Vibe Code Production-Grade AI
Products in Weeks — Not Months
25+ years building mission-critical enterprise systems. Now I use Claude and AI agents as my primary co-pilot to ship full platforms (mobile + web + payments + analytics) 3–5× faster — without sacrificing quality.
In the 2026 AI Wild West, most companies are stuck in endless pilots. I help you ship real, working products before your competitors even finish planning.
Navigating the 2026 AI Wild West
Most companies are burning 6–12 months and hundreds of thousands on AI pilots that never see the light of day.
I do the opposite. I vibe code full, production-ready platforms in weeks using Claude as my main development partner — then harden them with the same enterprise architecture I've used on systems serving 500K+ patients and nationwide networks.
Startup velocity with zero quality compromise. That's the new standard.

Building the Future
I'm Derek Kaneshiro—a software engineer with 25+ years of experience who's gone all-in on AI-powered development. Not as a buzzword, but as a fundamental shift in how great software gets built.
My background spans orthopedic healthcare APIs serving 500K+ patients, veterinary platforms powering 750+ hospitals, and nationwide digital signage networks. I've led teams of 30 engineers and architected systems still running a decade later.
Now I'm proving what's possible when deep experience meets AI-first development. In the last 6 months, I've shipped three production-grade platforms—each with mobile apps, web portals, APIs, payments, and analytics. That's not hype. That's the new reality.
I help companies who want that same velocity without sacrificing quality.
