Voice-controlled personal assistant running on a Raspberry Pi 5. Custom-built from a bare OS installation. Whisper handles speech-to-text on-device. Smart model routing for language processing — lightweight model for fast queries, heavier model for complex reasoning. Persistent memory via SQLite. Integrated with Gmail, Google Calendar, Home Assistant, and Tavily for real-time search.

K-12 educational platform for teaching technical skills to non-technical learners. Core innovation is a dual-model verification system (provisional patent 590420394-ABX): a fast model performs first-pass content checks, a second model handles deep accuracy and pedagogical verification. Content only reaches the learner after clearing both tiers. All API calls routed server-side. XP gamification rewards completions, streaks, and assessments. Currently in customer discovery.

Hardware-integrated creative production environment built around a four-node Raspberry Pi 5 cluster. Five switchable modes — Game, Film, Music, Stream, Write — each with its own software configuration and monitoring setup. Mode switching via voice commands through Hazel or physical Stream Deck. The cluster runs distributed inference via exo, connected over gigabit with PoE+ power and NVMe storage. Solar-compatible architecture, open-source stack, no vendor lock-in.
