I'm a repeat founder and product builder.
I'm working on AI apps since before the ChatGPT era.
I don't make models. I build the software systems around them, so they can make a real difference for people in the field.
Experimenting at the intersection of design × app development × AI-powered tools. It started as a vibe-coding app (before ChatGPT launched), then became a search for an approach better suited to designers and developers in the field. I call it rail-coding.
Its main output is Layouts.dev — pure software that outputs complete Next.js and Expo projects from a simple DSL: intuitive enough for designers to use in place of Figma, and text-based so AI agents can easily play with it.
A company focused on giving agents more qualitative tools, with better environment boundaries and fewer humans in the loop. People have been making LLMs use tools since 2021, yet the industry is very slow at providing the tools that will unleash the power of AI agents — so much that, five years later, I think model intelligence is no longer the bottleneck. Tools and harnesses are.
A company I founded to redesign file storage from first principles. 6th biggest Kickstarter tech campaign of 2013. Gone now — this is the recollection.
