My approach

More leverage.
Work you can check.

AI should serve engineering teams. I believe in AI acceleration without slop.

AI lets engineers try more. I help teams put process around it so that the results build up.

Still curious. Still building.

I’ve spent over $750k
guiding AI agents.

I test tools on real projects, find where agents get stuck, and build ways through. Your team gets that head start.

Since I started tracking about three years ago.

Leverage agents for quality,
not slop.

I build the harness around agents: the context, tools, rules, and checks that guide their work. That means a clear goal, changes people can review, and lessons that improve the next run.

AI can move the bottleneck from writing code to reviewing it, testing it, or keeping it clear. I help your team spot the new blocks and solve them.

  1. 01 / DEFINE

    Set the goal.

    Name what should change and what must keep working. Give each agent the context and checks it needs.

  2. 02 / BUILD

    Let agents work.

    Keep changes small enough to review. Track the work and make each result easy to check.

  3. 03 / CHECK

    Test what matters.

    Run the checks. Review the change. Try the user task. Fix what fails.

  4. 04 / LEARN

    Make the next run better.

    Keep the result and the lesson. Improve the step that caused the problem.

05 / Work directly with me

I solve the bottlenecks.
Your team keeps moving.

I’m Daniel Ackerman, an engineer, founder, and exited CTO. I work with you to find what holds the business back, then get into the code with your team to fix it.

The fix can mean better tools, clearer roles, or a new way for the team to work together.

I love helping teams work well together, learn the tools, and build things they’re proud of. My aim: more progress, more pride in the work, and a happier engineering culture.
