What I've shipped

Three tiers, honestly labeled: systems inside the perimeter — the work this site is about; products running in the wild; and the lab, where ideas earn the right to become either.

Open Cradle

Regulated firms — law, clinics, family offices — need AI on client documents, but professional secrecy rules out any cloud API. Cradle runs agents, retrieval, and two-layer risk triage entirely on the client's hardware.

ResultEvery answer cites its source chunk; deterministic rules decide, models explain; an operator approves anything above the green threshold. The audit trail writes itself.

Single Window — permit workflows

AI Team Lead at Kyrgyz Single Window, leading AI work for systems used by foreign-trade participants and the agencies that issue their permits. One conversation about a task eating hours of officers' weeks became ai.trade.kg — a deployed assistant, not a transformation program.

ResultNothing recorded ever touches a server that isn't yours.
