Product designer for human problems

About

I'm a product designer focused on human problems — the ones AI-generated software tends to skip in the rush to look finished. I audit real, publicly-shipped AI-built products to find the patterns that make them feel wrong, then build tools that fix them for good. First up: OnSystem, drop-in component kits + an AI context pack for the screens AI coding tools get wrong most often. More in the same vein on the way.

OnSystem.Design - Drop-in components for the screens AI builds badly

We audited 11 real apps built with AI coding tools. Nearly all broke the same six ways: decorative color, numbers that don't reconcile, no empty states. OnSystem is three React + Tailwind kits built to make those failures structurally impossible.
