About Robby J
I am a software engineer with a Master's in Computer Science. I build AI systems and automation tools that actually ship, and I teach developers how to do the same on YouTube as Code With Robby. This site, Automate with Robby, is where all of it lives.
What I do
Most AI content is written by people reviewing tools. I write as someone shipping production code with them every day. That difference shows up in what I cover: the workflow that actually worked, the benchmark that actually matters, the tool that quietly replaced three others.
- I build software. AI systems, automation pipelines, and developer tools, some of it open source on GitHub.
- I teach. Short explainers and full tutorials on the Code With Robby channel, plus deeper work inside the AI Academy community.
- I ship products. Free tools that solve a real problem, not demos.
Products I have built
- OpenFlow: free, open source voice dictation for macOS. Hold a key, speak, and your words land at your cursor. Runs on device, so nothing you say leaves your Mac.
- Recording Studio: a recording studio in a browser tab. Screen plus camera, green screen keying, 4K, editor ready exports. Your footage never leaves your machine.
- 24+ free browser tools: mic test, webcam test, typing speed test, AI cost calculators, and more. All client side, no signup.
What I write about
The blog has 160+ posts across three lanes: plain-English AI and machine learning explainers (what a token is, how backpropagation works, why transformers won), AI model news and comparisons as releases land, and practical build tutorials for agents and automations.
Work with me
I take on a small number of client engagements: 1-on-1 AI consultations, AI automation audits, and custom website builds that are fast and search-ready from day one.
