Aleksandar Kolov · Freelance developer · Skopje, CET, remote
Agents that work on your real data, Solana apps for people who have never owned a wallet, and prototypes you can put in someone’s hands. One person from first sketch to shipped.

Four ways to work with me. Pick the one closest to your problem and we'll shape the rest on a call.
Your team copies data into ChatGPT all day because the AI can't reach your systems.
Your users quit at 'connect wallet', or you want AI agents to pay for your API.
You have a device idea and a sketch, and need something real to test or pitch.
Your attendees spend the whole event talking to the people they came with.
Recent builds across AI agents, Solana and hardware, newest first. The other 6 are listed below.
Proves/03 Hardware prototypes
TIDAL on Windows had no remote worth using, so I built two. A phone app that feels native, and a palm-sized touchscreen that lives on the DAC: cover art, queue, search and the whole library, always awake, one tap from the next track. Private by design, it runs on my home network with no public demo.

Proves/03 Hardware prototypes
Five painters, each a ~9k-neuron slice of a real fruit-fly connectome in portable C, sized for an ESP32-S3 and e-ink frames. Visitor votes become dopamine, so each fly’s style drifts with its audience: over 2,600 paintings each in the first 112 hours.
IN DEVELOPMENT
Open source · MIT
Relatives build their own branches and combine trees face to face by QR code: no server, no accounts, no internet. Grown from a private app that holds a 3,420-person family tree, now open source.

Proves/02 Solana/01 AI agents
Nothing extra to buy and no key at rest. Every signature needs a tap of your contactless card and your fingerprint; the key exists in memory for under half a second, then it’s wiped. Live on Solana mainnet, with capped budgets for AI agents.

Proves/04 Event game/02 Solana
Attendees tapped NFC badges to meet each other in Prilep. Ten meetings earned an onchain card in a wallet they never had to set up.

Proves/03 Hardware prototypes
A belt-drive e-bike conversion taken from a Fusion 360 model to road testing, with a Wi-Fi bridge to the motor controller and its own handlebar dashboard.
ROAD-TESTING

KOReader plugin for a jailbroken Kindle. One tap pulls full-text AI and tech news plus Macedonian outlets into a single morning document, alongside a reading list, Reddit feeds, tasks synced both ways with Google Drive, and an LLM assistant.
PERSONAL TOOL
Garmin has no personal API, so this keeps a local SQLite archive of Garmin Connect data through one rate-limited ingest, then exposes it to Claude as an MCP server and writes it into Obsidian daily notes. When the unofficial endpoints break, only future data is lost, never the archive.
PERSONAL TOOL
Organized the regional Solana Arena Kick-off hackathon in Ohrid (April 2026) under the Blockchain Skopje banner. Programme, venue, team formation, and the AI × Civic blueprint that framed the event's challenge tracks.

ERASMUS+ FUNDED
VisitGrowing the Solana builder ecosystem in Macedonia alongside Ena Popovska, connecting local developers, founders, and builders with the wider Superteam network. Macedonia hasn't had much of a Web3 footprint. That's what we're changing.
AI integration and blockchain development. LLM tooling, Solana ecosystem work, full-stack on modern frameworks. Sitting at the edge of where those two technologies actually meet in production, which is messier and more interesting than most writeups suggest.
My own studio, running for nearly 20 years. Clients from early-stage startups to established companies. Full-stack web apps (React, Next.js, Supabase), physical product design (Fusion 360, 3D printing), IoT prototypes, Arduino builds, UI/UX across all of it. No fixed discipline by design: the stack changes with the problem.
Contract. Led UI/UX work on complex product design challenges. Short engagement, high output. Worked inside a structured design system from research through to handoff.
Product reviews, technical breakdowns, and field findings for one of the leading FPV gear retailers. The kind of content that comes from actually flying the stuff, not just reading the spec sheet.
Ran a hands-on workshop covering 3D modeling and printing fundamentals, from CAD basics through to a finished printed object.
Built interactive prototypes for game concepts, translating early ideas into playable, testable builds fast. Working with a games studio takes a different speed and a different tolerance for iteration than standard product work.
Led the UI work for the TLM department: design direction and execution on enterprise product surfaces.
Two roles in parallel. As Creative Director, oversaw the visual and product direction across client work. As Web Design Instructor, ran a full professional program covering Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash, and CMS publishing, teaching students to go from concept to live site independently.
Long-running contract producing web design work across a wide range of client briefs.
Aleksandar Kolov · Skopje, North Macedonia
I've run my own studio since 2006, building web apps, product design and 3D-printed hardware for startups and established companies. Today I build AI agents and Solana apps, and represent Superteam Balkan in Macedonia.
Above: talking Solana + AI at Base42, Skopje
TIDAL's desktop app has no remote that works for my setup. So I built my own: a phone web app first, then a small touchscreen that sits on the DAC.
A tools retailer, 8,106 articles in Collab ERP and one agent with read access. What it found during the build, and the questions an MCP server will let the owner ask.
A developer quietly compressed a full workday with agents. The agent era's bottleneck isn't speed. It's trust.
A developer asked an agent to reorganize a database. It was gone in 9 seconds. Every plan needs the postmortem your agent should have written first.
Distillation is how the industry copies frontier models. It's also how you can build your own, legally, for a fraction of the cost.
"Design loops that prompt your agents." 2.2 million people saw it. Almost nobody could explain it. The builders who can are staring at their billing dashboard.
The staffing agency is 5,000 years old. AI didn't kill it, it rebranded it. Welcome to Humans as a Service.
Four kinds: AI agents and MCP integrations, Solana and x402 builds, hardware and IoT prototypes, and the Meet Everyone game for events. Projects that cross two of those are where I am most useful, because that is where most teams get stuck.
It depends on scope, so I don't publish prices. After a short call you get a written scope and a quote before any work starts.
Me. No account manager and no handoff to a junior. You talk to the person writing the code.
Yes. I'm in Skopje on Central European Time and work remotely with teams anywhere.
You do, once the project is paid. You get the source, the files and the accounts.
