The Operator: a supervised AI engineering teammate
The Operator.
A supervised AI engineering teammate that drafts changes on your stack. It is in alpha, shipping with select engagements as it matures. Nothing it drafts reaches customers without your approval.
Alpha, shipping with select engagements
What it does, where it is today, and the bounds it runs inside.
The problem
Optimization is manual, slow, and expensive.
After a rebuild ships, the work doesn't stop: A/B tests, landing pages, email flows, SEO maintenance. Agencies bill $5K to $15K a month for it; in-house teams don't have the bandwidth.
What it is
A senior engineering teammate, on your stack.
A custom MCP server scoped to your Shopify admin. It reads your data, drafts the change, and opens it for your approval. Powered by Claude.
