Dan Vernon

I build practical AI systems, developer tools and data products.

I work independently across applied-AI consultancy, developer tooling and product ventures. My background runs from risk and operations into software engineering, so I tend to design for the operational problem, the technical system and the product around it at the same time.

I build with coding agents as a working method. The point isn't the tooling — it's the breadth, pace and reliability of what ships.

Environments are the unit of reproducibility, not code

When real-time data lies, prefer stability over freshness
