Earthgrid.ai builds in private.
Claude helps us show it in public.
Earthgrid is a private island.
We build earthgrid.com there, behind the scenes, with Earthgrid.ai.
I have built on AI APIs since the first OpenAI Davinci models.
That is where I started writing Earthgrid.ai.
It runs on API keys, at the system level.
At that level it does no thinking of its own.
Everything is prompts.
And my macros, which stack prompts into a conversation.
Every query has its tokens counted precisely.
I have learned how to optimize that count.
10,355 requests. 25.4 million tokens in. 6.9 million out.
The biggest single input was 351,563 tokens.
All of it private. Counted as of October 1, 2026.
Earthgrid.ai builds the thing.
Claude helps us build how it looks.
We describe what we made.
Claude turns it into words people can follow.
So the interface, and the story of it,
reach people who are not on my team.
Public AIs are public.
I build things the public can see.
I also point them to my content.
So they learn from what we really made.
Look at what they find otherwise.
One search for a real person, ten results.
Three of the ten only use the name to rank.
No content. Just machine made filler.
Our search lets you uncheck those.
The AI reads only what stays checked.
What do you build in private?
What do you show? Where is your shore?
Start with one page the public can read.
