Dave Lawler
Builder. Writer. Founder. I build AI-powered businesses and write about what I learn.
I spent three decades in enterprise integration — the unglamorous plumbing that lets large companies actually operate. When large language models made it possible for one person to do what used to take a team, I pivoted. Hard.
Now I build AI-native businesses and write, as I go, about what I’m learning.
