An AI-powered jobs board for the artisan trades — an online platform for offline jobs. Built to solve a real infrastructure gap: artisans have no centralized, modern place to find opportunities, and employers have no efficient way to find them.

The Trades Show

2025 – Present

A docu-style interview series following the makers, repairers, and craftspeople keeping their trades alive in American cities. Each season uses a city as a cultural backdrop — exploring not just the work, but the people, the lineages, and the stakes of a trade disappearing.

Season 2 — San Francisco, 2026. Premiered March 2026. Episodes follow a bladesmith, a chef, a cobbler, a surfboard shaper, and more — each a study in mastery, community, and the intelligence of the hands.
