What I bring to the table
Building with AI is exciting, but most teams hit the same roadblocks: it takes too long to hire the right people, projects stall before they launch, and "innovation" gets buried under daily operations. Mx.works exists to cut through that noise.
Outcome-driven
Not vague "advice," we ship working products and automations.
Built for speed
Launch real AI products and automations in weeks, not dragged-out months.
Lean by design
Work directly with engineers and designers who've shipped dozens of products.
Founder-led
15+ years building products, teams, and SaaS we know the grind.

About me
I built mx.works because I was tired of vague advice and slow projects. What founders and product leaders really need is a partner who can design, code, and ship real AI products and automations, fast, and then scale them with lean pods that actually grow with their business.
I'm Max — a software engineer, designer, and 5x founder. Over the past 15+ years I've helped companies hire 500+ developers and designers, and I know how painful and slow traditional models can be. mx.works is the partner I always wished I had: hands-on, fast-moving, and outcome-driven.
