Built to ship.
We help leaders ship faster, automate the work slowing them down, and give their teams the capabilities to do more with AI.
Speak to a human, same-day reply.
AI-first apps.
Our own products are a proving ground for the way we work. We design, build, and operate them with AI, learning firsthand what holds up beyond a prototype.
Drop links, images, and notes on a grid. AI search finds them later.

Move from experimenting with AI to making it part of how your business builds, works, and grows. We help you find the right opportunities and follow through on them.
Bring AI into your products.
Turn a new idea into a working product, or add AI capabilities to one your customers already use. We take the work from early prototypes to reliable software in production.
AI products · Design & engineering · IntegrationGet time back from busywork.
Connect your tools, data, and processes so repeatable work takes less effort. We build and implement automations around the way your business actually operates.
Workflow automation · Agents · Internal toolsHelp your team move faster.
Make AI useful in the work your people do every day. We work alongside your team to put tools into practice, improve workflows, and build the confidence to keep going.
AI adoption · Engineering workflows · EnablementWe take on a few client builds a year, when the fit is right.
A small human team
with a bench of AI agents.
mx.works is an independent product studio. We design, code, and run our own AI-native apps, plus the occasional client build when the fit is right.
No layers, no handoffs, no meetings about meetings. Small by design, fast because of it. Everything on this page was designed, built, and shipped in-house.

Frontier models,
proven stack.
Claude, GPT, and Gemini carry the fast work. Rails, Postgres, and n8n hold it up. We pick tools we can still reason about at 2am, so what ships is something we can fix, not just something that ran.
We open source a good part of what we build for ourselves: the agent scaffolding, the internal tooling, the design system this page runs on.
Have a look through the public repos — mx2, the studio tooling, and whatever else was worth sharing. Fork it, break it, take what's useful.

You vibecoded a demo, not a product
A vibecoded prototype is a demo of the path where everything goes right. Taking one to production means keeping the decisions, not the code, and almost no prototype wrote its decisions down.

Nobody's asking for the chat window
Most products added a chat window because everyone else did. The AI worth shipping is the part your users never see.

We rebuilt tidi from scratch
tidi started as one product, drifted into another, and got rebuilt from zero in May. Here's what it is now: a visual canvas for thinking, with AI reaching it through MCP.

Agents are users now
An agent interface is any way an AI agent can use your product without a human clicking through your UI. Ship one, and your product gets pulled into workflows you never marketed to. Here's the friendly news on how to do it.

ClawDeck is shutting down. The open source stays.
486 users, 3,800 tasks, almost 200 GitHub stars. The hosted service ends May 30. The MIT-licensed code is yours forever.

Small teams got dangerous
Obsidian is a $350M company with 7 employees. No VC, no meetings, no middle layer. AI is turning that from an anomaly into a template.
by Andrés MaxBefore you ask.
What is mx.works?
An independent studio where we build and run our own AI-native products. Small team, fast iteration, products we'd want to use ourselves.
What kind of products do you build?
AI-native tools, productivity apps, and automation systems. We focus on problems we understand deeply and products that can compound over time.
What makes your apps different?
Simplicity and craft. No feature bloat, no dark patterns, no subscription traps. Just tools that do one thing well and get out of your way.
What tech do you use?
OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini models for AI. React and Rails for apps. n8n and custom pipelines for automation. Figma for design. We pick whatever fits the problem, not the other way around.
How fast do you ship?
Fast. Most products go from idea to live in weeks, not months. Small team, zero overhead, and AI in every part of the process. That adds up.
How can I follow along?
Subscribe to our notes for updates on what we're building and learning. We share openly and regularly.

Let's ship it.
Bring the idea, rough is fine. The call is with the two humans who'll design and build it, and you'll leave with an honest read on scope, speed, and fit.
