes to make websites visible and functional to ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and other AI systems. Because your next million visitors won't be human.

Outside of work, I also run, a lot. It keeps my head clear and the ideas moving.
