From AI for 300M users to AI for the next 300M founders.
I spent 11 years building AI products inside some of the world's most demanding engineering environments — M365 Copilot at Microsoft, a startup acquired by Microsoft, products shipped in days that closed enterprise deals. I saw the agentic shift from inside the company defining it.
Now I'm betting the next decade on a single thesis: AI just made the one-person company viable, and the tools haven't caught up. CopilotVerse is the operating system I want to build for that person.
Why I started this
Working inside Microsoft, I watched AI go from a research experiment to something that genuinely changed how millions of people work. The technology is real. The impact is real. Enterprise teams with dedicated AI budgets and engineering orgs were getting dramatically faster, cheaper, and smarter.
Meanwhile — and this is the part that bothered me — the most exciting kind of company in 2026 is the one-person company. AI just flipped the unit economics of starting a business. The bottleneck is no longer capital or headcount; it's vision and judgment. A single person with the right stack of agents can run what used to take a hundred.
But the tools they have to use? Salesforce. Slack. Linear. Notion. All assume more than one person. Most AI tooling is sold to enterprises. Solopreneurs are stitching together a stack that wasn't designed for them, missing the network effects that come with a real platform.
I started CopilotVerse to build that platform. The Solopreneur OS for the agentic era — products, profile, and network, built from day one for the one-person company.
The credentials behind every product
I built AI at Microsoft.
Led Voice & Vision in M365 Copilot — used by 300M+ people. Shipped Viva Goals from scratch. I know what production-grade AI looks like, not the demo version.
I've taken products from 0 to acquisition.
Ally.io's OKR platform went from nothing to a Microsoft acquisition. I know how to build things that survive past the demo and turn into real businesses.
I ship fast. Really fast.
Delivered a fully functional mobile app in 3 days at Auzmor — converting a prospect into a paying customer. Velocity is a craft, not a promise.
The Solopreneur Bet
Most people talk about AI changing how teams work. I built the AI that 300 million people actually use every day. I know what production-grade AI looks like, what it takes to deploy it, and where the leverage actually is.
The leverage isn't in helping a 1,000-person company get marginally faster. It's in giving one person the firepower of a hundred. That's the bet — the next decade belongs to solopreneurs, and someone has to build the OS for them.
Right now — 2026 — is exactly the right time to make that bet.
Forward-deployed engineers.
We don't operate like a sales-led consultancy or a hand-off-to-juniors firm. The team works as forward-deployed engineers — embedded with each product line and with the solopreneurs using them. Mini-CTOs, on demand, treating every founder on the platform like a co-founder.
We're hiring engineers, designers, and operators who like to ship.

Trust. Straight. Attitude. Works on Founder mode.
