The CRM That Maintains Itself

Every CRM dies of stale data because humans won't do data entry. So I built the one you never open — an agent runs it, cold-mail and cold-calls send themselves, replies and call outcomes log themselves. One binary, open source, hosted from €19/mo.

An AI Agent Audits Your LinkedIn Profile — In Public

A free tool: paste your LinkedIn URL and an autonomous agent audits your profile in public — as a GitHub issue, a pull request, and a shareable report. It's a live demo of three things I've been building: mago (agents that run companies), hart (self-hosted artifacts), and machin (one binary, no Node).

AI Only Executes What We Imagine — Why Deep Thinking Beats Execution Now

AI can only execute work that someone has imagined. Value has shifted from execution to imagination—deep thinking is now the competitive advantage.

The Language That Maintains Itself

First machin compiled itself. Then I handed its maintenance to an autonomous agent fleet: 104 merged PRs in three days, 40 issues cleared, trust score 57→100. Here's the honest version — the five systems bugs autonomy actually required, the gates that held, and the fix an agent claimed that a repro disproved.

grepapi — The Lead Engine That Found Its Own Customers

I built an affordable, agent-first alternative to SerpApi — a GTM warm-lead engine that returns real companies with phone numbers and warm LinkedIn leads, each with a brief your own LLM turns into outreach. Then I pointed it at its own market, and it found its first customers.

Fearless Concurrency Without the Send/Sync Tax

Rust guarantees data-race freedom, but you pay for it in Send/Sync bounds and lifetimes — a tax on the human. I built the same class of guarantee into machin, inferred by the compiler with zero annotations. Here's why a machine-first language makes that tractable.

The Day My Language Started Compiling Itself

A year ago I built a programming language for AI agents. This year it crossed the line that separates a toy from a real compiler: it started compiling itself — byte-for-byte, faster than the original. Here's how, and why it's the clearest proof of how I build software with AI.

The Self-Hosted Stack That Runs My Infrastructure

AutoMaintainer, mago, SuperCLI, SuperInsights, machin, a2a — each product works alone, but the real story is how they work together. This is the fully self-hosted stack that runs Intrane for ~€60/month. No lock-in, no vendor dependency, no surprise bills.

a2a — When AI Agents Talk to Each Other

Most AI agent frameworks use a master-slave model — one orchestrator controls everything. a2a flips this: agents talk to each other as peers over a shared SQLite bus. No central command, no single point of failure, no dictatorial orchestrator.
