I build operating systems for how work actually runs — and use AI where it earns its place.

A live directory of the UK's wood-fired and outdoor sauna scene — operators, builders, and practical guides. The interesting decisions were the ones about what to leave out.

A reusable system that reads a folder of mixed documents and email, answers plain-English questions from your own material, and drafts replies in your voice. Proven across two unrelated collections without changing a line of core code.

A browser-based interactive presentation for non-technical business audiences, with working AI demos embedded in the slides. The engineering that matters is invisible: every live demo has a silent fallback, so a flaky network never becomes a failure in front of a room.

A finance dashboard I built for my own household and use daily. No database — the data layer is plain YAML files, kept local and never committed. The interesting parts are the constraints: a demo mode that can never leak real numbers, and an AI advisor that's allowed to read but never to decide.

I ran the full diagnostic chain for a solo founder repositioning a direct-to-audience personal brand: intake, cited research, a five-voice debate, three specialist reviews, and a strategy synthesis they could act on. Anonymised by design — what's shown is the shape of the work and the judgement behind it, never the contents.

A small commercial piece for a holiday-let business: their weekly linen-prep spreadsheet, rebuilt as a single offline web app that a non-technical person can't accidentally break. One HTML file, no install, no internet. The story is speed, completeness and reliability on a real business problem — not technical complexity.

A self-initiated concept: an entire alternative-folk artist — music, imagery, brand, copy and a storefront — generated end-to-end with AI, then deliberately held to one cohesive aesthetic rather than the default AI look.

Every services firm has the same problem: the evidence of past work lives in scattered documents, so every proposal re-discovers it from scratch. This tool reads credential documents in any format, extracts a consistent taxonomy from each, and makes the whole library filterable and searchable. Shown here with an entirely fictional firm's credentials.

Meeting preparation is where confident summaries quietly go wrong: a stale story reads as current, a rumour reads as fact, a marketing line reads as a credential. This internal workflow researches a company from public sources and labels every claim — verified, partly verified, inferred, or unverified — before it can reach the briefing note. Demonstrated here on a FTSE-listed company, where the labels did real work.

A passive radar, not a search tool: I'm not looking for a job, which is precisely when you stop seeing the market. Every Sunday it gathers listings through official APIs, filters them against hard constraints with the reason stated for every drop, has an AI score the survivors for honest fit, and sends a short digest to my phone.

Ideas arrive away from the desk, and friction is what kills capture. This service turns a private Telegram chat into a capture channel: text, photos and documents land as files in the workspace inbox within seconds, exactly once each, with interpretation deferred until I'm back at the desk. It has run always-on since the end of June.
