Hi, I'm Seva. My core belief is:

Anything that touches a screen should be automated.

Although some things deserve a human touch, most everything can be done better through AI. I run a holdco of ecom brands and SaaS that supports ecom operators. Coding since 2012. My first AI application was long before LLMs became commonplace.

Today agents I wrote do most of the operating work, in the companies and in my life.

See what runs Play the worm

What runs without me

Every one of these used to be a tab I had open.

  1. Ad factory

    Writes the copy, renders the image, launches the ad as a paused draft, and ships it once every check passes.

    nightly

  2. Media buyer

    Reads yesterday's spend and results, moves budgets, kills the losers, graduates the winners, and writes down why.

    every morning, 6:00

  3. Kill switch

    Watches every live ad against its cost-per-result target and pauses anything that breaks it before it gets expensive.

    hourly

  4. Customer service

    Answers tickets, tracks packages, handles returns, and escalates the strange ones to a human.

    around the clock

  5. Stock watch

    Counts what is left, projects the day it runs out, and drafts the reorder while there is still time to ship it.

    daily

  6. Morning briefing

    One message with what changed overnight, across the companies and in my life, and the two or three things that need my call.

    6:05, every day

  7. Inbox and texts

    Reads email, SMS, WhatsApp and iMessage, drafts the replies, and sends the routine ones itself.

    continuous

  8. Life admin

    Calendar, bills, appointments, renewals, the errands that live behind a login. Same treatment as the companies.

    as they come

  9. Fleet watch

    Every agent above reports in. If one goes quiet, this one notices, files the ticket, and tells me only if it matters.

    every 5 minutes

The rule is simple. If a task touches a screen, it gets a system. The system gets a watchdog. I get a summary.

The whole point

I run my entire life this way, not just the companies.

Texts, email, calendar, bills, the briefing that starts my day. If it touches a screen, an agent handles it, and it does the job better than you or I would: it never forgets, never gets bored, and writes down why.

The only real obstacle is the worry about the word AI. Get past it and it transforms your life. I say that as an engineer, not a fan. I shipped my first AI application in 2017, when the word meant models you trained and evaluated yourself.

The story, short version

Finance, then hardware, then software, then agents.

Siberia

Born in Siberia. Emigrated when I was six. Learned early that the rules are different everywhere and that you read them yourself.

Chapter 2 of 5

Bloomberg

First real job. Finance, terminals, numbers all day. Where I learned to read the spreadsheet before believing the story, and to distrust a number that arrives without its source.

Chapter 3 of 5

Physical products

Left finance to build things you can hold. Ten years learning the whole machine the hard way: ads, video, manufacturing, logistics, disputes, and the patents that protect the work.

Chapter 4 of 5

Software

Coding since 2012. Got tired of waiting on other people to build the systems, so I built them. First AI application shipped in 2017, back when that meant training and evaluating your own models.

Holding company

Now a group of e-commerce businesses, software for the people who run them, and a new line of made-for-you digital products. Agents do the operating work. I write the systems and make the calls that are actually mine.

The worm

Snake, the way it was on the phone in your pocket in 2000.

The worm is the agent. The dots are my old to-do list. Arrow keys or WASD on a keyboard, swipe on a phone. Every task you eat is one less tab I have open.

If you run a company and are replacing your own work with systems, I want to compare notes.
