Manuel Benitez

I'm CTO at gildi, a portfolio management platform for GPs and LPs. I built it from scratch. Before this I co-founded Coda (web3 music royalties on-chain), worked at Labrys, and taught full-stack at Develhope. Seven years shipping production code across fintech, web3, and AI.

I spent years traveling the globe, from New Zealand to Japan through Austria and Spain, then kept going through Andorra, Argentina, Indonesia, and Australia. I documented the whole journey in A Digital Scrapbook, a personal archive of film photographs from the road.

Currently based in Berlin.
