Things I think should exist. If you're working on any of these, send me a note.

  1. At Home Health

    Eldercare for the 67 million Americans entering the last chapter of their lives. There are about a million nursing home beds, nowhere near enough, and nobody wants to fight for one anyway. Sensors, systems and robotics so this generation can age at home, comfortably and safely.

  2. Dig Dude

    Trenching a city street is a mess. You locate the utilities, then dig by hand around gas, water and telecom lines you can't tell apart, with compressed air and a brush. Dig Dude automates utility trenching in cities with complex subsurface assets, with robotics.

  3. A new kind of school (name TBD)

    I grew up between two worlds: friends at private boarding schools their whole lives, and friends in overcrowded public systems with thousands of kids. Then college, where the degree rarely matches what a kid is actually passionate about and tuition is a money grab for bloated institutions. Real-world experience matters more. The US needs a new type of school.

  4. AllFits.ai

    An AI wardrobe for guys who want their clothes organized and good-looking outfits put together in seconds, so you don't even have to think about it. Something I built in my free time and keep up for fun, mostly for myself.
