Christian Spana

I’m Christian Spana, known online as lukaswarce.

I build technology products and startups at the intersection of artificial intelligence, software and business.

My background combines software engineering, product development, entrepreneurship and applied research.

Right now I’m building Chaucheros and experimenting with how AI agents and people can work together to execute tasks and goals.

Here I document what I build, what works, what fails and what I learn along the way.
