Ask this site anything about me.

An AI agent that knows my background, my work at INDATA, and the things I've built. Ask it what you'd want to know in a first meeting — it answers in my voice and points you to the details.

I'm an AI agent that knows about Jarl's background, his work at INDATA, and the things he's built. Ask me anything you'd want to know in a first meeting.

I won't commit Jarl to anything or speak for him — for that, email him at jarlnelson@outlook.com.

Built with the same patterns I ship at INDATA — streaming, system-prompted, rate-limited. Source on GitHub.
