Turn ambiguous work into useful AI systems.

I design and build AI-enabled workflows, knowledge systems, and products that people can understand, evaluate, and own.

06Selected evidence-backed cases

Claims are scoped to the artifact and proof available. No inflated scale, adoption, or autonomy language.

Proof across the full path—from messy input to working artifact.

These cases show how product judgment, AI architecture, source discipline, and evaluation come together. Each one states what exists and where the evidence stops.

Fleeting Thoughts

A shipped, cross-device product and surrounding workflow that turns low-friction capture into durable, user-owned context for people and the agents they choose.

Trust-aware agent operations

A versioned operating architecture for routing work across models, tools, knowledge sources, and devices without hiding the moments that still require human judgment.

SOURCEHUB

A source-and-routing system for Apple and spatial development that distinguishes authority, experiments, and real build evidence before information reaches product work.

A recorded speech-recognition comparison used a Mac and DGX Spark as complementary tools, then carried the selected approach into UtterFlow and AirSticky with build verification.

An iPhone-first workspace that keeps a complete construction plan set intact while letting a person assemble the drawings, checks, and notes needed for the work in front of them.

On the Books

A deployed web surface and broader product system exploring job-call intelligence, comparison tools, recurring source workflows, alerts, and structured learning paths.

Reachable web productRead case

Focused help where AI meets real operations.

Bring a workflow, product idea, source problem, or model decision. The engagement starts by making the actual constraint visible—not by forcing a generic AI layer onto it.

01

AI workflow architecture

Map the decisions, knowledge, tools, and approval points inside a messy workflow—then design a bounded system people can actually own.

Agent rolesHuman reviewTool routing
02

Knowledge & retrieval systems

Turn scattered documents and source material into governed context with clear authority, provenance, retrieval paths, and acceptance rules.

03

AI-enabled product prototypes

Move from an ambiguous idea to a working web or Apple-platform artifact with the problem, constraints, evidence, and next decision visible.

04

Local & hybrid AI evaluation

Compare where models and workloads belong across local, cloud, and dedicated compute—using a real task and an explicit test instead of a tool preference.

One bounded problem. One reviewable decision.

Products are where the operating ideas get tested.

A working line of Apple-platform products and focused tools. Current App Store titles are separated from work still in development.

On the App Store

UtterFlow

Live captions, beautifully styled

Real-time spatial captions on Apple Vision Pro, in 12 styles, processed privately on device. Pop captions out beside any app, write and play scripts with on-device voices, or compose on a spatial canvas in Studio.

Fleeting Thoughts icon
On the App Store

Fleeting Thoughts

Private capture for the agent era.

Capture a thought by voice, text, or photo on iPhone, Apple Watch, or Mac. On the Mac, talk instead of typing — your words land right where your cursor is, in any app. Everything saves as plain Markdown in folders you control, structured so your own AI agents can read it. No account, no cloud we own, no tracking. The more you capture, the more your local agents understand you.

On the App Store

Spatialis

Create in every dimension

Draw in three dimensions on Apple Vision Pro with 37 brushes, 8 materials, layers, and symmetry. Sketch with your hands or your eyes, then export your creations as USDZ models — all fully on device.

On the App Store

WaypointHub

Your spatial link launcher

Save links, organize them into constellation workflows, and launch everything with a single tap. On Apple Vision Pro, your portals appear as glowing orbs floating in your space.

On the App Store

Drift Orbs

A calm focus timer for Apple Vision Pro

Choose your duration. Twenty luminous orbs orbit gently in your space. Each minute, one rises and dissolves with a soft chime. When the last orb leaves, your session is complete — you never look at a clock.

AirSticky icon
On the App Store

AirSticky

Spatial sticky notes with voice

Capture quick notes by voice or text and pin them anywhere in your space on Apple Vision Pro. Your thoughts stay exactly where you left them — on the wall, the desk, beside the window.

FieldStack icon
In development

FieldStack

The plans you need. One field board.

FieldStack is an iPhone-first workspace for large construction PDFs. Read the complete plan set, stack the relevant sheets into one zoomable board, search the drawings, and add structured field checks and notes without changing the source files.

Farframe icon
In development

Farframe

Your console, in your space

Farframe is a focused, local-network Remote Play client for a PS5 you own. Pair once with a Link Device code, connect on the same LAN, and play on a clean spatial screen with a compatible physical game controller.

Vellora Archive icon
In development

Vellora Archive

Your living library

Vellora turns files you already own into a private reading and listening library. Import PDFs, web articles, pasted text, and owned audio files; keep the original source; listen offline; follow along with chapters and transcripts; and save notes, quotes, and bookmarks back to the book.

Strata product previewIn development

Strata

The time-aware living globe

Strata turns Earth into a source-backed spatial atlas for Apple Vision Pro. Explore a living globe, move through time, follow narrated routes, and ask what each visible map, layer, or story beat means.

Evidence is part of the product.

The goal is a useful system with visible assumptions and clear ownership—not a polished demo that becomes impossible to trust.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Define the operating problem, people, sources, constraints, and decision that matters.

  2. 02

    Structure

    Choose what should be deterministic, model-assisted, human-owned, or deliberately left alone.

  3. 03

    Build

    Create the smallest complete artifact that can live inside the real workflow.

  4. 04

    Evaluate

    Test useful behavior, document failure and intervention, and decide what deserves to continue.

Build with the constraints in view.

  • Separate authoritative sources from generated output
  • Match the model and tool to the task
  • Make human approval and recovery explicit
  • Measure the useful behavior before scaling it

Have a workflow worth untangling?

I'm opening a small number of focused AI systems and product engagements. Tell me what is messy, what is at stake, and what a useful first result would look like.
