Hey, I'm Richard 👋🏾 - a Full-Stack Builder from London working on everything from ideas → deployment.

I'm a former Actuary who became hooked on startups after becoming an early employee and growing a B2B SaaS startup from ≈0 to >$10m ARR (acquired)! Now, I’m a Full-Stack Engineer - with 10+ years of experience designing, building and shipping products that people love!

Yaps.ai - A second brain powered by offline models, packaged up in a Desktop application (Mac and Windows), a browser extension (chrome), and a robust AI-powered keyboard on Android and iOS.

• Nack: A multi-modal mobile assistant has thousands of users across ≈100 countries on iOS and Android
• Nack SEO: B2B, AI-powered SEO tool, for SMEs.

Most of my work is in private repositories, so I've started on a few open-source projects:

• Chain of Density: Implementing the Chain Of Density text summarisation technique from recent NLP research by researchers at Salesforce, MIT, Columbia, etc.
• LLM Translator: Translate Markdown files from one language to another using OpenAI's API while retaining original formatting.
• Framer Motion Cheatsheet: A Framer Motion cheatsheet built in React, NextJs and Tailwind.

I'm also contributing to several open-source AI projects.

LLMs, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), AI Agents, etc.

LinkedIn works relatively well.
