27 Oct 2026Our AI receptionist turned down a job. On purpose.We put a real AI receptionist on a US phone number that anyone can call. In testing, a caller said they smelled gas, and she refused to book the job. That was the right answer. Here is what Ava does, two things we had to fix, and how to call her.Build23 Oct 2026We designed 27 new looks for our site and shipped none of themPeople told us our site looked AI-made. We built 27 redesign mockups over seven rounds, rejected every one, and shipped a single light mode button. Then we found client logos quietly missing and two bugs a tester caught.Build21 Oct 2026We cut our home page in half, and it got more interestingOur home page was 26 screens long on a phone. We cut it to 14, swapped paragraphs for two short films, and found that our first film stuttered on slow phones. Here is what we cut, what we built and how we fixed it.Build19 Oct 2026Use AI Test Triage on your own repo in 5 linesOne step in your GitHub Actions workflow, after your tests.

She was right. Two days later, FamingU Flow replaces it.Build15 Oct 2026Two businesses asked for a CRM, so we built a demo they can useTwo CRM and ERP enquiries came in. Before the calls, we built a working demo with purchase orders and staff views, a short form and a privacy page.Build6 Oct 2026A second QA pass, and making our live AI demos safe to shareA deeper pass, this time also testing the demos from outside the browser, found 11 more things. All 11 were fixed the same day.Build5 Oct 2026We ran QA on our own site: 7 issues found, 7 fixedWe tested famingu.com the way we test client work. Nothing was critical, but all 7 issues were real, and all 7 were fixed the same day.Build1 Oct 2026We built a repo with 4 tests that fail on purposeWe built an example project with tests that fail on purpose, showed how accurate the AI is, misses included, and added a copy-paste step for your pipeline.Open source30 Sep 2026The smoke test is built, and there is a new self-healing demoAfter shipping a demo with a retired model, we added a daily check on the live demos.
