Proof of work,
not promises.
I'm Trace Cohen — 3x founder, 65+ angel investments, and a builder who treats AI agents like an engineering team. This page is not a resume. Everything below is live, in production, and clickable — built and operated by one person directing autonomous systems.

Autonomous systems that ship while I sleep
Most people use AI as a chat box. I run it as infrastructure: a fleet of scheduled agents that research, write, build, cross-link, QA, and deploy to production every single day. My job is architecture, taste, and the feedback loops — the machines handle the reps. This is the actual production schedule:
Researches a trending public-data topic, builds a full interactive dashboard, runs a 4-skill design audit, and ships it to production. Autonomously.
Audits the newest posts for orphaned content and wires contextual cross-links between posts, tools, and dashboards.
Writes 10 data-driven articles with metadata, JSON-LD schema, FAQs, and OG images — then commits, pushes, and deploys to production.
Detects failed morning runs and re-executes them — the system repairs itself before I notice anything broke.
Pulls Google Search Console data, flags low-CTR and dropping pages, and queues them for rewrite. Search performance feeds back into the content engine.
Pre-commit hooks block banned color palettes and design violations across every repo. OG images regenerate at build time. Taste, enforced by machine.
OUTPUT: 480+ articles, 41 interactive tools, and daily deploys — operated solo, supervised, never hand-written one keystroke at a time.

What I bring on day one
The honest pitch: I'm not a career software engineer — I'm an operator and investor who figured out how to get team-scale output from AI systems, with the founder judgment to know what's worth building and the VC pattern-matching to know what the market wants. Whatever role this is for — growth, product, platform, AI ops, investing — this page is what one person can ship. Imagine it pointed at your roadmap.
Hiring? Skip the screening call.
