Most AI tools make you dumber. They do the thinking so you don't have to, and then one day you can't. I build the other kind. Tools that keep humans in the loop, that sharpen judgment instead of replacing it, that leave you better than they found you. Sometimes that's AI for teachers. Sometimes it's finding the perfect driving road. Sometimes it's figuring out what happens when a human writes the words and a machine sings them. revmatch.dev is the studio where I chase these questions.

Let's build the future together.

Chalk.my

chalk.my

AI-powered lesson planning, assignment creation, and grading for K-12 teachers.

The teacher stays in the driver's seat. Chalk is a collaborator, not a replacement. When you "Chalk my lesson" or "Chalk my assignment," you're instructing an AI partner that facilitates engagement with the pedagogical process rather than short-circuiting it. The name works as a verb: teachers can literally say "I'm going to chalk my assignment" and it flows naturally.

For grading, the goal is to learn the teacher's patterns and voice, not to spit out generic feedback. The tool adapts to how each teacher thinks about assessment rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all approach.

The core philosophy: AI superpowers for humans doing hard, important, and often undercompensated work. Brain atrophy from AI thinking-substitution is real. We need to lift up and empower superstar human teachers who can change kids' lives, not turn them into button-clickers who can't function without AI assistance.

RevMatch.co

revmatch.co

A curated fleet of drivers' cars. Machines that come alive when you do.

Everything in the fleet is chosen for one simple reason: it delivers that rare, connected feeling where human and machine blur and the road becomes the conversation.

RevMatch began with a trio of manual mid-engine Porsches (718 Cayman GTS, 981 Boxster GTS, 981 Cayman Base) and evolved into a broader celebration of driver engagement: a manual MX-5, a manual GTI, a 991.2 Carrera for when you want the icon, and an Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio with one of the sweetest-sounding V6s ever built.

The Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo, Model Y Performance, and Jeep Wrangler 4xe prove the feeling isn't limited to three pedals or combustion. Different sensation, same grin.

We built this because we love these cars too much to let them sit. Cars like these deserve to be driven, properly, joyfully, by people who appreciate what they are. If they leave you with a bigger grin than you arrived with, we've done our job. $150K+ ARR through Turo.

RoadNotTaken.io

roadnottaken.io

Scenic route discovery and trip planning. Find the roads with mountain vistas, winding curves through redwood forests, and charming small towns that standard navigation apps ignore in favor of speed.

The app weaves together a conversational AI chatbot, interactive maps, and curated editorial content. Describe what kind of drive you want (maximize scenery, prioritize history and culture, find the best driving roads) and get personalized route recommendations with stops, viewpoints, and timing suggestions.

Born from RevMatch. When you're renting Porsches and Alfa Romeos to driving enthusiasts, the question "where should I take it?" comes up constantly. Building tools to answer that question better became a natural extension of the core mission: putting people in great cars on great roads.

Named for the Frost poem. It captures exactly what the app is about: adventure beyond the obvious path.

ShinyBlackHoles.com

shinyblackholes.com

A 20-year catalog of songs brought to life through human-AI collaboration. Human creativity amplified by AI.

All words are human-written. All performances are AI-generated. The AI performs but doesn't author. Lyrics remain the irreducibly human element.

Songs evolve from their earlier selves rather than erasing them. AI arrangements build on the original vision. Glitches and soul are preserved. The imperfections aren't mistakes. They're the ghost in the machine singing along.

The album, Lost and Found, spans songs from 2006 to 2025. Themes of technological anxiety, human connection, isolation, and the search for meaning weave throughout.

The site features reviews from multiple AI models, creating a recursive loop where AI-performed music about human-AI relationships is critiqued by AI. The liner notes document the creative process. The reviews interpret the work. Together they form a meditation on authenticity, authorship, and what it means to create when your collaborator might be learning to supersede you.
