Selected Work — Shipped Products
Middleman Two-sided sales marketplace
2026
middleman-lime.vercel.app
  • Shipped a marketplace connecting companies with independent sales reps, where the platform acts as paying agent and escrows commissions through Stripe.
  • Built the compliance spine: contractor-classification safeguards, per-state geo-gating, e-signed agreements, and commission terms frozen at signature so later edits cannot change what a rep is owed.
  • 14 migrations with row-level security; 92 automated tests including 20 adversarial cases from an independent reviewer.
Next.js 16 · TypeScript · Supabase/PostgreSQL · Stripe
The Loom Autonomous lead-generation engine
2026
the-loom-gold.vercel.app
  • Daily crawler that finds local businesses with no real web presence, researches and scores each, and emails a ranked packet at 7:15 AM.
  • Tracking 97 actionable leads against a $529,675 pipeline, with automatic takedown of expired previews.
  • Five production website templates, each with its own typographic and color system.
Python · Google Places API · Supabase · GitHub Actions · Next.js
Blast Studio Game platform and creator tools
2026
  • Turned a single browser game into a platform: self-hosted subject cutout, brush mask editor, content editor, per-version leaderboards, marketplace, and admin review queue.
  • Delivered the iOS build to App Store Connect with no physical test device, archiving unsigned and signing at export with an Admin-scoped API key.
JavaScript · MediaPipe · Vercel Blob · Capacitor (iOS + Android)
ElijahBot OS Personal knowledge and operations command center
2026
elijahbot-os.vercel.app
  • Command center over a 441-node knowledge graph: eight stations, command palette with voice, PWA install, and a 7:30 AM briefing email.
  • Nightly job re-ingests the graph, scores its health, and writes a gaps file identifying what the knowledge base is missing.
  • Paired with a semantic recall layer serving ~200-token chunks so retrieval stays cheap at scale.
Next.js · TypeScript · Node ingest pipeline · Vercel Cron · Claude API
Boyfriend Camera Computer-vision photography application
2026
boyfriend-camera.vercel.app
  • Camera app whose live viewfinder runs through a WebGL color-grading shader, so photos are composed with the final look already applied.
  • On-device scene analysis reads luminance, color cast, and edge orientation to suggest and place a pose; three.js renders lit 3D mannequin guides in-frame.
  • Non-destructive editor: curves, 8-channel HSL, three-way wheels, radial and linear masks, and video grading.
WebGL/GLSL · three.js · MediaPipe · IndexedDB · PWA
Wholesale Engine Real-estate acquisition pipeline
2026
  • Parses county tax-delinquent PDFs by word coordinates, enriches against a 279,000-record assessor GIS layer, prices by maximum allowable offer, matches a buyer CRM, and emails a daily packet.
  • Ethical exclusions encoded in the pipeline: sources prohibiting scraping are refused, and estate-owned parcels are held for human review.
Python · SQLite/Supabase · ArcGIS · pytest
Outreach Engine Compliance-gated outreach automation
2026
  • Four-tier risk classifier: lowest tiers send automatically, sensitive tiers draft for human review, highest tier is never drafted.
  • Hard CAN-SPAM gates, append-only suppression list, fail-closed blocklist, and a sticky hard-stop on bounce spikes. 22-check safety suite.
Python · Gmail API · JSON policy layer · pytest
Fellowship of the Round 3D multiplayer arena game
2026
  • Seven playable species with distinct ability kits, a 131-card stacking upgrade pool, PvE encounters, and 12-player online multiplayer across three maps.
