Hey, I’m Grant.

I’ve been building with AI every day for over 12 months. Not writing about it from the sidelines. Actually in the trenches, shipping products, breaking things, and figuring out what works.

Background

I have a Bachelor's in Information Technology and I've been in the IT industry for 5 years. Right now I'm working as an Infrastructure Engineer at an enterprise company, and I'm also a cofounder of Mentioned, which I'm actively building. So when I talk about using AI to build and automate, it's coming from someone who does it professionally, not just as a hobby.

Why this exists

There's a lot of noise in AI right now. Everyone's talking about it, most people are just regurgitating the same takes. I wanted a place where I could share what I'm actually learning. The real techniques, the real workflows, the stuff that moves the needle when you sit down and build.

What you'll find here

Curated guides from every major AI provider. Workflows you can steal and use today. News from the sources that matter. No fluff, no hype cycles, no "AI will replace everyone" doom posts. Just practical stuff from someone who uses these tools to build things every single day.

My approach

I don't gatekeep. Everything I learn, I share as I go. If a prompting technique changed how I work, it goes here. If a workflow saved me hours, it goes here. If a new model dropped and I tested it, you'll hear about it. Honestly, not as a press release.

**

For everyone

You don't need to be technical. I built this for my non-technical curious friends too. If you can use ChatGPT, you can implement everything I share. The goal is to make AI accessible and useful, not to make it feel like you need a CS degree.

come build with me.
