genh-product

Product strategy, broker-facing tools, and UX innovation at Gen H.

  • Voice-First Affordability Calculator: Replace form-field affordability calculator with a voice-first interface where brokers describe a case naturally and Gen H extracts structured inputs, runs existing mortgage engine logic, and returns results. Brand play as much as product play.

genh-ops

Internal operational efficiency, tooling, and automation at Gen H.

  • Automated Report Pipelines: Autonomous data-to-presentation pipeline. Nottingham Building Society (biggest funder) fully automated as of 12 Feb. Five more funders queued. Key open question: how to hand over to capital markets team via a Claude Code skill so they own it. Network/corporate and ExCo MI reports not yet started.
  • CRM Stack Migration: Replace HubSpot (~$5k/month) with Attio (CRM), Customer.io (email marketing), and Help Scout or Intercom (live chat). Contract expires April 2026 - tight timeline. Core goal is empowering the sales team with tooling that actually models the business.
  • Underwriting CLI: Conversational AI interface for underwriters to work cases through Claude Code instead of navigating six separate systems. Now anchors a broader strategic framework - three modes of AI in a business - with funding reports as the shipped Mode 3 proof point. CTO bought in, hackathon build planned, PII approval paper going to ExCo 17 Feb. The doc is evolving into the strategic communication piece for Gen H's AI approach.
  • Sales Intelligence CLI: Give salespeople the same LightDash CLI + Claude Code tooling Hal uses, so they can create bespoke, data-driven reports and presentations for broker meetings. Infrastructure already exists - this is a packaging and onboarding problem, not a build. Easier and lower-risk pilot than the underwriting CLI. Test this week with one BDM.

ventures

Side hustles, business ideas, and commercial experiments outside Gen H.

  • Speculative Web Builds for SMBs: Side hustle with James - use AI to speculatively build web pages for small businesses with bad sites, then cold-send as a sales tool with an ongoing managed service offer.
  • Multiplayer Card Game (Proximity-Based): Side project with James - mobile app using Apple Multipeer Connectivity to turn phones into a shared deck of cards. Proximity-based connection, slick animations, preset games. A deck of cards in your pocket.
  • Board Game Companion: Multi-device scoring and animated winner reveals for physical board games. Validated with a Sushi Go Party prototype. Same proximity-joining model as the card game but enhances physical games rather than replacing them.

ai-tooling

Improvements to AI-assisted workflows, Claude Code skills, and creative tooling that apply across projects.

  • Angle-First Generation for Vibe Design: Improve vibe design workflow by front-loading divergence: generate ~50 single-line angles, verify diversity and creativity via a dedicated agent, then flesh out the best 3-5 as full variants with remix and shuffle mechanics for iteration.
  • EA System Development: Building the full EA system in phases. Repo structure and brain are live (Phase 1 done). Daily calibration in progress (Phase 2). Voice capture pipeline via Cloudflare Worker + iPhone Shortcut is the next build (Phase 3). Bootstrap exit and polish to follow (Phase 4).
