An AI-powered writing companion that helps you map, organize, and develop your thoughts into structured writing.
About the founder
Tim is an AI systems architect and founder of Creader.io, working across technology, cognitive research, and complex systems. With a background in High-Performance Computing from the University of Edinburgh, he previously served as Infrastructure Partnership Lead at Story Protocol and Head of DevRel at FLock.io. His work today focuses on developing new forms of cognitive research and storytelling infrastructures.
Through Creader.io, Tim is developing a narrative engine designed to help writers maintain coherence across long-form fiction. Rather than generating stories on their behalf, Creader works alongside writers to remember, organize, and develop the worldbuilding they have already imagined. During the Fellowship, Tim will continue developing Creader while exploring how AI might support the structures behind storytelling without replacing the creative vision and agency of the writer.
