From the flight deck.
Thinking on AI, operations, and building for human life.
Why AI implementation fails — and what we do differently
Most AI implementations fail because companies buy tools before mapping workflows. JUMBOJET works differently — we find the signal first, then build the system. Explore the 3 failure modes and how to avoid them.
The Slaypay thesis — why payments are the product
In fitness, the payment rail is where studios lose margin and trust. Slaypay is built on Stripe Connect Custom — flat 3.25% across all card types, 1.25% ACH. No surprises. Why we made payments the centerpiece of Bodyslay.
On building alone — the operator model
One operator. Four products. Zero full-time employees. This is what the agentic build model actually looks like from the inside — the rhythm, the tradeoffs, and why solitude is a competitive advantage.
What digital forensics taught us about trust
ForensAI was built for people who need evidence — not lawyers, not enterprises. The hardest product decision: making something powerful enough to hold up in court, simple enough for someone in crisis to use alone.
Vertical vs. horizontal AI — where the money actually is
Horizontal AI tools (ChatGPT, Copilot) commoditize fast. Vertical AI products that go deep into a specific market build real moats. The JUMBOJET thesis on why we only fly specific routes.
The agentic build system — how we ship so fast
From idea to App Store in 3 weeks. From concept to live SaaS in a weekend. The exact system — Claude for strategy, Cursor for execution, Supabase + Railway for infrastructure — that makes JUMBOJET possible.
