01 — Work

Selected work

Seven shipped products and one spec. Each opens to the problem, the decisions, the trade-offs and the result.

02 — Approach

How I decide what to build

Three decisions about where AI belongs, and where something simpler does the job.

03 — Lab · Stranger Test

Would a stranger understand your product?

A free tool for founders, PMs and marketers. Paste the first line people read about your product. An AI reads it like someone who has never heard of you, tells you what they would think it is, and suggests a clearer line. Use it before you launch a page, an app-store listing or a pitch.

1Paste your headline or one-line pitch
2Optionally, say what it really does
3See what a stranger understood, and a clearer version
