About

A personal, self-directed practice

DharmaRoads Studio is not a company or an agency. It's hands-on AI engineering — applying design, accessibility, and research skills built at AWS and American Express to full-stack, self-directed builds outside a day job. The goal is to deepen technical fluency in AI-assisted product patterns and stay genuinely current with how people are learning to work alongside AI. It's a sandbox for learning by shipping real things, not a studio pitching for clients.

Philosophy

How the work gets made

  • Good design earns trust before it asks for anything.
  • Talk to real people, then trust the data — not personal taste.
  • Accessibility is foundational, not an afterthought — it's the right thing to do, and search algorithms reward it too.
  • Restraint is a feature: knowing what not to include.
  • Move first, refine as you go.

PolicyGap

policygap.insure

PolicyGap reads a real insurance policy — a photo or pasted text — and translates it into a plain-language coverage summary: what's covered, what's not, the deductible, and how to file a claim, plus a plain-language read on whether the coverage looks adequate.

It's an education tool, not a lead generator. No agent referrals, no policy recommendations, no upsell. Not a substitute for financial or legal advice.

Every field in the summary carries a confidence signal — high confidence versus please verify — so the output reads as a starting point with visible provenance, not an authoritative verdict.

PolicyGap is live and gathering its first users and feedback.

In development

Doom Pile Destroyer

iOS · computer vision + AI

An iOS app that turns a photo of a messy pile into individually segmented, listing-ready images, with structured data exports formatted for eBay, Etsy, Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, and Mercari.

It's paired with a behavioral-UX track for anyone who struggles to initiate tasks: shame-free 60-second timers, gamified badges, and before/after visual tracking — designed around starting, not finishing.

Doom Pile Destroyer is in active development and getting released to beta soon.
