Demos that don't feel like ads

I'm a working developer first. When I demo your product, I'm not an actor pretending to understand the problem. I use these tools to ship apps every day. Hooks land, screen recordings feel real, and the script doesn't read like marketing.

Things I've built

A sample of recent work

Real production apps. Frontend, backend, infra, deploys, all of it. Stack varies by project. The brief stays the same: ship something people actually want to use.

About

Two halves of one job

I'm a developer with 5+ years building web apps in Next.js, React, and TypeScript. Most of my work in the last year has been AI integration: OpenAI and Anthropic APIs, RAG, agents, MCP servers. Most “AI developers” can't actually code. Most engineers who can haven't shipped real LLM features. I do both. I also run a small studio called MintLooks out of Connecticut.

The UGC half started as a side experiment. Most tech demos are made by people who don't actually use the product, so I started recording the tools I already work with every day: Cursor, Supabase, Linear, Vercel. Brands started reaching out. Now I do both, and they reinforce each other.
