CoPresent

REV: 01
Challenge

Working alongside AI today means bouncing between a chat app, a data tool, and a meeting — agents never share the room, humans never see the data, and context gets lost between tools.

Approach

A real-time workspace where humans and AI agents share one room — voice, video avatars, and an interactive graph canvas on a single presence layer everyone reasons over together.

Impact

Teams run mixed human-and-AI sessions — planning, research, data exploration — in a single space where every participant sees the same data and hears the same conversation.

MemQL

REV: 02
Challenge

AI-native applications stitch a database, vector store, workflow engine, AI gateway, and voice stack together by hand — each with its own schema, query language, and failure modes.

Approach

A distributed time-series memory graph that collapses AI providers, event-driven automations, and real-time voice into one DSL — concepts, queries, mutations, and workflows declared side-by-side and executed across specialized nodes.

Impact

Product teams ship voice agents, cognitive workflows, and multi-agent spaces in weeks instead of quarters because the DSL replaces the integration glue their competitors still hand-write.

REV: 03
Challenge

Distributed systems teams waste weeks hand-writing async messaging boilerplate for every new service.

Approach

Go code generator that reads AsyncAPI specs and produces production-ready client and server code automatically.

Impact

Open-source tool eliminating manual boilerplate. Ships messaging infrastructure 10x faster.

t4t: Tag-based Filesystem

REV: 04
Challenge

Hierarchical folder structures break down as projects and contexts multiply across a developer's filesystem.

Approach

Tag-based CLI that replaces rigid folders with composable, searchable metadata. Think tags, not trees.

Impact

Open-source. Enables cross-cutting organization without duplicating or moving files.

.05/ Testimonials
Jose is an extremely competent AI developer. In a very short time, he put together architectural documentation, determined which components each team member could take on and quickly delegated work. After development was complete, he also jumped into presenting to a community of software developers and technologists as part of an AI-focused workshop series.
