I build products —
and the people who ship them.
Entrepreneur, technologist, and technology evangelist with 20+ years across tech, martech, and digital marketing. Founder of devBlink.ai — these days helping people and businesses explore what AI can do in their work and their everyday lives.

Two decades turning ideas into products.

I'm Kenney Jacob — often spelled Kenny Jacob — and I've spent my career at the intersection of technology and business: writing code, shaping product, working as a digital marketing consultant, and building the teams to bring it all together. Along the way I served as CTO of a venture that was later acquired.
These days much of my time goes to devBlink.ai, which I'm building so people who don't write code can still create real software — and to helping others find where AI genuinely fits in their work and their lives.
Outside of building, I write and speak, and I take an active interest in social and political questions — I try to say what I think plainly, even when it's uncomfortable. My podcast, Anthardhara, follows the undercurrents in our society that rarely get discussed. I wrote Captured, on how the gains of each technological revolution have ended up captured by a few — and I'm now writing The Right Level, on how ordinary people come to own the work, the harvest, the money and the ground.
Where I spend my energy.
