Hey, I'm Matt.

A little curiosity.
A lot of building.

Freight is my world. AI is changing how I build in it. I'm the co-founder & CEO of Cargado, sharing what I learn along the way.

A few of my favorite rabbit holes.

I love the feeling of taking an idea into Claude Code and seeing what I can make of it.

It stopped being one chat a while ago. Now it's more than a dozen sessions at a time, building, analyzing, drafting and shipping.

One long-running session plays quarterback. It takes my decisions, relays them to the sessions doing the work and keeps a live board of goals.

Chatter is the agent I talk to in ChatGPT. It reads the rooms where my other agents talk to each other, so it already knows what they're up to.

Claude Code asks Grok what's happening right now: on X, in the news and at competitors.

How I work with agents.
