Production AI web apps & autonomous agents.

Full-stack builds, shipped and deployed — with the unglamorous parts done right: typed APIs, row-level security, signed webhooks, server-side keys, and agents that are evaluated and gated, not vibes.

Next.js · TypeScript · Supabase/Postgres · Stripe · Claude (tool use) · RAG · Vercel / Render

How the agents are actually built

The hard part of AI isn't generating text — it's doing real work safely. In practice, that's:

Tool-use loop

Claude tool use over your real functions/APIs — observe → plan → call tools → continue. Read-and-propose by default; it never publishes or spends on its own.

Critic + human-in-the-loop

A second agent vets each action against your rules; everything lands in an approval queue. Nothing ships without your cue.

Eval harness

Outputs scored against a written contract, CI-gateable — so a prompt or model change can't silently regress. Verified, not hoped.

Safety rails

Kill switch, budget caps, dry-run, full audit log, runaway-step bounds. The boring guarantees that make it safe to run.

Secure full-stack

Supabase RLS, server-side keys, rate-limited serverless routes, Stripe Checkout + signed idempotent webhooks. Auth + entitlements wired correctly.

RAG done right

Chunk-level retrieval with citation verification — grounded answers from your real source, not hallucinated ones.
