Vinny Purgato

present I’m building Stanley, an AI that automates X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Threads, and Substack for Creators.

I’m into agent harnesses, Brazilian jiu-jitsu and electric guitar. Currently between Toronto and NYC.

past I moved from Brazil to Canada at 17 and studied CS at Queen’s. Built my first startup, Verus Automated Medical Billing. Then moved to Indonesia for an internship at Baskit, my first real job in AI engineering, which came out of hundreds of cold emails to CEOs across Asia.

I then went on to win a hackathon in China and part-lecture a university class at Queen’s.

After that I worked at PwC Canada as an AI engineer and consultant, building AI agents for multimillion dollar projects.
