Profile
I build real digital products: Kairo Éditions, a personalised planning and coaching SaaS (iPhone app in beta), an AI training platform, websites and, with VAYLIO, AI agents for professionals. As an apprentice in an Abeille Assurances agency (a French insurer), I work on customer relations and the agency's digital presence.
How I work
I don't just “ask AI for things”: I run projects with several agents, each in its own role, with safeguards. That's how Kairo was built.
- I decide, they executeEach agent has a written scope. Nothing goes live without my approval.
- A second AI reviews the workWhat Claude Code writes, Codex reviews. Two sets of eyes are better than one.
- I automate what repeatsPosts, repetitive tasks, updates: things people no longer have to do.
