Every new project started the same way: me, typing the same corrections I had already typed a dozen times before. So I ran an experiment on myself.
Tyler Szakacs
Developer, follower of Jesus, dad to Cal, and distance runner out of Philadelphia. I build AI products, agent infrastructure, local MCP servers, and iOS apps, plus custom software and platforms for clients through Szakacs Media.
Vero
Vero is a native iOS finance app that answers plain-English questions about your money. It connects your accounts through Plaid, reasons over the actual transactions, and answers in a sentence instead of a chart. Every answer cites the transactions behind it. Built in Swift and SwiftUI.
Payday
Payday is an iOS tip and shift tracker for hourly and tipped work. It logs shifts, computes true hourly rate, projects the month, and exports clean records. Built in Swift and SwiftUI.
Wellspring
Wellspring is a custom EHR for nutrition clinics. Charting, scheduling, and patient handouts, with live Square syncing so appointments, inventory, and supplement sales stay in step with the chart. Built for and running daily at a Philadelphia practice.
Szakacs Media
Szakacs Media is my software and design company. I build custom platforms, websites, iOS apps, and the marketing systems that run alongside them. Recent client work includes Marpé Nutrition, a full practice platform, and GNA Works, brand and site for a business consulting firm.
Pallium
Pallium is a local-first control plane for AI coding agents. It keeps repo memory, verification, sessions, and dynamic multi-agent workflows on your machine so agent work can be inspected, resumed, and governed outside a single chat window.

The experiment had three arms: Claude Code's dynamic workflows, Pallium with its default Codex workers, and Pallium driving Claude models through a provider…

There are so many people who question God's love, and I think it comes down to this: they do not believe He is doing what's best for them.
