I design and ship Thesis, the operating layer where early companies plan and build in one workspace. I study computer science at Arizona State University and research neural network compression.

About

I'm a computer science student at Arizona State University and the founder of Thesis, an operating layer for early companies.

I build the product myself, from the workspace to the agent that reads across issues, docs, and inbox. The work is the same record: planning, writing, and the agent that sits on top of it.

I also research neural network compression through ASU's FURI program. Computer science at Arizona State University, 2025–2029. Diploma, VPMP Polytechnic.

Planning, writing, review, and an AI agent in one place.

A new kind of operating layer

Company building is at an inflection point. Artificial intelligence is fundamentally reshaping how products are planned, built, and shipped, and how small teams stay aligned while they do it.

AI increases what a founding team can create, but it also raises the bar for clarity and coordination. At Thesis, we are building the tools for this era: a purpose-built system where people and agents operate together in one shared, structured environment.

Thesis unifies issues, projects, initiatives, inbox, documentation, and an AI agent that reads across the company. Instead of stitching together five products and losing context in the gaps, teams get one operating layer: fast, keyboard-first, and designed for craft.

Thesis is built by Atlas. We started from a simple belief: early companies deserve software that matches how they actually work. Tight loops, high ambition, and zero patience for tools that get in the way. We care deeply about speed, taste, and the quiet details that make software feel inevitable.

We're a small team focused on the long game: making Thesis the default operating layer for the next generation of companies. If that resonates, we'd love to build with you.
