The Bitbew lab — AI and automation prototypesWhat we make when nobody is paying
Unpaid, unfinished, and the honest place to look if you want to know how we think. Nothing here is a product and none of it is client work — it is what the studio does with its own time, and where we find out how far an idea can go.
01/Prototypes
Running, rough edges included
Each one with the state it is really in, the engineering worth talking about, and what it is built with.
DevDecoded Reels
Prototype
Software that writes a short video, records the voiceover, renders it and posts it to Instagram without anyone touching it.
Prototype · runs end to end · known rough edges
The AI only writes the words. It fills in a fixed set of scenes and never controls layout or timing, so a bad response cannot produce a broken video.
The voiceover is generated first and the video is timed around it, so the words and what you see never drift apart.
The n8n workflow: pick a topic, write the script, hand it to the renderer. It stays deliberately simple, because the heavy lifting happens in the Remotion project afterwards.
The reels on this account came out of the pipeline. It is a prototype — some scenes are mistimed.
InterviewSim
Prototype
Paste in a job description and your CV, then sit a spoken interview with an AI that asks follow-up questions when your answer is vague.
Working locally · first deploy in progress
A live voice conversation: it listens while you talk, replies out loud, and lets you cut in mid-sentence the way a real interviewer would.
Nothing is tied to one AI provider. Moving to a different model is a change to a config file, not a rewrite.
Every answer is marked against a scoring guide afterwards, and your weakest ones come back rewritten.

02/On the bench
Not working yet
Named honestly as work in progress. No claims and no dates.
A trading bot that checks a sector from several angles before it makes a move.
A personal assistant that carries the task out rather than describing it — phone calls, bookings and messages, on both desktop and phone.
Why a studio builds for itself: because the first time we solve a hard problem should not be on a client’s budget. What we learn here — keeping an AI step from breaking a pipeline, timing video to a voice, swapping model providers without a rewrite — is what we bring to paid work.
