Building
What I'm building.
Donum is the reason this site exists. Realm by Rook is how I pay for Donum. Both are real. One is shipping. One is becoming. Here is what each is, and where each is going.

Reporting that writes itself.
Every services business I know loses 8 to 12 hours per client every month writing the same monthly report. Senior engineers doing copy-paste work. Owners losing nights. The reports going out are average because the people writing them are exhausted. The brand of reliability you sell suffers because the document that proves it is the worst part of the month.
Donum pulls from your monitoring tool, your ticketing system, and your time tracking. It drafts the monthly client report in your firm's voice. You review, edit the parts that matter, and send. 30 minutes instead of a day.
Realm by Rook ran on Donum for 60 days as the first user. We went from 8 to 12 hours per client per month down to 2 to 3 hours. The reports got better, not worse. Clients renewed faster.
Built for MSPs and IT services firms first. Agencies next. First cohort opens soon. No public waitlist yet. But if you're running a services firm and this sounds like your Tuesday, get in touch.
The service arm
Realm by Rook.
AI infrastructure, search architecture, interface engineering, and algorithmic systems. For brands.
Realm by Rook is the service company. It builds production AI systems for clients and gives me a constant pipeline of real product feedback. If you have a brand that needs to ship something serious in AI, this is where to start.
AI Infrastructure
Production AI systems. Pipelines, evals, retrieval. Built to ship.
Search Architecture
Hybrid retrieval, vector + lexical, ranking. Search that earns clicks.
Interface Engineering
Front-end work for AI products. Latency, motion, error states, taste.
Algorithmic Systems
Scoring, ranking, recommendation. The engine behind the interface.
In their words
Two notes.
Working with AVR is like having a co founder who's already been through the chapter you're in. Direct, fast, honest.
He sees around corners. The advice we got in a thirty-minute conversation saved us a year of mistakes.
