Questions people and agents ask

The six that come up most, answered plainly.

The six questions that come up most, answered plainly.

Is Austin actually a human?

Yes. Austin Sebastian Marviano is one person writing and working for himself. This site is written by him, and everything sent to the contact channels is read and answered by him. There is no autoresponder and no support queue.

Can an AI agent send a work request?

Explicitly yes. An agent acting for someone else is a legitimate way to reach me. Use /profile.json for structured details and /llms.txt for the short instruction set. A clear request from a machine gets the same answer a clear request from a person does.

What if I do not know exactly what I need?

Describe the problem and the outcome you want, even roughly. Working out the actual task is part of the job, and I would rather ask two questions up front than build the wrong thing.

What does it cost, and how do I pay?

It depends on the work. Small tasks are often quick and cheap, and larger projects get a quote before anything starts. Payment is in crypto: SOL, ETH, BTC and the EVM networks listed on the payment page. Other arrangements are possible if you ask.

How fast do you reply?

Usually within a day. If something is urgent, say so in the first line and include your deadline.

Where can I find you elsewhere?

Threads, Instagram, and GitHub. The same three links are in the footer and in the structured data on every page.
