Founder of the Berpiztu initiative and independent AI alignment researcher. I believe AI should work from values and character, not from constraints alone, and I build both the research and the tools around it.
- Virtus: AI alignment research, values instead of constraints. Paper: doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21127304.
- Virtus Labs: reproducible experiments and benchmarks that test Virtus against real models, to produce evidence, not just claims.
- WSLC AI Agent: a local agent and MCP server for Microsoft's WSLC containers, with a web dashboard, Windows and Android clients, and a skill for AI agents.
- KeyPlus: the keys a phone's keyboard lacks (Esc, Tab, Ctrl, Alt, the arrows…) for a terminal, an SSH app or a web editor, as a strip above any keyboard or as Berpiztu AI Keyboard, for any Android and for a headset (Galaxy XR).
- security-watch: every library my projects use, checked every day against the known vulnerabilities.
- Self-taught: writing business software since I was fourteen.
- Joined Microsoft in 1992, as its first consultant in Spain, in the early days of development on Windows.
- Built Irati, the first ERP for Windows in Spain (1995), and started in the cloud in 2008.
- Founded and ran three companies.
Working on AI alignment and safety, and open to research collaboration.
