👋 Hey, I’m Ryan. I help companies build AI agents that don’t just demo well — they actually work in production.
I cofounded Wise Assistant (now Relish) in 2019 to build AI-first customer experience tools. Later, I cofounded DentoAI, where I led our agent infrastructure through HIPAA compliance and helped secure a $2.7M seed round.
Through my consultancy, Vunda.ai, I take a tool-agnostic, first principles approach to ship agents and evaluation systems for clients like Henry Shi (Founder of Super.com), ARC-AGI Benchmark, and others. While I contributed early to LangChain, I believe in choosing the right tool for each job - not just following trends.
Today, I’m responsible for agentic systems handling thousands of daily interactions with happy customers.
🛠️ What I focus on:
- •Tool-agnostic, first principles approach - choosing the right stack for each unique challenge
- •Building agents that survive audits, real-world traffic, and customer expectations
- •Debugging LLM workflows with custom evaluation frameworks (like my MCP debugger)
- •Accelerating the cycle from prototype to live deployment
- •Training staff and senior engineers to 3-4X their output using AI tools and best practices
🚀 Why it matters:
Most agents break the moment they leave the playground.
I believe the future belongs to teams that ship — not just demo. Real users. Real outcomes. Real scale.
If you are building with LLMs and want your systems to actually work, follow along or reach out.
Let’s build something that lasts.
