I’m Doug. I build AI-powered apps and automations that turn everyday business problems into useful software.

A missed inquiry.
A better next step.

THE STARTING POINT

Good leads don’t arrive
in tidy spreadsheets.

A name, a need, a timeline. The useful details are already here. The next step is to put them in order.

02 / FROM THE WORKBENCH

Ideas with some substance.

Personal projects and product explorations. A look at how I think and what I build.

CAPTURE THE MOMENT. KEEP THE CONTEXT.

Good conversations.
Worth remembering.

03 / YOUR BUILDER

A builder’s mindset.
An operator’s perspective.

My background is in hands-on operations, where good systems have to work in the real world. I bring that same approach to software: understand the problem, build something useful, and pay attention to the details.

I use AI in my development process and take hands-on responsibility for the code and the result. You work directly with the person building your project.

Got a “what if”?
Let’s build it.

A better workflow. A new product. An idea that deserves a first version.
