Beto Moreira
Hi, I'm Beto! I'm a Brazilian-Australian Software Engineer currently building GPD Labs, an Applied AI lab inside Good Pair Days, the $40M+ ARR company I previously co-founded.
Before that, I was a Lead Engineer at Leonardo.ai when Canva acquired us in 2024 for ~$250M.
Alongside work, I’m doing a master’s in computer science at Georgia Tech, focusing on AI and robotics.
Whenever I get the chance, I like to tinker with open-source projects. Most recently, I built Preseason.ai for LLM devtool benchmarks and Widen.dev, a native macOS Postgres GUI that uses the LLM already on your Mac.
Companies and other things I built

1. Good Pair Days
ML-powered wine club with 100k members
Co-founded an ML-powered wine subscription startup in Sydney and, as CTO, built the software behind the site, app, recommendation engine and warehouse systems. Today I run GPD Labs, its applied-AI lab.

2. Leonardo.ai
Generative AI platform acquired by Canva
Lead Engineer at the Sydney generative-AI platform that went from launch to 19M+ users and 1B+ images in 18 months. I led API scaling through that growth and helped set up engineering standards, before and after the Canva acquisition.

3. Widen.dev
Open-source macOS Postgres GUI with text-to-sql
A free, native macOS Postgres client that introspects your schema, drafts SQL with Apple's on-device Foundation Model, and only runs what you approve.
-
4. Preseason.ai
LLM devtool benchmarks
A benchmarking platform that tracks which software tools AI models recommend, using frozen seasonal benchmarks so rankings stay reproducible and auditable over time.

5. Wanna Migrate
Immigration marketplace, 2013–2015
