I build AI agent systems, full-stack applications and interactive 3D experiences, from architecture to delivery.
Products I’m building, systems made with a team, and digital experiences. Each project explains my part in the story.

A private messenger in development, designed around conversations stored on your own devices.
ANANSI is an independent product in active development, built with Rust, Tauri and React. I defined the product, its principles and its security requirements, and I direct the build, which AI coding agents carry out from that specification under my review. End-to-end encryption and network-address protection are design requirements; the product is still being implemented and verified.
Rust / Tauri / React / TypeScript

One place to run several companies: each company's clients, projects, meetings and money, with AI agents helping keep everything moving.
I designed and built Anima to bring company operations into one place. Each workspace has its own people, clients and projects, with explicit permissions for agents. Tempo connects the project to its day-to-day work, so planning and follow-through stay in reach.

A shared task board for people and AI coding agents: what needs doing, who has it, and what comes next.
I adapted the ticketing foundation into an independent product with workspace isolation, agent claims, triage and integrations. Tempo connects to Anima through its API.
TypeScript / Next.js / Supabase
In development
A private study platform for learning and practicing AI engineering.
I built the learning experience, course structure, exercises and progress tracking, with separate learner accounts and English and Portuguese content.
React / TypeScript / Cloudflare / Supabase
Private study platform
Turn property and energy evidence into a better-informed solar decision.
I defined the solar-feasibility product and built a local evidence and review workflow for property opportunities, with controlled access and traceable handoffs.
Python / SQLite / Geospatial data
Local application in development
An AI system where software agents take a request, split it into tasks, do the work and keep a record of every step.
As co-founder, product owner and engineer, I built across IAS and its enterprise applications: orchestration, identity, deployment and operational workflows. That work also extends to ALMA, the company OS, and Lucentive Enterprise, One, Aura and Spaces. Today ias.dev, built by Lucentive, preserves an earlier engineering version of IAS and its documentation as an archive, with a short note on the product’s current direction.

The tools that let AI coding agents write code safely: reviews, tests and checks before anything ships.
I built and co-built the delivery infrastructure used at Lucentive. Reviews and CI receipts are tied to the commit being merged; isolated worktrees, ownership rules and recovery paths keep parallel work manageable.

Brazilian federal law structured for AI agents, with searchable provisions and links to the source text.
I built a pipeline that turns Brazilian federal legislation into structured provisions with stable LexML identifiers and source provenance. Akoma serves this unofficial mirror through a REST API and MCP, with keyword search and checks against secondary sources. The current dataset covers the Constitution, its transitional provisions and the Consumer Protection Code.

A marketing team made of AI agents: they turn a campaign brief into social posts, a person approves each piece before it goes out, and the results are meant to shape the next campaign.
I originated the idea and defined the concept, product structure and architecture, then managed implementation with Lucentive engineers. Loop connects campaign planning, writing, slide and video rendering, human approval and scheduled posting. Reading each post’s results for the next campaign is built; live posting is still in test mode.

I originated the idea and defined the concept, product structure and architecture, then managed implementation with Lucentive engineers. Icarus connects opportunity research, a written product specification, design, implementation and verification. Build and review feed back into each other before human testing, keeping the idea and the result aligned. Publishing has separate release requirements.

A game studio website with a playful visual identity, creature characters and a few unexpected moments in 3D.
I designed and built the ODDKIN studio website around a clear two-dimensional layout, with original characters and interactive 3D elements bringing its personality into the page. The wider project includes Blender-built creatures and experimental miniature worlds.

Game studio website
A company website you scroll through like a short film: a tangled sculpture slowly untangles as the story explains what the company does.
I translated an AI implementation company’s positioning into a visually led narrative. A custom filament sculpture carries the story, while changing camera angles, pacing and concise copy guide the visitor from the problem to the company’s offer. The experience is available in Portuguese and English.

Explore a building, step inside an apartment and understand the space before a visit.
I conceived a property showcase that connects a city map, building availability and an interactive apartment tour, wrote its brief and directed every revision; AI coding agents wrote the code and the 3D under my review. The demonstration uses a fictional developer and sample inventory.

A private room for listening to music together and chatting.
I designed and built synchronized playback, a shared queue and chat in a deliberately nostalgic web room, including reconnect and recovery behavior.

The software a company runs on: its knowledge, its work and its AI agents, connected.
As a Lucentive co-founder, I contributed product direction and engineering across the company OS, its tenant boundaries and operational workflows.

I contributed to the public experience and product surfaces. The portfolio entry represents website work, not an operating booking service.

The website that shows companies how Lucentive's AI agents would fit into their daily operations.
I built and contributed to enterprise website experiences, service presentation and engagement flows, including the earlier cinematic exploration.

Lets people hand tasks to AI agents while deciding exactly what each agent may do.
I contributed to the interfaces and engineering of the agent-delegation product, centered on identity, consent, scoped authority and revocation.

Product in development

I’m Hendril Lara, a software engineer, product builder and founder of Kanzen. I co-founded Lucentive and served as CTO, working across technical direction, architecture and product engineering.
Sometimes I build the whole thing. Sometimes I define the product and lead the people who bring it to life. Each project here makes that contribution clear.
