Independent builder shipping AI-powered SaaS end-to-end. Three production products launched in 2025–2026 on Next.js, Anthropic Claude, Stripe and Supabase.
13+ years delivering digital products for Fortune 500 — Amazon/Audible, Citi, Verizon. Founded a top-ranked Costa Rican web agency that ran for over a decade.
End-to-end ownership over the whole stack, picked tools, shipped product. Six principles I keep close — they decide what makes it into production and what doesn't.
Tools chosen by how cleanly they fit together — Next.js, Supabase, Stripe, Claude. The graph matters more than the node.
Code is always in flux. Small movements to production beat big plans on paper. Real users teach faster than roadmaps.
Indie velocity with Fortune 500 rigor — security audits, observability and accessibility on every project, not just the big-budget ones.
A thousand small choices stack into emergent quality. 33 security issues found and fixed in a single pre-launch audit; that's the bar.
What I learned building Atiendo24 made AdPipe faster; AdPipe made Pregnalyze cleaner. Compounding craft, not parallel restarts.
Frontend, backend, AI, payments, auth, deploy, analytics. One engineer, full responsibility, no handoffs to lose context.
The materials I reach for to take an idea from a sketch to a shipped product — chosen for velocity, reliability, and how well they connect to each other.
Three production SaaS products built and launched independently in 2025–2026 — each one a real friction in the world, the constraint that makes the obvious answer fail, and what got shipped.
Small businesses lose customers who message after hours, on weekends, and during peak load. Human staff doesn't scale to 24/7.
Generic chatbots break trust. Off-the-shelf agents can't book real appointments, charge customers, or honor each business's voice and rules.
A multi-tenant WhatsApp AI agent that schedules, charges and answers 24/7 in each business's identity. Pre-launch security audit: 33 issues fixed.
Writing Meta ad copy is slow and repetitive. The gap between strong creative and weak creative is what kills ad budgets.
Generic LLM output is bland — it ignores persuasion frameworks, breaks ad policy, and arrives unstructured for Ads Manager.
Paste a product URL, get 12 ad copy variants across 4 persuasion styles in 30 seconds. Policy-checked, structured, export-ready. Launched on Product Hunt, Feb 2026.
Pregnancy is lived through fear and uncertainty — yet the evidence to answer those fears already exists in published research.
The research is scattered, locked in jargon, and the apps that promise help often harvest the most sensitive health data instead.
Six evidence-based calculators built on 54+ peer-reviewed studies covering 500,000+ pregnancies. Privacy-first — zero storage of sensitive health data.
A decade-plus of building digital products — from Fortune 500 brands to my own indie SaaS. Three chapters, one direction.
Founded Galacttic in 2012. Frontend for Amazon/Audible, Citi and Verizon at PGD.
Velocity, ownership and the choice of what to build belonged to clients. Time to take it back.
