Building AI that
solves real problems

Leading AI-based development projects end-to-end at Maccabi Health Services. MBA Lecturer, community builder, and maker of 10+ AI products that actually ship.

I believe in “less but better.” From ambient listening in healthcare to AI agents that handle bureaucracy — I build tools that replace complexity with clarity.

From Infantry Commander to AI Leader

From commanding infantry soldiers in the Givati Brigade to leading AI development at Israel's second-largest health fund — my path has always been about leading through complexity.

I studied Industrial Engineering at the Technion, optimized supply chains for my thesis, then spent years in consulting and project management at Applied Materials and Moore MC. In 2023, I joined Maccabi Health Services to do what I love most: build AI systems that actually ship.

On the side, I teach MBA students, lead the AI First Israel community, and build personal AI projects that solve problems for my family and neighbors.

Product-Person Fit > Product-Market Fit

Build for someone specific — yourself, your kid, your neighbor. Real problems breed real products.

🎯

Don't Be an AI Tourist

Pick 2-3 tools, go deep, ship real value. Depth beats breadth every time.

Less But Better

Simplicity is not a compromise — it's the goal. Build fewer features, let AI handle the interface.

Things I've Built

Every project started with a real problem — for me, my family, or my community.

KanbanClaw
Active
AI kanban board that thinks with you — speak, don't click
AIVoiceProductivity
A voice-first project management tool. Instead of clicking through menus, just speak: “Move the auth task to done” or “Add a bug for the login page.” AI handles the interface so you can focus on the work.
HomeTriage
Active
Voice agent for home medical triage
HealthTechVoice AI
Speak your symptoms, get an initial assessment. Built from my experience in healthcare AI — making triage accessible from home, especially for parents with sick kids at 2 AM.
Tamzit / LazyNews
Active
AI news digest — less noise, more signal, every hour
NLPTelegramNews
Monitors Israeli news channels, summarizes with AI, and delivers clean hourly digests via Telegram. Because you shouldn't need to scroll through 50 alerts to know what matters.
Gifted Game
Active
Prep app for Israel's gifted children tests — built for my kid
React NativeExpoEducation
My kid needed to prep for the Israeli gifted children exam. Existing apps were terrible. So I built one with Expo/React Native covering Stage A and Stage B with real-style questions and progress tracking.
Remindit
Active
WhatsApp bot — detects tasks in messages, creates calendar events
NLPWhatsAppAutomation
How many times have you said “I'll do it” in a WhatsApp chat and forgot? Remindit reads your messages, spots tasks and deadlines, and auto-creates calendar events.
JobSearcher
JobSearcher
Active
AI agent that hunts, tailors, and applies to jobs for you
Agentic AIAutomation
An autonomous agent that searches job boards, tailors your CV to each position, and submits applications. Proof that agentic AI can handle real multi-step workflows end to end.
Shraga
Active
Israeli benefits & discounts aggregator — the cheapest you'll find
Web ScrapingAggregation
Israelis have benefits buried across health funds, unions, credit cards, and employer perks. Shraga aggregates them all so you never miss a discount you're entitled to.
Tofes4
Active
AI vs. Israeli building bureaucracy — built for the whole neighborhood
AIGov-tech
Filing “Form 4” with Israeli building authorities is a nightmare of paperwork. I built an AI assistant to navigate the process — first for myself, then for my entire neighborhood.
Hebrew Birthdays
Never miss a Hebrew birthday — built because grandma asked
CalendarCulture
My grandmother asked me to make sure she never misses a Hebrew birthday. So I built a tool that syncs Hebrew calendar dates with your regular calendar. Simple request, simple solution.
OpenClaw
OpenClaw
Active
Open-source home AI assistant — controls ACs, shutters, everything
IoTSmart HomeOpen Source
A Telegram-based AI assistant that controls my entire smart home — ACs, shutters, lights. Integrates with Home Assistant and runs on a home server. Open source because everyone deserves a smart home.
