Gold
We flourish only under the right conditions. And more and more, those conditions are of our own making, shaped by the things we build, the tools and systems we now live through. Yet so much of it doesn't really work for us. It was never made to know us: what we need, what wears us down, what lets us grow.
Nothing can truly serve a person it has never understood. Gold pioneers technology that seeks to know us deeply before it ever acts on our behalf.
Projects
Lor
Lor is a social app that picks and shares photos for you by learning what you like to post. Where other platforms just enable interactions between users, Lor creates the interaction itself: an autonomous social network that keeps relationships alive, especially with friends you don't see every day.

Biasbot periodically scans Wikipedia articles for explicit and implicit bias, providing over 50,000 edit suggestions. I built this because editors consistently have trouble catching violations of Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy; bias requires understanding each article's full context (unlike blatant vandalism).
