About PrismaHQ

Most AI tools are built by people who've never shipped a product.
Mine aren't.

I'm Antonio Mastropaolo. I have a PhD in AI, I teach computer science at a top US university, and I've published research that's been cited over 1,000 times. But none of that matters as much as this: I build things that work and sell them to people who need them.

The Short Version

Position Assistant Professor, William & Mary (Virginia, USA)
PhD AI for Software Engineering, USI Lugano (Switzerland)
Citations 1,000+ across ICSE, IEEE TSE, ACM TOSEM
Products shipped 10+ production AI tools
Teaching 7+ years of CS courses and research mentorship

Why I Build Products, Not Just Papers

In academia, you publish a paper and move on. The model sits in a notebook. The algorithm lives in a PDF. Nobody uses it.

I got tired of that. So I started shipping. Every tool on PrismaHQ exists because I took a research insight and turned it into something you can actually use:

🛡
Raffle Guard
Entity resolution research → fraud detection for sneaker raffles. Catches 26x more abuse than email dedup.
📚
Vibe & Ship
A decade of teaching CS → an interactive book + platform where you build 10 real AI products.
🔍
AI Code Audit
Code analysis research → production architecture reviews for ML pipelines, RAG systems, and agents.
📖
Bookified
Computer vision research → AI that turns your photos into illustrated storybooks.

What You Get When You Buy From PrismaHQ

You're not buying from a random developer who watched a YouTube tutorial. You're buying from someone who:

  • Has the research depth — 1,000+ citations means the global AI community has validated this work
  • Has the teaching clarity — 7 years of explaining complex things to students who demand simplicity
  • Has the shipping discipline — 10+ tools in production, not in notebooks
  • Has the academic rigor — published at ICSE, IEEE TSE, ACM TOSEM (the top venues in the field)
  • Has the entrepreneurial edge — prices products, closes deals, and handles support

"The gap between AI research and AI revenue is smaller than you think."

That's the thesis behind everything PrismaHQ builds.
