Lucas Botbol Agusti

Born in Buenos Aires, building in Austin, Seoul this fall. CS at UT Austin, previously an SWE intern at PayPal, growing Texas Blockchain. I build software that takes tedious work off people's hands, and write essays about everything else.

Built

2026 · In production

Patients book, move and cancel their own appointments by texting the clinic's WhatsApp in plain Spanish. No menus, no phone tree.

Live at Centro Médico CEPEM in Buenos Aires and in clinics across seven countries. It never diagnoses or recommends medication. Writing to a real clinic's calendar is the part that took a summer.

2026 · Live

A marketplace with two kinds of listing: what people are selling, and what people are trying to buy. A want and a sale meet in the middle and lock in.

Running on the Austin ticket scene first: ACL weekends, formals, Halloween. Preset categories and structured browsing instead of a feed you have to scroll.

PayPal 2026 · Internship

wa-slack 2026 · In production

A WhatsApp inbox that lives inside Slack. A customer message arrives as a thread in a channel the support team already has open, and the reply goes straight back out to WhatsApp.

WhatsApp
Slack

One thread per ticket, one channel per company, and a dashboard for whoever is working the queue. Built at Texarg, carrying real conversations.

Texarg 2022 · Running

Custom automation for local businesses: appointment reminders, lead routing, document processing, billing. I map where a business is losing hours, then build the thing that stops it. Not templates.

Writing

Mostly religion and political philosophy. Class essays I liked enough to publish.

Is gender inequality justified by God, or has it been misinterpreted for millennia?

Idolatry, Truth, and Religious Boundaries 30 Jul 2026

Could there be a logical reasoning for the greater reconciliation between the Abrahamic practitioners, or even all religions?

Abundance of Freedom, Poverty of Property 28 Jul 2026

The State of Nature offers immense abundance in freedom. However, this freedom is worthless as it doesn't allow prosperity and property to gain value.
