Tokens determine the AI bill. Thinking determines how big that bill will be.
When teams exhaust AI usage limits on simple features, the issue usually isn't AI hallucinations, it's outsourcing product judgment to the tool. AI spends dozens of costly iterations trying to infer what humans should have defined upfront.
The Workflow That Works:
You: Write the PRD, set clear constraints, and map the context.
AI: Handles rapid implementation, code generation, and iteration.
Better thinking => fewer iterations => fewer tokens => better outcomes.
Building an AI product or MVP?
I help founders and teams sharpen product scope, write tight PRDs, and optimize AI workflows before burning engineering budgets. Check out my services or drop a message to collaborate!

Awesome!
Hi! I’ve been working on this app for the past three hours, and I’d love to share my prototype with you. Could you test it using the link below and let me know what you think? Your feedback would be really helpful as I work to build a great app for students.
The app’s main purpose is to help students organize their assignments, develop concepts, keep track of their ideas, and ultimately pass their classes!
Andromeda is a great name for a study app, gives it some ambition. The "each task you complete illuminates it" hook is fun, did that gamification angle come first or did it get bolted on after the core assignment tracking was working?
Just shipped my own portfolio site — designed and built end to end.
No templates, no page builder. Figma for the design, then coded in HTML/CSS/JS + Next.js — working alongside AI tools to move faster without cutting corners. Custom animations, full mobile optimization, built in from day one.
Same process I bring to client work: design with intent, build it myself, ship something that actually performs.
love that custom cursor, so much cleverness in every detail!
