Product Builder · Sole Founder · System Designer
Final-year CS student at Cardiff University. I design and ship AI-powered systems end-to-end — from product vision and architecture through to deployment and real users. Currently running two live products.
Live products I've designed, architected, and shipped solo — from first commit to real users.
AI-Powered Travel Recommendation Engine
Finds obscure, authentic places tourists and guidebooks don't know about — delivered via Telegram, Discord, and web. Born at the Cerebral Valley "Zero to Agent" Hackathon (Google DeepMind + Vercel), then redesigned and expanded into a full multi-platform product.
6 AI personas — Local, Plot Twist, Foodie, Hangover, Bougie, Budget — each sees the city through a different lens and surfaces different kinds of places. "Council Mode" pits multiple personas against each other in a multi-round debate to find the perfect spot.
Every recommendation is verified as real and currently open — no hallucinated places. The system searches in the city's own language to surface what locals actually discuss, and adjusts for weather in real time. Repeated queries force deeper exploration, never recycling the same picks.
AI-Powered Social Matching Platform
A social matching platform for Gen Z that rejects the swipe model entirely. Instead of bios and selfies, users play through AI-generated social simulations — reacting instinctively to moments that reveal who they really are. The system learns your personality over time and matches you based on genuine behavioural compatibility. Currently in beta with users signing up.
People reveal who they really are through instinctive reactions to social moments, not through self-reported bios. The core interaction — the "Dojo" — is an AI simulation designed around this insight. Abstract psychological dimensions are embedded in naturalistic scenarios; users never see the underlying model.
Your identity isn't a static profile — it's a living model that evolves with every interaction. Traits, values, interests, and vices exist on weighted spectra that decay over time, so the system always reflects who you are now, not who you were months ago.
Matching goes beyond surface-level interests. A multi-stage algorithm weighs shared values and complementary personality traits using research-backed heuristics — including attachment theory — to find people who are genuinely compatible, not just similar.
Profiles unlock progressively based on conversation quality ("Fog of War"), turning discovery into a game. A credit economy ties real AI costs to user-facing energy, creating a natural usage cadence. Friendship matching groups people by social chemistry, not just pairwise compatibility.
