I am an Italian tech founder and software engineer, currently living in Lisbon. I love building products that people use every day.
Currently, I am working on Typefully, an AI-powered writing app for social media with hundreds of thousands of users worldwide.
In the past I also worked on various other projects:
- Mailbrew - Personal email digests (excited!)
- Unreadit - Semi-automated newsletters based on Reddit
- Boxy Suite - Expanded Boxy into a suite with subscription
- Boxy - Mac web wrapper for Gmail Inbox
- Libretto - Grades tracking app
I have a background in engineering and computer science and was employee number 30 at Bending Spoons, before leaving to do my own startups.
Writing
We kicked off a little internal challenge at Typefully prompted by @rajatkapoor trying to post every day for 1 year (excluding weekends)! So far, so good! Hope to get as far as Huevo!
We'll be hiring some new software engineers in 2026 and it's crazy to think how much has changed since the last time we hired, 1.5 years ago. What does a modern interview process even look like now? Take-home assignments? AI can solve them. Live coding? Doesn't reveal much. How are forward-looking companies handling it?
Claude code can work with Reminders and enrich your lists with useful metadata using Web Search. Before doing this the list below was just movie/shows titles full of typos. Link to the skill in next tweet. https://gist.github.com/frankdilo/b596e8da7fe89582d0c5dc9aaaddcd48
