Accelerating YourAI-Driven Development
AI can help you build an app, but when you hit walls that cost weeks of frustration—I solve them in a single session.
About Me 👋
With over a decade of experience shipping software, I've built everything from scrappy MVPs that landed funding to enterprise systems serving millions of users. What I enjoy most is taking something complex and making it work.
I'm focused on how AI is changing development. Tools like Claude Code are core to my workflow, letting me tackle problems that used to take days in hours. I help clients leverage these tools as a genuine multiplier for what small teams can accomplish.
What sets me apart is understanding that your software exists to serve your business. Shipping the right feature matters more than perfect architecture. I help you make trade-offs intelligently—moving fast without accumulating technical debt.

Hey, I'm Jake Berg, and you're a startup—I help close the gap between ambitious goals and reality.
You need to focus on marketing and sales. I want you to know that your software is being handled so you can focus on the parts that you do best.
I focus on the future and what you will need. From scalable code to hiring a team.
Companies I've worked with
Jake helped us answer some big architectural decisions before we started coding. We were able to proceed through our first 3 months of development with a lot more confidence that we were on the right path. We appreciate Jake's guidance and continued support with one-off calls whenever we get stuck.
