AI Agents & Automation | Web Developer | AI Engineer | Claude | API

Most developers will build exactly what you spec. The problem? What gets specced rarely solves the actual business problem. The gap between specification and execution is where AI projects fail. Closing that gap before writing a single line of code is how I work. I build production AI systems and full-stack platforms-> not fragile prototypes, but robust systems that handle real users, real data, and real consequences. I'm Tiago, CEO and Founder of Meerkat Coding. After 15+ years of building and launching consumer software, I now guide companies through end-to-end AI transformation. We handle the full lifecycle: from technical assessment and product design to deployment and internal team upskilling. WHAT I BUILD: - AI Voice & Chat Agents: ElevenLabs, Vapi, and Retell systems for customer service, call screening, and outbound intelligence. - Workflow Automation (n8n/Zapier/Make): Lead generation, intelligent routing, and automated reporting systems. - CRM & Business Operations: Deep integrations across Stripe, Shopify, Klaviyo, Slack, and Google Workspace. - Prompt Engineering & Training: Production-ready prompt architectures and hands-on coaching for your team. TOOLS & STACK: n8n | Zapier | Make | Claude Code | OpenAI/ChatGPT | ElevenLabs | Vapi | Retell AI | Airtable | Apify | REST APIs | Webhooks If you are building agentic systems, AI automation, or full-stack SaaS and want honest, strategic advice before committing to a build, let's talk. 🌟 Top 1% on Upwork | 🌟 Trusted in 36 Countries | 🌟 5-Star Feedback
