The other half of my brain — I build my own tooling.

Runs on a machine at home that never sleeps. It schedules the research jobs, watches queues for work to pick up, and pings me on Telegram when something needs a human. The metronome the rest of the stack runs to.

Captures tools and articles worth a look, scores each one against how I actually work, and decides adopt or skip. It's why the tooling behind this practice stays current instead of accreting. Runs on Cloudflare with a real database behind it.

The system the advisory practice actually runs on — who I'm talking to, where each conversation stands, what happens next. Built it myself because the off-the-shelf options wanted me to work their way.

Reads fund and market news every day, drafts an advisor newsletter from what it finds, and publishes tokenised client briefs — a private, read-only page per client instead of a PDF in an inbox. Headless: no dashboard drama, just output.

The front door — the landing, the tools you just used, and the routing that ties all of the above into one clean address. One small program at the edge, doing the traffic control.
