An Operator, Not an Influencer

Real AI at a Real SMB

AI is not an abstraction. It's the most powerful tool since the internet to give your SMB an edge in the market, fix operational headaches you've learned to live with, and give you visibility into your business you've never had.

I own and operate a small manufacturing and home services business. Over the last six months, I've implemented dozens of vibe-coded AI solutions that are actually helping employees and customers.

Full walkthroughs of every finished app — dropping over the coming weeks. Get on the list.
The work

I've built and implemented these solutions in my own business with AI. You can too.

At the start of 2026, I had never written a line of code. Today, I've written more than 800,000 lines of code with vibe-coding tools and implemented dozens of tools and applications. Explore these use cases and start implementing at your business.

About me

Running a Main Street business with Silicon Valley magic.

I run an Arizona manufacturer that's been building since 1979. Over six months I went from hating AI to putting real AI into production across the business — the phone, the shop floor, the back office — and created systems my team and customers rely on daily. Nobody's showing owners like us the real production examples or helping SMBs leverage the benefits of AI, so I created Chaparral Intelligence.
