Tallinn · AI builder, writer, occasional stand-up
I build the automations.Then I show you exactly how.
Ten years running operations at Careem, Bolt and Wise. Now I build AI systems for a living and publish the working parts — guides, teardowns, and the occasional joke about all of it. No hype, no affiliate links, no tool I haven't broken myself.
Three ways in.
All of them free.
Most people arrive from a reel and want the long version, or arrive from a guide and want the short one. Pick whichever end you're at.
Practical walkthroughs on Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and n8n. Written from builds that actually shipped, which is why several of them are mostly about what went wrong.
Read the guides →Short breakdowns, live builds, and the occasional stand-up bit about AI. Including the one calling out what ships versus what gets posted.

Each one is a thing I actually needed to work, written up while it was still annoying me. Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, n8n, ElevenLabs.
Most people paste their resume into ChatGPT and hope. Here is the four-skill Claude loop that diagnoses, scores, rewrites, and interview-preps your resume in one pass.
6 min readYour resume is not the problem, your prompt is. Claude can run four back-to-back skills on your resume: ATS diagnoser, keyword recruiter, bullet rewriter, and mock hiring manager. Here is the exact loop.
7 min readStop switching between tabs to compare things in your head. One click of the Gemini icon in Chrome reads across all your open tabs and gives you one answer.

4 min readThere is a file you can write in plain English that makes Claude work like it was custom-trained for your job. It is called a Skill, and it takes about 90 seconds to set up.
5 min readSystems, and the
person building them.
Live builds, breakdowns, the podcast, and the stand-up. The automations are the job; this is the rest of it.
I think out loud.
The essays that don't fit in a caption. Automation, operations, and what happened when I took my former employer to the Labour Dispute Committee and won.
On wrongful termination, the Labour Dispute Committee, and what happens when you refuse to accept the lie.
Read on Substack ↗If you're reading this, something has probably happened. A termination letter. Unpaid wages. A boss mistreating you making your life miserable.

All sixteen guides, the whole back catalogue of writing, and the newsletter. No email wall on the guides — they're static pages, you can read them without telling me anything. The newsletter asks for an email because that's how a newsletter works.
Sometimes, and when I do it says so on the piece. Paid work is labelled every time, including in the caption, not just in a hashtag at the bottom. If it isn't labelled, nobody paid for it.
You shouldn't, for reference material — the docs are better. The guides are for the part docs never cover: what breaks in practice, what the thing costs to run once it's live, and which of the three obvious approaches is the one that survives contact with real data.
Both. The publishing is free. The teaching runs through Soch Academy — hands-on sessions with a team on their own work rather than a course nobody finishes. Different page, different thing.
Money. Machines. Meaning.
Conversations with Riz. What I actually built that week, what broke, and what it cost — plus the occasional detour into money, machines and what any of it is for.
