Occasional posts on what I’m learning — from product thinking to agentic AI, tool experimentation to ethical questions.

This is a place to share ideas in motion, not finished takes.

🌱 Launchling

Just launched: Launchling — a free tool to help non-technical founders start with clarity and confidence.

• How I Used AI Pair Programming to Build a Robust Evaluation System (Without Vibe Coding)

How I used ChatGPT and Cursor not just as coding tools, but as junior engineering collaborators to build a robust, testable, and maintainable evaluation system for Launchling. This post explains how I avoided the pitfalls of “vibe coding” by combining the speed of AI with solid engineering practices like schema validation, canonical codes, CI, and a synthetic testing pipeline.

• Satirical Startups & French Pirate Founders: How Launchling Handles Absurdity by Design

I deliberately tried to break Launchling using bizarre and satirical prompts, from nihilist philosophers to influencer-hunting billionaires. This post breaks down how I designed the system to handle weirdness with grace, and why it matters for real-world users too.

• From MVP to Momentum: A Week of Big Leaps for Launchling

This week was all about stability, polish, and trust. I rebuilt Launchling’s form UX, fixed long-standing email issues, added test coverage, and launched a new Risk Mapper feature.

• From TinyLaunch to Launchling

Why I rebranded my MVP

• From Side Project to Stress Test: Using AI to Evaluate TinyLaunch

How I built an AI evaluator to audit TinyLaunch’s output — and used it to uncover what’s working, what’s missing, and where to improve next.

• Post-Launch Polish: What I’ve Been Improving on TinyLaunch Real user feedback turned MVP glitches into targeted UX wins — from accordion overhauls to test coverage and mobile-first design.
• TinyLaunch Is Launched: From Framer to Fully-Coded Product

A behind-the-scenes look at how I shipped TinyLaunch, what I prioritised, and why I didn’t wait for perfect before going live.

• TinyLaunch Update: From Framer MVP to Full React Build — Lessons, Challenges & Next Steps

What changed as I rebuilt the MVP from Framer to React — including design tradeoffs, tool upgrades, and technical learnings.

• Why I Built TinyLaunch – Helping Tiny Ideas Take Flight

The origin story: why I created TinyLaunch, who it’s for, and how it helps early-stage founders get started — one small step at a time.

Building a portfolio website

• Trying and failing to send emails from my domain

An honest account of email DNS chaos — SPF, DKIM, and the rabbit hole of trying to make “@mydomain” actually send mail.

• Quick write up on how I wrote this site using Notion + Super.so

A fast, flexible setup for getting a personal site live — using Notion for content and Super.so for styling, routing, and speed.

Tooling and Agentic AI Experiments

• The Role of AI in Product-Building

What I learned building an MVP using AI coding tools like Cursor: where they accelerate, where they fail, and what this means for engineering, UX, and product management. With lessons from real incidents and leading voices like Marty Cagan and Anthropic’s team, this post explores my thoughts on how the Product Trio must evolve to guide teams in an AI-augmented world.

Further posts on LLM agents, custom workflows, debugging, practical workflows, and where prompt engineering meets product thinking — coming soon.
