Max Brinton
Operations software. monday.com, apps, and AI.
I live in Chicago and build operations software: workflows, automation, AI, and the apps around it, including CarbonApps. monday.com is usually where that work starts.
CarbonWeb started in 2016. I have been in this work since then, with a year at Micro1 in the middle. The timeline below is the rest.
Now
CarbonWeb
CarbonWeb. monday.com Platinum Partner, and Anthropic partner. I keep pushing what a monday system can do. monday.com is used by more than 250,000 companies. How those systems get designed and taught still carries patterns I set, including partners and architects who learned them from me.
Timeline
Vin & Miles
Founded RCBM Labs. On-device OCR for VIN, odometer, and stock photos. Nothing leaves the phone. On the App Store.
CarbonWeb and monday.com
Returned in 2022 and built the monday.com practice from the ground up: delivery, systems design, hiring, and CarbonApps. Platinum Partner. ~80 people, from ~5.
Micro1 and FileVine
Moontek had no product and did not want one. A product started to come together in parallel with FileVine, as they figured out they had to stay competitive and partner with larger tech companies. Micro1 now has a small product. The important part is the partnerships with frontier labs. Reportedly at a $500M gross run rate.
The Ohio State University
Started the CSE degree.
Recharge Rally
Co-founded the rally. It is still running.
CarbonWeb
Founding engineer. Employee #1.
