Orion Jones

I'm Orion Jones. I taught myself to build, and I ship — real products people can open in a browser, not decks.

In the last year I've launched a live marketplace with payments, built and delivered a commercial real estate platform for a paying client, and published an open-source toolkit of 61 tools other developers install. I move from idea to something working in about two weeks.

Every one of these is live and verifiable — a stranger can click it right now.

Product2026

Lucid

A private AI notetaker that records, transcribes, and reasons over real meetings — built for privacy first.

Tooling2026

Claude Handoff

A tool that carries an AI coding session — its full context — from one machine or model to the next without losing the thread.

What I build

AI that does the work.

Fixed scope, roughly two weeks, a working thing at the end — not a strategy doc.

AI products

A real feature or product, designed and shipped, wired into what you already use.

Automation

The repetitive work — intake, follow-up, outreach, reporting — handed to an agent that just does it.

Voice + phone AI

Agents that answer calls, qualify, and book straight into a calendar.

Sites & deploys

Fast, clean, production sites — designed, built, and live on your domain.

Open to

AI roles, internships & advisory.

Alongside client work, I'm open to the right AI opportunity — an internship, a founding-engineer seat, or advising a team standing up its first AI initiative. If you're on a board or leading one, I'm easy to vet: everything I claim is a link you can open.

Happy to share a résumé or walk a team through the work. Fastest is a short call.
