We rebuilt a legacy .NET application in a week. That normally takes months.
We took on a client whose .NET and React stack was too outdated to upgrade. Couldn't update it, couldn't patch it. Only option was full rewrite.

A procurement lead evaluated vendors in 12 minutes. Better than the framework her team spent weeks researching. She couldn't explain her process. She just "knew."

Two AI agents reviewed the same proposal. They gave me identical answers. That's when I realized I'd built it wrong.

I use AI tools constantly. Voice memos, dictation, coding assistants, research interfaces. They're embedded in how I work. They also break constantly. Not occasionally. Multiple times an hour.

We can give an AI operator access to every campaign we’ve ever run, every deal that closed, every email that converted. That’s solved. RAG works. Vector stores work.
But that’s not learning. That’s just having really good notes.

Everyone’s arguing about whether AI will replace jobs. Can you build a company where AI runs accounting, marketing, HR, compliance, and operations — and they coordinate without humans routing between them?
Not AI that writes better emails. AI that actually runs the company.

I watched Claude try to identify what someone was doing in a distant TV shot. It guessed fishing, then painting. I saw it immediately: whittling by a lake.

AI argues with my ideas. Catches what I miss when I'm too close to the work. Instead of asking for answers, I ask for arguments.
Here's how it works: I give AI a problem and have it create personas who debate it. Three to five different perspectives who have to actually work through the thing.
