I build the systems
behind the business.

AI, automation, and software that keeps things moving.

Out in the world

Infra Agent

Uptime monitoring for websites, APIs, and everything behind them.

Behind the scenes

A few systems behind my businesses. Company names and commercial details stay private.

End-to-end AI sales engine

High-ticket sales, from conversation to offer to follow-up. Built to run the process, not just write the next reply.

The problem

High-ticket sales don't happen in a single message. They depend on context, timing, the right offer, and knowing when to follow up. We built a system that connects those decisions to action.

What we built

An end-to-end engine that reads conversation history, selects from real offers and prices, sends authorized messages and offers, and schedules the next move. It runs routine sales conversations without per-message approval, with explicit exceptions handed to a human.

More than a prompt

The model makes the decision. The system carries it through: offer selection, delivery, follow-up timing, and a record of what actually happened. Conversation, commercial logic, and execution operate as one connected workflow.

The engineering underneath

Deciding and sending are separate steps. Before an action goes out, the system checks its permissions, fresh conversation state, the selected offer, and its price. Each conversation is processed in order, with delivery receipts and an operational history. An uncertain delivery is recorded as uncertain, so it isn't blindly sent twice.

How we test it

A separate replay environment evaluates decisions without sending live messages. Versioned test cases compare candidate releases against a baseline, and release checks flag regressions before rollout. Each decision keeps the version and input context that produced it.

The business operating layer

People, workflows, finances, and reporting in one internal platform.

The problem

Running a business means connecting work across departments: who's responsible, what's happening, and how it ties back to the numbers.

What we built

A custom operations platform bringing together account records, team management, training roadmaps, financial tracking, shared files, and analytics.

The engineering underneath

Teams and departments have role-based access. Shared records connect the workflows, while background processing handles work outside the browser. Typed APIs connect the interface to the database, with object storage for shared files.

Real-time AI & media

Messaging, generated media, access controls, and usage accounting in one platform.

The problem

AI generation takes time. Conversations need live updates. Media access and usage records need to stay consistent across both.

What we built

A platform combining real-time conversations, AI responses, image and video generation, media libraries, and a credit-based usage ledger.

The engineering underneath

Generation runs in the background while the interface shows progress. Successful results connect to stored media and usage records. Private media uses signed access, conversation reads are scoped to the user, and balance changes have a transaction history.

Repository change intelligence

History rewrites, risky changes, and dependency signals turned into actionable alerts.

The problem

A routine code push and a destructive history rewrite can look similar at a glance. Teams need enough context to know which changes deserve attention.

What we built

A GitHub integration that watches repository events, compares commit history, checks selected code and dependency changes, and sends severity-based alerts to the team.

The engineering underneath

Related events are correlated over time, including branch deletion followed by recreation. Duplicate alerts are suppressed, but new evidence can trigger a fresh warning. Delivery state is recorded only after an alert is accepted. The scope is targeted change monitoring, not a claim to catch every security issue.

Automated discovery & review

A web discovery pipeline that turns noisy results into evidence-backed review tasks.

The problem

Finding a page is only the start. Results need to be checked for relevance, corroborated, and organized into work that someone can act on.

What we built

A background pipeline for discovering candidate pages, classifying them, scoring evidence, and routing findings into review and follow-up tasks.

The engineering underneath

Inexpensive checks run before deeper page extraction. Network-heavy work has bounded concurrency, and each decision records the evidence used at the time. Organization context travels with each job; findings and follow-up work remain distinct stages.
