Who's Been There
I'm Kyle - founder of Grimworks and former COO of a startup with a 5000sqft creative studio.
I got tired of my team living in spreadsheets while waiting months for "internal tools" to bubble up the dev roadmap. So I learned to build them myself using AI-assisted development.
Turns out, when you combine operational experience with modern AI coding tools, you can ship production-quality software fast.
No agencies. No outsourcing. Just me building tools for operators like you.
