Building autonomous
systems.
Compounding time.

I left a 15-year tech career to engineer income that grows without trading more hours. Now I build with AI, acquire cash-flowing assets, and document the entire process.

The Thesis

Time is the only non-renewable asset.

Systems compound. Effort decays. Everything I build ladders back to one outcome: income that doesn't require more of my time as it grows.

Build with AI

Using Claude Code and OpenClaw to build enterprise-grade software as a non-technical solo founder. The leverage has shifted.

Acquire Cash-Flowing Assets

Strip malls, short-term rentals, syndications, and business acquisitions. Every asset evaluated on one metric: cash-on-cash return.

Engineer Autonomy

Replace rented leverage (salary) with designed leverage (systems). Goal: 100% of living expenses covered by asset cash flow by December 2026.

Currently Building

Two bets. One thesis.

SaaS Product

SearcherOS

The operating system for business acquisition. A Salesforce-caliber CRM built for people searching to buy a business. Scrapes 100+ broker sites daily. Went from Idea to $10k ARR in <60 days.

AI Operations

OpenClaw

My AI operating system. Bob (CEO), Bill (CTO), Bridget (CCO), Riker (CMO), Howard (Acquisitions), and Codex (DevOps) — running go-to-market, distribution, customer ops, and product maintenance. The solo founder's unfair advantage.
