Work

The work

Real systems, running for real organizations.

Some built for clients, some our own products. All of it shipped.

TackleAgentLive

The operating system for a volunteer-run youth football program.

Registration platforms stop at sign-up. TackleAgent runs everything after it: equipment day, evaluations, the draft, practice plans, game-day lineups and the league’s certification paperwork, from a phone at the field, with or without a signal.

  • Talk, don’t type

    A coach speaks a note from the sideline. The app files it by player and by play. No forms.

  • Ask it anything

    Plain-English questions, answered from the team’s own notes and the league rulebook, with sources. Every answer is graded by a person and by a second model.

  • A fair draft

    Every coach picks from the same honest ratings, with league rules checked at each pick, so no one can quietly stack a team.

  • Private by design

    Children’s names never leave the server. The Ai sees jersey numbers only, and every user is invited by name.

TrailLogLive

Troop management for Scout programs and the volunteers running them.

One system in place of three subscriptions and four logins. Backups are restored and checked every night.

SpaceDew on a phone: the Dew Point and the daily brief

SpaceDewLive

The space economy, tracked every day by software that reads, screens, writes and publishes.

A public site that follows the companies taking us off the planet: a morning brief, live quotes, launches, filings and its own reporting desk. Agents collect the sources, screen them, write the brief and publish it to the site, to inboxes and to X on schedule, with an editor able to step in.

Desktop app · WindowsBeta

A writing studio that takes a first-time novelist from a blank page to a finished draft.

It runs entirely on the writer’s own machine and keeps working with the network unplugged. The writer writes; the Ai assists only when asked. The work is never trapped: export it, import it, export it again, and the result is identical to the byte, which a test proves. A phone companion catches ideas and sends them to the desk.

Hopper OpsIn production

Built from scratch: the service management platform behind everything we run.

Hopper Ops is our own build, not a vendor’s tool. We designed it, wrote it and run it, and every system we build lands on it on its first day. It is ITIL practice as software: monitoring and event management, service levels, change enablement, risk, asset and configuration records, and observability for Ai calls, with a briefing in the inbox each morning. Deterministic detectors do the measuring. Language models only write the summary.

Select a screen to enlarge it. Screens are from the live system. Private project names and account details are blurred, and the pages that list exact versions, hosts and credentials are not shown at all.

  • Service level management

    Rolling objectives with error budgets, correctness ranked ahead of availability. A check that cannot measure fails closed: it reports unknown, never pass.

  • Change enablement

    Deploys, dependency, credential and schema changes are detected, not self-reported. Undeclared changes are flagged, and every alert shows what changed before it.

  • Monitoring and event management

    Uptime, errors, host health, backups and certificates in one view. Alerts leave on their own channel, so they survive the outage that email cannot report.

  • Risk, assets and configuration

    A risk register, a software bill of materials with a daily diff, end-of-life tracking, and a credential inventory that maps blast radius without holding a single secret.

  • Ai observability

    Tracing, cost tracking and guardrail counts for model calls, built so that no prompt or completion can be stored. Model retirements are matched against the models our code actually pins.

  • Remediation with guardrails

    Runbooks carry a fixed autonomy tier. Read-only checks run unattended and are audited; anything else shows its preflight, blast radius and rollback first. A tier is never escalated at runtime.
