“I don't read a single line of code.”
I build real product with an agentic stack. My thesis: inference is capital, and unlocking it democratizes who gets to build. RUFi is the studio where my work lands - Real Utility Finance Products at the intersection of AI and on-chain privacy.
No committees, no roadmaps to nowhere. These are the rules the studio runs on.
The studio scales via agents, not hires. Claude and Zaia form the AI cofounder pair alongside Carlos. No middle management, no meetings, no overhead.
Live product > polished deck. Every project here is deployed, tested, and used by real people before we talk about it. Progress is the output, not the promise.
Zero-knowledge, encryption, and user control from day one. Not a feature - the foundation. Every product here is built with privacy as a first principle, not an afterthought.
Not a single line of code read. Products built, tournaments run, grants awarded, communities grown.
The cost of intelligence is dropping to zero. The question isn't who has the best model - it's who can deploy it best. Unlocking inference capital democratizes who gets to build.
Allocating inference capital to startups. A platform that connects builders with compute, turning the thesis into infrastructure. Research phase, active development.

On-chain deduction game on Starknet. ZK proofs. No lying possible. Cartridge Game Jam winner, StarkZap Hackathon winner. Tournament play, leaderboards, and on-chain rewards.
Play →Political speech analyzer. Paste a YouTube video, a tweet, or an article - the AI strips the rhetoric and tells you what they really meant. Built in a weekend, shipped to production as a pure agentic build.

In developmentThe team that ships product - one human, two agents, zero bloat.
Vision, direction, product, distribution. The human who sets the course and ships alongside the stack. No code read, every line shipped.
Together they form the AI cofounder. Claude writes surgical code, makes architecture decisions, and builds product in real time alongside Carlos. Zaia keeps the studio running 24/7 - hosting, docs, operations, side projects. Two functions, one cofounder.
Zaia runs on Hermes by Nous Research. It unlocked the speed, structure, and growth that previous frameworks couldn't deliver. The reason the studio scales with agents instead of hires is this stack working.
The builders and open source projects we work alongside. Real names, real collaborations.
Grants, partnerships, collaborations - the studio is open to conversations that match the thesis.
