I make short-form UGC ads for software I'd actually use: AI, apps, dev tools, creative tools, anything that delivers real value. I know my way around code and AI, and I'm allergic to hype. That's why people trust my recommendations.
I started this channel for two reasons: to show my friends how to actually start using AI, and to help people figure out which software is worth it for what they're trying to do. There are a lot of options out there and I don't trust most of em.
I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, obsessed with technology. I studied computer science at a no-name state school, passing with just B's and C's, and I never really felt like a great developer. Then AI caught up to my ideas, and now I'm building things I used to only dream about. I've made art, music, and software my whole life, and I've always had a need to create stuff that means something to me.
If you're new to creating, here's what I keep repeating on stream: your first few things probably won't be good, and that's fine. But before you post, step back and ask yourself, "Is this actually good?" Because making slop is easy. But making quality slop, now that's an art.
Right now I'm trying to make it as a solo entrepreneur, and I'm doing it in public, trial and error included. I test tools on and off stream and tell you exactly how they went.
I've also worked in sales for the past 8 years, so I can spot a scam from a mile away. If something's overhyped, I'll say so.
So to wrap it up: if you are building an AI or SaaS tool, send it my way. I'll give it a real, honest try on camera. That's exactly why people trust what I say.
Vertical ads built for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.
What I'm testing right now. If I make your ad, it's because I actually poke at this stuff every day.
Watching a member demo his Apple AR workspace live in Discord. I'm very active in AI, developer and entrepreneur communities online.
I love making stuff
Trying out a user's custom image model on Hugging Face Spaces. This one makes cinematic storyboards from a prompt. My prompt: "ahhhhhhh on fire guy."
Testing AI design tools for clean, flat, usable art, not just pretty pictures.
What's going on in the world around me?
Comparing effect settings side by side.
Qwen3.6-35B driving a coding agent offline. It wrote and ran Python to draw this banana. Progress, not perfection.
Testing how far AI image tools go on lighting, lens and grain.
Character-based rendering for that terminal look.
Stacking WebGL visuals to see what my GPU actually handles.
Testing the open-source spark tool. This red panda is a community example from its wiki.
You really think I'm going to spill the beans?
Glitch and color effects I use on streams and in my videos.
I understand code and I actually use AI tools daily, so your demo looks like it's from someone who gets it, not someone reading a script. Fun on camera, honest about what works.
I've been using this computer thing for a long time. I can show the real user workflow on screen, so the ad holds up when a technical viewer looks closely.
I figure stuff out, and I get better at it every day. I typically find a smart approach to solving problems and delivering value.
All types of software are game. I dabble in everything. Your ad sounds like a tip from someone the viewer already trusts.
