Hi, I'm Frank / Yichen Xu 👋

AI-native Builder · Trained as an Architect · Shanghai


🧑‍💻 About Me

I build small AI tools and things you can open in a browser. Most start from a problem I ran into myself: typing in two languages, keeping an eye on a usage limit, fitting furniture into a real room. The sweet spot is where a general model is too dumb and a real product is too much.

Before that I spent three years as an architect, trained at Columbia GSAPP: public buildings, urban renewal, competitions. It taught me to care about how a thing actually gets made, not only how it looks on paper.

Currently working around: AI-native design workflows · Generative visualization · Web 3D


🛠️ Projects

Cove Home 落间 · try it → Custom shoe racks in three steps: snap your entryway, AI lays a design over the photo, pick materials and save with a price estimate.

Quill 落笔 Offline voice typing for Windows: speak messy English or Chinese, get clean text at your cursor. Whisper + Qwen3 via Ollama, fully local.

Claude Usage Rings Live 5-hour and weekly usage rings above the prompt in the Claude desktop app, plus an optional Windows tray icon.

The Surveyor's Cabin · walk in → A log cabin in a northern forest you can walk into, in the browser. Day/night, seven weathers, three.js, no build step.
