Six live commercial apps built and run by one AI-first founder. Every app has a free tier. Hard problems, simple products.

## Summary

Craig Winter is an AI-first solopreneur who builds and operates commercial software for markets that big SaaS overcomplicates or ignores. This site is a portfolio of six live products, not vanity prototypes. Each app has its own domain, customers, paid plans, and a free way to start.

Stack across the portfolio: Vercel and Neon Postgres.

## Approach

AI changed the math: a focused product for a few thousand customers no longer needs a large team. Working AI-first, one person who understands the problem can design, ship, and maintain commercial software.

1. **AI-first, end to end** — Design, code, testing, and copy with AI agents; AI also powers product features (coaching insights, deliverability, agent briefings, script consulting).
2. **One lean platform** — Shared serverless stack (Vercel + Neon) keeps idle cost near zero so free tiers stay sustainable.
3. **Built to last** — Each app is a long-term business with its own domain and paid plans; free tier is a real start, not a disappearing demo.
