“What does it save me in time?”
The job still gets done. Nobody does it. Whatever your team spends on copying between systems, chasing a reply or retyping the same order comes back to them — and the work starts at 2am instead of nine.
I build the thing that while you sleep.
Every business has jobs that eat hours and go wrong when somebody is tired — reading, sorting, filing, chasing, answering. I build software that does those jobs overnight, the same way every time, so the hours go back to the work that actually needs a person. Websites, apps and games as well.

Why bother
Three questions, and the honest answers.
No jargon and no percentages I have not measured in your business. This is simply what changes.
“What does it save me in money?”
You stop paying salaried hours for work that is copy, paste and check — and you stop hiring another person to keep up with volume. Growing costs you less than it did, because the admin no longer grows with the orders.
“What does it save me in mistakes?”
Software does not get tired at six o'clock. The same check runs the same way every time, so the wrong figure, the missed email and the order typed twice stop happening — and when something genuinely is unusual, it stops and asks rather than guessing.
And it keeps working when your best person is on leave, which is usually the week it is needed most.
While the office is shut
Eight hours of admin, done before you open.
This is an illustration rather than a live feed, but it is the shape of it: the jobs somebody would otherwise spend the morning on, already finished when they walk in — and the one thing that needed a decision waiting on the desk.
What I build
Six ways to stop paying people to do what software should.
Most jobs start with one process that is quietly costing you a day a week. You can hire me for one piece or the lot.
Work that happens without anyone doing it
It reads what came in, sorts it, files it, and puts the one thing that needs your judgement in front of you. It does that at 2am, on a Sunday, and on the day your best person is off sick.
A second pair of hands for you
Something that knows your calendar, your files and how you word things, and has the reply drafted before you have opened the message. You read and send instead of writing from nothing.
Help inside the apps you already use
Ask in WhatsApp or Slack and get the answer or the job done there. No new system for your staff to learn, no extra login, nothing new to remember to check.
Answers for customers, day and night
Customers get a straight answer at midnight instead of waiting until Monday. It answers only from what your business actually knows, passes the hard ones to you, and will never make up a price or a date.
Websites
Fast, and built to keep working without a monthly fee to stay online. Nothing breaks the week some plugin stops being maintained, because there are no plugins.
Apps and games
A new internal tool, or somebody else's half-finished app taken over and made to work. I am happy to inherit a mess and finish it.
How it goes
Four steps, and no surprises in any of them.
01
You tell me the job
A few sentences about the business and what the thing has to do. You get an honest answer on whether it is worth automating at all — sometimes it is not.
02
A fixed price
Scope and cost in writing before anything starts. The number you agree is the number you pay, however long it takes me.
03
You see it running
Not slides or a demo video. A working link you can open yourself and try, updated as it goes.
04
It becomes yours
Your hosting, your accounts, your code. If you and I never speak again it keeps running, and nothing is locked to me.
Work
Things you can open right now.
No mock-ups. Every one is live on somebody's real hosting and you can open it yourself. Each is taken apart on What I Build, along with what a workflow actually does between a job arriving and it being finished.

Less manual work
write-up pending
Six businesses, less manual work
Six businesses now have a job doing itself that a person used to do by hand. What each one was, and what it gave them back, is still to be written up — and no client is named here without their permission first.
Tell me what is eating your week.
One paragraph is plenty: what the business does, which job is eating the hours, and roughly when you need it sorted. You get a straight answer on whether it is worth doing, and a fixed price before anything starts.

No call needed to get a price. If it is not worth automating, I will say so rather than sell you something.
