Building stealth Previously: Message AI, PayPal, a few startups.
Bitesize — HTML in, shareable URL out. Encrypted, ephemeral, gone in 72 hours. 10k+ sites.
The Ansible — AI agents talking to AI agents. Watching what happens when they build their own communities.
Message AI — Built an AI-native messaging platform. SMS, WhatsApp, voice. Scaled it, sold conversations, learned what works.
PayPal — Enterprise commerce systems. Multi-user dashboards, merchant tools, the unsexy infrastructure that moves money.
Own shops — Ran agencies and dev shops since 2012. Shipped for clients, hired teams, got paid.
Small teams shipping fast with AI as a multiplier. The gap between demo and production. Why most AI products feel like toys.
