What I Build

I turn agency expertise, methods and ideas into working technology - from internal tools to proprietary products that can eventually go to market.

Sometimes the goal is to make the agency itself better. Sometimes it is to create something the agency can own, differentiate with, or sell. I publish how I work, so you can see the methods before deciding whether to work with me.

What Your Expertise Can Become

Your advantage may already exist inside the agency - in a methodology, workflow, dataset, process or idea. The opportunity is to turn it into something useful, repeatable and owned.

Make the agency better

Turn repeatable expertise and internal processes into tools that improve research, delivery, decision-making or operations. The goal is not more software. It is less friction, more consistency and less dependency on individual people.

Research tools, internal workflow systems, decision-support tools, automation, operational software.

Build proprietary IP

Turn a methodology, framework, dataset or way of working into software the agency owns - something clients can use and competitors cannot simply copy from a pitch deck.

Client-facing applications, assessment tools, proprietary platforms, methodology-driven software, data products.

Take a product to market

Turn a successful idea or internal MVP into a fully developed product, from V1 through the technical foundations needed for commercialization.

SaaS products, user accounts, billing, onboarding, analytics, integrations, multi-tenant architecture.

What the technology might look like

Depending on the problem, I build AI applications, automations, agents, APIs, MCP servers, SaaS products and conventional web applications. The technology should fit the problem, not the other way around.

Not sure what should become software yet?

Sometimes the hardest decision is not how to build something, but whether it should be built at all.

Advisory

If you know there is an opportunity but are not yet sure what should become software, I can help define the product, identify the smallest useful first version and decide where custom technology is actually justified.

AI-readability audit

For sites where machine visibility matters, I can audit what AI systems and crawlers can actually access and read, then document the gaps.

R&D and independent builds

Between client projects I build and publish small tools, research instruments and experiments. They keep me close to the technology and often become useful patterns in client work.

Measuring what the AIs actually say

A monthly instrument tracking how ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity answer the questions agency buyers ask.

A guide I wrote

Before you hire anyone - including me

What to choose in a development partner, what to demand in the deal, and the red flags that predict wasted budget. I wrote it because I've seen both sides.
