AI product builder • Operator • Perpetual student
Building the systems around AI, then sharing what survives reality.
I'm Berwin. I turn messy operational problems into AI products, test emerging tools in real workflows, and document what I learn along the way.

The journal
Notes from the work, not from the sidelines.
Experiences, reviews, and working thoughts on AI products, tools, and the systems around them.
Open Models Are No Longer the Backup Option
Open models are no longer competing to be the best alternative. For many real tasks, they are competing with the best models, period.

Ideas I'm turning into things.
Each project starts with a problem I have felt closely enough to keep thinking about.
A little context
I care about the gap between what AI promises and what teams can actually use.
My work sits between product strategy, solution design, and hands-on building. I like starting with the awkward operational problem, then working backward into a product people would willingly adopt.
This site is where I'll share my work, experiences, and thinking as they develop, without forcing everything into a constant content schedule.
Berwin's dispatch
One useful idea when I have one.
