I don’t talk
about AI. I build
with it.

Agentic workflows, LLM orchestration, and production autonomous systems. I architect the tools that think and act — not just the interfaces that pretend to. This page is a record of what I’ve built and what I’m currently thinking about.

§ 00 · Premise

Most of what passes for AI strategy is theater. The credible work happens when someone is actually shipping, breaking things in production, and pressure-testing the abstractions against real users.

§ 01 · Featured Work / 2024 — 2026

Production systems, all built with AI.

Five things I built and use. Not concepts, not pilots — running code with real users or a single very demanding one (me).

/01

AI Industry Intelligence OS

Multi-agent / Continuous monitoring

An OpenClaw-based system that watches the AI industry around the clock — funding rounds, product launches, partnership signals, talent migration. Pulls from a wide source set and synthesizes into briefs.

/02

Managed Services Intelligence

Competitive intelligence

Aggregates analyst reports, vendor announcements, and market signals across the managed-services landscape. Replaces the “read fifty newsletters a day” tax with a single morning brief.

/03

Second Brain

Personal OS — revenue, journal, docs

One dashboard for revenue goals, journal entries, concept docs, daily actions, and health metrics. Rebuilt twice — once from a filesystem wipe.

DayCode

Consumer — decode the energy of any date

Years of numerology study — Pythagorean and Chinese systems — distilled into a small consumer app. Live on getdaycode.com.

/05

UGC Brand Signal Dashboard

B2B signal detection

Scrapes job posts, ad spend, and social activity to identify brands actively running UGC campaigns. Surfaces decision-makers — including LinkedIn profiles — for direct outreach.

§ 02 · Thinking

Notes from the workshop.

Long-form pieces written while building, not after the fact. Updated when something is worth saying — never on a content calendar.

Essay April 2026

What I Learned About OpenClaw

§ 03 · Field Notes

Thinking out loud, today.

A small log I keep open while building. One-liners, ratios, things I want to remember for later.

The hard part of agent design isn’t the agent. It’s the boundary.

If your eval set fits on one screen, you don’t have an eval set.

Most “AI strategy” decks would be improved by a single shipped prototype.

Latency is a feature. So is silence.
