Hi, I'm Richard 👋
I build software
for the AI era.
Founder and engineer. I design and ship AI-native products — from a consumer AI-star platform to commodity trading systems — and care about products that feel fast, sharp, and genuinely useful.
Featured work
Symbix.ai
Live · 6 marketsThe Instagram + TikTok of the AI era — a stage where anyone can create an AI star and keep earning from it. Powered by long-term AI memory, a 26-dimension emotion engine, and multimodal voice, so AI stars feel genuinely warm. Live on the App Store across 6 markets (US, CA, UK, JP, HK, AU).
xRubberCTRM
In developmentAn AI-native CTRM (commodity trading & risk management) platform for the rubber trade — spot opportunity a step earlier, hedge risk a step ahead. A full digital twin of the trading workflow (management cockpit, finance, inventory, orders, long/short matching, margin, credit, audit log) links to banks and warehouses to surface true net exposure in seconds. A privately-deployed AI partner — data never leaves your servers — lives in the team chat: it watches industry news 24/7, forecasts 1–7 day price moves, summarizes meetings, syncs documents, and answers data queries, giving continuous domain-expert advice. It can never edit contracts or other sensitive records without explicit human approval.
