I'm Yiliu. I'm a designer and programmer.

I make software that helps people be better thinkers and makers. I ship products through my startup, Softspace Inc.

From 2018–2024, I went deep on spatial computing. That effort culminated in an AR productivity app called Spaceframe. Now I'm doing early product work on an AI context management system, Seedvault.

Previously: I was a research lead at Studio Olafur Eliasson; an architecture student at the Harvard GSD; an investment analyst at Morgan Stanley; and an econometrics major at Columbia.

I love making beautiful products that empower their users. You'll find a log of my writing and work below.
