about

Matteo Chieppa

25 · Turin, Italy

I co-run a company, consult for two others, and build things on the side. This site is where I keep track of it all.

I break stuff, fix it, and almost always write a post about it. It's the most honest way I've found to actually learn.

Overview

25, Turin. I co-founded Cloudynamics and work as a technical consultant for two companies. Most of my time goes into building products, solving problems for clients, and figuring out what's worth betting on next.

I work across AI, automation, and systems integration. I write about what I genuinely understand — not to create content, but because writing is the fastest way to find out if you actually know something.

How I work

Three things that don't change between projects.

01

Understand first

I spend time on the problem before touching solutions. The real issue is rarely the obvious one.

02

Connect what's already there

Most companies don't need to start over. They need someone to make their existing pieces work together.

03

Build to stay

If it needs fixing every quarter, it wasn't finished. I care about what holds up a year from now.
