I build small, careful software for the Mac and for developers, and I am CTO and co-founder of Vela Intelligence.

Work

Vela Intelligence velaintelligence.com I co-founded it and am CTO. Vela turns large piles of unstructured documents — filings, contracts, reports, board minutes — into decision-ready assessments for investors, boards and regulators, with every conclusion traceable back to its source.

Apps

Vaelora vaelora.app A native macOS app that turns Markdown into properly paginated PDFs — real page geometry, a table of contents whose numbers are true, and no Chrome anywhere. CSS is the styling contract.
Revis github.com/rsalesas/Revis A macOS reviewer for documents that came out of a language model. Mark up HTML or Markdown exactly as it was sent, and export the marks as instructions the same model can act on — addressed by quoted text, never by a gesture. The other half of Vaelora.
Claunnector claunnector.com A Mac menubar app that gives AI tools direct, permissioned access to your mail, calendars, reminders, contacts and notes — on your machine, not in someone's cloud.
Cartograph Download for macOS 15 or later A native Mac app that maps a folder or a whole drive as rings of colour, so you see at once what fills it. Mark what to move or put in the Trash, then do it in one go, every step undoable.
Descarte Soon descarte.app A fast, keyboard-driven image and video viewer for the Mac. Point it at a folder and start looking — stills and footage on one rail, and the next picture is already decoded before you ask for it.
GoWokeless Private Beta gowokeless.app Content assessments for films, books, series, games and songs, so you know what you are getting before you press play.
GoTipsy Private Beta gotipsy.app Assessments for wine, spirits, sake and beer — who really makes it, how it drinks, and which vintages or batches are worth seeking out.
GoCrimeless Soon gocrimeless.app Safety assessments for places — how a city or a district actually is right now, written for one person deciding whether and how to go.
