AI agents in production

Agents that do the job, not the demo.

These are the agents I design, build and run in production. Each one plugs into the tools you already use and gets measured like any other part of the product.

A simulated run. The real ones log a lot more.

A simulated run. The real ones log a lot more.

What production means

  • Evals before launch and on every change
  • Guardrails, permissions and PII handling
  • A human in the loop where mistakes are expensive
  • Tracing and monitoring for every run
  • Cost and latency budgets per task
  • The right model per job: Claude, Gemini or OpenAI

Brand, product, code and growth. One team.

FAQ

Quick answers

Who is zShuck?

zShuck is Rubén Pérez Herrando, a software AI engineer and product engineer based in Barcelona, Spain. zShuck is the name I've used online for years.

What do you build?

AI agents in production on Claude, Gemini and OpenAI models, full stack products with React, Next.js, Node.js, Ruby and Python, and the growth side around them: funnels, landing pages, lead capture and websites that Google and ChatGPT can find.

What kind of AI agents can you put in production?

Customer support agents, lead qualification and sales agents, document and back-office agents, copilots inside SaaS products, content and marketing agents, and internal knowledge agents connected through MCP. Always with evals, guardrails, monitoring and a human in the loop where it matters.

Do you work on growth and conversion?

Yes. I build and improve funnels, landing pages and onboarding, wire lead capture into your CRM, set up tracking and A/B tests, and use the data to decide what to ship next.

Can you take care of design and branding too?

Yes, through packs. I work closely with product designers and brand designers, so we can take a project from brand identity and UX to build, launch and growth with one team.

What is GEO?

Generative engine optimisation: making a website easy for AI assistants to read, trust and cite. I did it for the painter Cecilia Llorca (cecillorsan.es), so people can find her through ChatGPT and not only through Google.

Can I hire you?

Yes. I take on freelance projects and collaborations, remote or in Barcelona. Email ruben@zshuck.com or use the contact form.

Which languages do you work in?

Spanish, Catalan and English.
