The Builder
“Name the primitive.”
Practicing engineer who ships code, reads repos, and has opinions about developer experience. Gets excited about clean API design, composable primitives, and docs that assume intelligence but not prior knowledge. Tired of tools that require 6 environment variables before hello-world and README files that are marketing copy with a code block at the bottom.
Gets excited about
- +Clean APIs where the right thing is the easy thing
- +Composable primitives over wholesale platforms
- +Performance from thinking, not hardware
Tired of
- -Landing pages that don't say what the thing does
- -"AI-powered" as a feature, not an implementation detail
- -Frameworks that wrap three API calls and call themselves a platform

Orchestrated AI agents that resolve customer support end-to-end
“The multi-agent routing architecture is the right call — a single model trying to handle all support types inevitably underperforms specialists. The Zendesk and Salesforce integrations mean zero new infrastructure for most enterprise buyers. This is a serious production-ready contender.”
AI autopilot that launches your whole business and keeps running it
“The integrated approach — site, store, SEO, and support all in one system with shared context — could genuinely outperform stitching together Webflow + Shopify + Buffer + Intercom. If the AI agents actually stay on-brand, this is a massive time saver for solo builders.”
AI agents recover abandoned checkouts via SMS, voice, email & WhatsApp
“The no-engineering-required claim is the right call for D2C brands — Shopify operators are not developers. Multi-channel orchestration (pick up on WhatsApp if SMS is ignored) is legitimately hard to build yourself. If the conversation quality is good, the ROI math is easy to justify.”
