I build AI on-ramps for humans.
I work on AI agent infrastructure, open standards, and measurement systems.
Founder, PAICE.work and Snap Synapse.
Systems do not generally fail because the tech is bad. They fail at the handoffs between roles, between agents, between decisions that no one designed to connect. I build the standards, diagnostics, and tooling that make human-AI collaboration structurally sound, not just technically possible.
Interoperability over integration. Measurement over intuition. Structure over speed.

| If you are... | Start with | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Building assistant-facing setup docs | GuideCheck | Gives assistants a bounded, human-reviewable assistant-guide.txt before they act |
| Coordinating multiple agents | Turnfile | Provides a consent-based peer protocol without a central orchestrator |
| Publishing regulatory interpretations | PubLedge | Makes JIAs, RMAs, no-action letters, and advisory opinions hash-pinned and machine-readable |
| Measuring AI readiness | AI Posture | Scores readiness across people, infrastructure, and regulation |
| Auditing AI-generated UI | A11y Audit | Runs portable WCAG 2.1 AA checks on agent-authored web code |
- Skill Provenance is listed in Awesome OpenClaw Skills and scored 8.41/10 on ProSkills.md.
- Agentlink includes upstream CLI enhancements proposed in PR #2.
- PAICE.work, Siteline, and EveryAILaw are deployed public products.
- Signals & Subtractions publishes weekly. PAICE Newsletter publishes every weekday.
True intelligence in the AI era is composite: human and machine capabilities combined into something neither can achieve alone. PAICE.work operationalizes this through an Aggregated Intelligence Posture (AIP) measured across three vectors, bounded by the weakest:
| Vector | Product | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| People | PAICE.work | How effectively humans and AI actually collaborate. Behavioral, not self-report. |
| Infrastructure | Siteline | How ready an organization's digital presence is for AI agents acting on behalf of humans |
| Regulation | EveryAILaw | How informed and prepared an organization is for AI-specific compliance |
Synthesized into a single AI Posture score. One number, three places to invest.
Released independently because interoperability is the point, not lock-in. These are portable specs and tools for agent infrastructure, governance, and machine-readable public knowledge.
