I've been building apps for 30 years, and AI-based things for over a decade - including one of the first open-source, cross-platform chatbot assistants, years before ChatGPT existed. For the last four years, I've created AI-powered reasoning systems for clients in intelligence, HR, and high-risk decision-making. The tech was fascinating. The problems were hard and fun to solve. And the things I made blew my mind, made me proud, and scared me, all at the same time.
When I stepped back, I saw that what I was making helped them, not us - so I quit.
And I started building tools for the rest of us. Real things that solved real problems for real people, instead of VC investors, tech bros, or influencers.
I sell my stuff for about the price of a coffee, based on my actual expenses, running things in a way your grandparents would have recognized. No subscriptions. No data mining. Just real things for a fair price - how the world should work.
If that sounds like your jam, here's what I'm making now.
More coming soon. I have a lot of napkins.
