AI motion graphics for Hebrew short-form video

Turns a Hebrew talking-head video into a finished short with explanatory motion graphics timed to the exact word being said. Whisper speech-to-text (an ivrit.ai Hebrew model) gives per-word timings, Claude reads the transcript to decide what to draw and writes each animation as code, and YuNet face detection keeps graphics clear of the speaker. Runs on CPU with no GPU, with a web editor that composites the graphics live over the video.

Hebrew mortgage-advisory platform for a live finance business

Right-to-left Hebrew platform where borrowers answer a branching questionnaire and get a scored assessment, a document portal and a paid mortgage-mix recommendation. A GPT-5.1 agent with structured outputs (strict JSON schema) splits the variable-rate tracks inside deterministic guardrails, with a rule-based fallback and versioned prompts tested in an admin simulator. FastAPI and Supabase Postgres, with payments, CRM sync and ~800 tests.

AI tax platform, VLM extraction + RAG chatbot

The AI tax platform where I led full-stack. A VLM engine converts multilingual tax forms into structured U.S. tax data, LLM-powered assistants automate support and tax workflows for customers and internal teams using RAG over vector search (LangChain + FAISS), and a tax optimization engine analyzes financial data to find savings. Also improved platform performance by 40%.

Autonomous AI news publisher for LinkedIn

Every morning it pulls headlines from 10 RSS feeds and sends them to Telegram. For each one I approve, Claude writes the LinkedIn post and a local Z-Image Turbo diffusion model (run through ComfyUI, with OpenAI image generation as fallback) illustrates it. A second tap publishes it to the company page through the LinkedIn API.

Stops double-redeemed coupons at Pinat HaOfe bakery

Sellers photograph the customer's coupon screen as they already did, and the photo itself becomes the redemption. Google Vision OCR returns every word with its coordinates, a label-proximity algorithm picks the coupon code out of up to 16 competing numbers on the receipt, and a burn list answers with a green or red tone in under a second. Offline queue, manager dashboard with duplicate diagnostics, CSV export.

Bilingual parimutuel betting pool (play-money)

A Hebrew-RTL + English betting pool where friends spend free credits predicting a baby's gender, birth date, weight and more. Each market is a parimutuel pot split among the closest guesses, with all credit-minting locked down in Postgres Row-Level Security and SECURITY DEFINER functions behind an append-only ledger.
