I'm Aaron McIntire. I've spent sixteen years running a national daily broadcast. I host it, engineer it, produce it, and cut it myself. Somewhere in there I taught myself to build AI tools that handle the grunt work. So now I do both: the show, and the machine that makes the show easy.
Four roles that rarely live in one person: talent, engineer, producer, post. The rare part is that they also come with real AI fluency.
Studio setup, signal chain, recording and editing pipeline, distribution that actually works. The technical spine of a show, built by someone who runs one every day.
The same systems that cut two hours off my own post-production every day: transcription, summaries, metadata, publishing. Built around how you actually work, not dropped in from a template.
Real software, shipped. I use AI as a build partner to get production apps out the door fast, with proper backend and payments built in. Not prototypes that die in a demo. Live products people actually use.
Practical automation without hiring an enterprise vendor. If some task is eating your week, I'll tell you straight whether a machine can take it off your plate, and build the thing if it can.
My wife Bella is an L&D nurse who wrote six books on pregnancy and postpartum. I built her the app to put it all in people's hands, and it's not a toy. Real backend, real payments, live on the App Store today.
I built it with AI as my build partner. That's the whole point: I direct AI to ship production software, not demos. If you've got a product idea, this is what I can do with it.
Not a pivot into media. Sixteen years in it, at a national level, doing every job in the building.
There aren't many people who can host a show, run the board, produce it, and cut it themselves. There are even fewer who then go build the software that does half of it for them. I'm one of them.
I run a national daily broadcast that reaches about 100,000 people, and I host my own show on top of it, 600-plus episodes so far.
A few years ago I got tired of losing hours to the same repetitive post-production, so I built my way out of it. The tools I use every morning are the ones I'll build for you. Not a pitch deck. The actual stuff, running before sunrise.
For the person with a real arc, the one whose life already holds the mission. Not a ghostwritten memoir, but a broadcast-quality record of who you are and what you built, produced by the engineer and booker you keep on retainer. You show up a couple times a month and talk. I do everything else.
Structured as a one-time foundation build followed by a monthly retainer, scoped to the person. Every Chronicle is different, so the work is quoted after we talk.
Enquire about a Chronicle →A show you want to launch. A workflow eating your week. A life worth getting on the record. Tell me what you're after and I'll give you a straight answer on whether I'm the right guy to build it.
Start a projectIt comes from the Gaelic of the Scottish Highlands, out of Argyll in the old kingdom of Dál Riata. The Mac an tSaoir were hereditary craftsmen: the ones who built the bridges, the boats, the houses. A family of builders. It's what the name has meant for a thousand years, long before it meant me.
I've always liked that the work I do and the name I carry say the same thing.
And I know the most famous Carpenter's Son of all: Jesus. I try to build the way He did. Honestly, with my hands, and to last.
