I build AI agents that work inside real operations — logistics, finance, management.
Now
- AI agents in production. Assistants that sit inside real workflows rather than next to them. An agent is a first filter, not a god system.
- AI-native software delivery. Small senior teams orchestrating coding agents from spec to merge request, priced on outcomes rather than hours.
- Local-first, user-owned data. Open protocols and CRDTs so people collaborate without handing their knowledge to a platform.
- Personal and company knowledge OS. Calls, inboxes and notes turned into tasks, decisions and a living wiki.
- Pragmatic platform engineering. Small reproducible fleets, and modernising legacy systems in logistics and fintech.
Twelvedevs
A product engineering company built around long-term technology partnerships: dedicated product teams, fast SWAT teams for startups, and R&D that turns ideas into working prototypes. Logistics is our main vertical — transportation management, dock scheduling, last-mile delivery, passenger transport.
Recent builds
- AI dispatcher for a US last-mile delivery company. Works alongside human dispatchers on daily operations. Grown step by step: checklists first, then a chat agent, metrics and full tracing.
- Board assistant that tracks commitments from calls. Listens to management meetings in Microsoft Teams and keeps track of who promised what, and by when.
- AI financial coach for a bank. Runs entirely on local models, so customer data never leaves the bank’s perimeter.

What I believe
- Pragmatic over perfect. The best is the enemy of the good: I’d rather ship a working solution today than a perfect one never.
- Own your data. Local-first and offline-first: software should keep working without the cloud, and your knowledge should stay yours.
- Automate everything worth automating. AI agents are absurdly useful right now — and I’m possessed.
- Be prepared for the future. Teams grow into platforms; expertise grows into capital.
