Today I’m posting an interview with Michael Jelly. Michael is a solo developer who built Omnipilot - Autocomplete and in-context generation everywhere on macOS.

These interviews are not so much to promote the products or businesses but instead, the people behind them.

Michael is based in the UK and has shipped several indie products over the years.

There’s a lot of talk on how AI can make people so much more productive and even mentions of the first ‘$Bn company of one’ being enabled because of it. While that may be a stretch for now, I want to highlight people who are much more efficient by using AI.

Michael is a great example of that—as you’ll see below.
