Chuck Blake
Builder. AI-pilled startup operator.
Chuck Blake is a Brooklyn-based startup founder and fractional CTO who builds AI systems and developer tools. He created GetMusic.fm, builds Glance and Recall Bridge, writes the newsletter In General, and makes electronic music as Corvoco.
I’ve spent my career at startups — engineering, product, marketing, ops — building things from scratch and making them work. Most recently CTO at LEA, where I led the technical team and built document intelligence systems for enterprise wealth management.
Now I’m deep in AI. I run a multi-agent system with six AI agents across three model providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Kimi) that handle coding, deployment, PR review, and project management autonomously. It’s not a demo — it’s production infrastructure I use every day.
What I’m building:
- Glance — expectation monitoring for automated work: scheduled checks, output expectations, alerts, and remediation work items for humans or AI agents. Built in Rails, running in production.
- Recall Bridge — a hosted AI memory layer that gives every AI tool you use access to one persistent, organized brain. Auto-classifies captures using GTD and PARA concepts. In development.
- GetMusic and other music sites — tools that help independent artists promote their music on Bandcamp.
I also make electronic music as Corvoco.
I’m currently consulting on AI integration, technical architecture, and startup operations. If you’re building something and need a technical partner who’s been through it — reach out.
