He works from product strategy and interaction design through prototyping, validation, and AI-assisted implementation. His current development workflow focuses on Claude Code and Codex. ## Selected products - [Mana Gate](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/mana-gate/index.html.md): A platform for organizing Magic: The Gathering collections and decks, combining prices, statistics, and context for every decision. Classification: Full product. - [XR Designer](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/xr-designer/index.html.md): A browser-based studio for composing interactive augmented-reality scenes and publishing them to a link or QR code—without code or a native app. Classification: Full product. - [Hospeda.ai](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/hospeda-ai/index.html.md): A direct-booking website, 24/7 AI reservation agent, and operational dashboard designed as one connected product for independent hospitality businesses. Classification: Full product. - [Dreampaper](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/dreampaper/index.html.md): A personal production app that streamlines my daily AI image-generation workflow around speed, repeatability, and high-volume creative work. Classification: Full product. ## Experiments and proofs of concept - [Mosaico](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/mosaico/index.html.md): An experimental platform for building synthetic persona panels, holding structured conversations, and surfacing early research signals before recruiting human participants. Classification: Experiment / PoC. - [Switch Club](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/switch-club/index.html.md): A social product experiment where Nintendo Switch fans can discover games, manage their library, publish game moments, and find people who play like them. Classification: Experiment / PoC. - [Kinetica](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/kinetica/index.html.md): An embodied audiovisual experiment that turns webcam-tracked movement into generative soundscapes and reactive GLSL shader fields—using the body as the instrument. Classification: Experiment / PoC. - [Wildlens](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/wildlens/index.html.md): An on-rails voxel photography experience inspired by Pokémon Snap, built to test how far AI-assisted development can take an interactive 3D experience. Classification: Experiment / PoC. - [Lumina — Hall of the Masters](https://renatoandrade.tech/work/lumina-hall-of-the-masters/index.html.md): A navigable virtual museum where visitors can explore a gallery and inspect landmark works by masters including Leonardo da Vinci. Classification: Experiment / PoC. ## Working method Renato uses a human-led, AI-accelerated product loop. The client owns context, priorities, constraints, domain knowledge, and final judgment. Renato owns framing, synthesis, product decisions, design quality, and orchestration. AI supports exploration, implementation, refactoring, production, and QA. 1. **Align — Frame the real problem together.** We begin with business context, user needs, constraints, evidence, and what cannot be compromised. Before choosing a solution, we agree on what the first version needs to prove. Output: A shared problem frame. 2. **Build — Make the first proof tangible.** I turn decisions into a working interface or product slice early. Claude Code and Codex accelerate exploration and implementation while I keep the product logic and design direction coherent. Output: A working proof. 3. **Critique — React to the real thing.** You respond to something you can see and use. Feedback becomes specific—hierarchy, copy, motion, behavior, and tradeoffs—so weak or generic ideas are removed quickly. Output: Specific decisions. 4. **Verify — Refine, test, and ship.** We check responsive behavior, accessibility, performance, and technical feasibility. Then we ship the strongest version, capture what we learned, and choose the next hypothesis. Output: Evidence for the next move. ## Services - **AI-assisted development:** I use Claude Code and Codex to turn product decisions into working software, shortening the loop between intent, implementation, and validation. - **Digital products and SaaS:** I design flows, interfaces, and systems for web and mobile products that need to balance clarity, scale, and business results. - **Prototypes and proofs of concept:** I build testable versions early, reducing the distance between a promising hypothesis and a decision grounded in real use. - **XR experiences:** I investigate interaction, ergonomics, and context for augmented reality, virtual reality, and spatial-computing products. - **AI agents and conversational experiences:** I design agent behavior, conversational flows, guardrails, human handoffs, and interfaces that make AI useful, understandable, and accountable inside a product. ## Consulting and mentoring - **XR and spatial experiences:** Product framing, interaction models, ergonomics, and technical feasibility for WebXR, AR, VR, and spatial-computing initiatives. - **Generative AI products:** Use-case definition, experience architecture, agent and prompt behavior, guardrails, and prototypes that make the opportunity concrete. - **AI-assisted development:** Practical workflows with Claude Code and Codex to improve delivery quality, shorten iteration cycles, and build team confidence.
