I build software for people I can name. My payments company yew. is live at two businesses in SF and has quietly moved over $1M in card volume. Before that: Supplyframe (acquired by Siemens) and live TV at Red Bull. That's the summary.

about

Ship, or it doesn't count.

yew. is my payments company: card-present payments plus AI tools for small businesses, live at two shops today. I own the payments end to end - everything from the card reader on the counter to the money landing in the bank, built and run by me, with every cent accounted for. Before that: live TV at Red Bull and the CPQ pricing engine at Supplyframe (acquired by Siemens).

Payments

The full path from tap to bank deposit, reliable enough that two businesses run on it every day.

AI tools

Production AI for small-business ops - shipped where it actually helps, not demos.

See yew.
