About
> Well hi there!
Welcome to my corner of the internet: software, research, and a few experiments in physics. The black hole above is rendered in real time — click Admire to orbit it, with a little music for the journey.
I'm Tiernan Lindauer — I build things and write about them. In 2024 I founded LindauerAI, an ed-tech startup that built a dual-AI learning platform (Gyro for students, CA for teachers).
In 2026, I co-founded Lobe, a connected AI platform for senior living. It helps communities answer families across phone, text, and web, book visits, and carry conversation context into team follow-up.
Start with Why I Choose Hard Problems, then Projects and Research.
