Juan Manuel Medina — Jota · Product & Software Engineer

YOU CAN'T PROMPT THIS.

I build AI products for a living. This portfolio? Written by hand, line by line. Since 2019 I've shipped software that over 1.5 million people actually use — across banking, energy, and my own startups.

Surfari.cl — carpooling network, live app

Surfari — carpooling

A carpooling network I built — still live today, matching drivers and riders on the same route so they split the cost of the trip. Bootstrapped, and growing month over month.

Aloha — your people, streaks and who to call next
Aloha — auto summary, highlights and reminders after each call

Aloha — stay close to your people

Call the people you love from your browser. Aloha records, transcribes and summarizes each call into notes — health, events, plans — then hands you the highlights, reminders for next time, and streaks so a bond never cools off. Built with Twilio, Whisper and GPT.

VO₂ — intra-workout nutrition landing

VO₂ — eat better while you train

A family project I build with my little sister — a triathlete. Nutrition guided by your VO₂max test: upload your Excel and VO₂ tells you what, how much and when to eat mid-workout — grams of carbs per hour by intensity.

04 — About

I'm Juan Manuel Medina — Jota.

Half product manager, half engineer. For the last few years I've shipped software people actually use — across banking (Santander), energy (Copec), and my own startups (Surfari, LazyBenchmarks, and a few nights-and-weekends builds).

Today I lead product for AI agents at AgendaPro (YC W21), building AI that does real work for real businesses. Taste, judgment, knowing which problem is worth solving — you can't prompt that. This site is a small reminder.
