I build the products I believe in, through dialogue with AI coding agents (Claude Code). I can't write code on my own, and I don't read programming languages either. Instead, the AI translates between code and natural language for me; I bring a human's perspective and instincts; I debate design decisions with the AI; and I delegate the implementation entirely to the AI. The result is a quality a solo AI can't reach, at a speed a solo human can't match — both at once.
🗑️ wayste — An AI sorting kiosk that tells you the right bin the moment you walk up to it. Aiming for a world where everyone disposes of waste correctly with zero extra effort, just by going through their normal routine. 2 weeks to build. Currently in pilot discussions with universities and companies in Japan. Homepage
📚 steadii — Academic support app for university students, powered by an autonomous, proactive AI agent. Connects to the external services students rely on; each student gets a personalized "AI secretary" that supports them deep into academic life — from email to class notes. 1 week to build. Currently running in auth-gated alpha. Homepage
🚨 Sonae — A personalized disaster-response AI agent for every citizen — 8,000 of them reasoning in parallel on a single AMD MI300X GPU, each adapting to one person's location, body, and family. Aiming for a world where every emergency alert isn't a generic warning broadcast to thousands, but a personal plan — for every disaster, and the cascade that follows. 1 week to build. Built for the AMD Hackathon 2026 (Track 3: Vision & Multimodal AI). Live demo
📖 CEFR Reading Assistant — A Chrome extension that, while you read English on the web, surfaces only the words above your CEFR level near the text you've selected. Aiming for a reading experience where you learn just the words you actually need — no more switching tabs to look things up, no more being slowed down by translations of words you already know. Currently live on the Chrome Web Store (v4.0.1). Install
I don't "use" AI. I treat the AI as an engineer — one who's slightly less clever than a person, but exceptionally good at writing code:
- Push past the AI's ceiling through dialogue. Single-shot generation tops out at "demoable but shallow." I get to "principled architecture" by asking why this design? until the answer holds up.
- Delegate the coding entirely. I haven't touched a single line of code in any of these projects. When a better-than-human engineer is available, there's no reason to write code myself.
- A speed neither side could reach alone. wayste in 2 weeks, steadii in 1 week — both built to production quality (privacy guarantees, secure payment processing, passing comprehensive third-party automated security audits). Not MVP-level.
Japanese. Spent the first year of high school at Chiba Prefectural Chiba High School (a top public high school in Japan), now on exchange at a high school in Vancouver, Canada. Joining the University of Toronto in September 2026 to study Computer Science.
