AI for speed. Experience for judgment.
Agents can write most of the code now. The hard part is still deciding what to build, what to throw away, and what will hold up in production. That’s the part I do, while the agents do the heavy lifting.
- AI-assisted product builds, designed and reviewed by a senior engineer
- Prototype to production: hardening AI-generated and vibe-coded apps
- AI and agent integration in existing products
- Architecture reviews, technical audits, and project rescue
- AI-assisted workflows your team can rely on
- Fractional tech lead
Ways to work together
03Experience
Twenty years of shipping.
I’m Mike Robinson, and Gainstage is my studio. What follows is the short version; the full work history is on LinkedIn.
I’ve been building software for over 20 years, across fintech, pharma, events, and SaaS products. Most recently I’ve been leading web development at a creative studio, building web apps, interactive experiences, and internal tools for large enterprise tech clients. I’ve led teams, freelanced solo, and shipped everything from customer-facing platforms to the back-office tools that keep a business running.
AI makes building fast. I make sure what gets built is worth keeping. If that sounds like what you need, let’s talk.
Based in London, Ontario. Working with clients anywhere.
04Contact
Got an app idea? Let’s talk it through.
Tell me what you want to build and who it’s for. A rough idea is plenty, and so is a prototype you’ve already started. I’ll reply with my take on scope, approach, and the quickest sensible path to something real people can use.
The form comes straight to me, or you can email me directly.
