The Story Behind the Build

The Starting Point14 March 2026
I spent 19 years watching insurance teams drown in PDFs. Broker submissions arrive as 40-page packs. Underwriters manually scan for key terms. Claims handlers re-type the same FNOL data three times. And every six months, someone presents a slide deck about 'AI transformation.' I got tired of slides.

Day 0 — Why I'm building this

The DisciplineDay 0
Before I built a single feature, I spent a full day building nothing visible. No UI. No AI calls. No demo. Just infrastructure. Day Zero was about answering one question: when I am on Day 22 and exhausted, will the platform still make it easy to ship a quality app?

Day Zero — The most important app I never shipped

The Capstone12 April 2026
A syndicate closes Q3. Claims are still emerging. The file is 31% developed. A reserve decision based on paid losses alone is naive. Loss development triangulation is statistically sound — but tedious to calculate and easy to get wrong in spreadsheets. Day 30 fixes that.

Day 30 — Loss Ratio Triangulator (capstone)
