Technology. Money. Business. No Gatekeepers.
I figure out how technology makes money.
AI · Fintech · Trading · Automation · Software · Emerging Tech
I build software, test new technology, automate financial systems, study markets, and break down the technology changing how we work and make money.
Right now
What I'm investigating
AI Coding Agents
Can AI agents replace significant portions of a traditional development workflow — end to end, not just autocomplete?
Instant Payments
What actually happens underneath FedNow, Fedwire, ACH and real-time settlement when money moves in seconds?
AI Infrastructure
Who owns the data centers, chips, power and cooling behind the AI boom — and where is the money flowing?
Local LLMs vs APIs
When does running a model on your own hardware beat paying per token — on cost, latency and control?
Market Data Pipelines
Building real-time scanners on top of live market data feeds, and what the plumbing really costs.
Merchant Processing
How payment infrastructure, card networks and processors quietly take a cut of every transaction.
Build in public
What I'm building
Shipping products & experiments, out in the open.
Claude Code Agent Runner
A harness that hands an AI coding agent real build tasks and measures what it can ship end-to-end — with the feedback loops that keep it honest.
Real-Time Market Scanner
A scanner that ingests live market data and surfaces setups as they form — the tool I wished existed off the shelf, built correctness-first.
Fintech Payments Sandbox
A test bench for moving money — Plaid connectivity, ACH vs instant rails side by side, and a clear view of the fees hiding under each one.
