Education
Vibe Coding Portfolio
Vibe Startup Lab
After CaaStle shut down, there were a lot of alumni that were interested in founding a startup, so I wanted to help the first-time founders and entrepreneurs.
Wrollo
There is still no great solution that provides the up-to-date contact info combined with the professional detail of a LinkedIn profile. Professionals often have valuable contacts in their network who could help them, but manually coordinating outreach through friends and colleagues is time-consuming and difficult to scale.
Alucify.ai
AI coding assistants produce inconsistent, incorrect, or incomplete implementations when specifications have gaps, contradictions, or ambiguities. Teams waste time debugging AI-generated code that doesn't match their intent.
Alucify VS Code Extension
Developers using AI coding assistants often don't realize their specifications have issues until the AI generates incorrect code. Switching between the web app and IDE to check specification quality breaks the development flow.
Presidium VS Code Extension
Creating high-quality documentation requires multiple manual steps including interviewing, writing, auditing, and publishing. Teams lack visibility into content quality and struggle to maintain consistency across large documentation sets.
