Show me the annoying part
Half an hour, ideally with you doing the job while I watch. Usually enough to tell you whether it's worth fixing.
You didn't get into this to do admin.
Every business ends up with a few jobs nobody signed up for. I build small, custom tools that take those off your plate — so you can get back to the part you're actually good at.
For example
Forty invoices a month, every one a slightly different format, typed in by hand.
One spreadsheet, filled in automatically, anything odd already flagged.
A shared timesheet file half the staff forget, chased every fortnight.
Staff clock in from their phone. Payroll takes ten minutes.
Monday morning rebuilding the same report from four different places.
It's already in your inbox when you sit down.
How it works
You're only really needed for the first step.
I build something small
One tool that does one job properly. Working in your hands within weeks, then we adjust it.
You stop thinking about it
It runs quietly and you go back to your actual job. I stay reachable when something changes.
Who it's for
Businesses running on spreadsheets and goodwill.
Big enough that the admin is real, not big enough to have someone whose job is fixing it.
Working alone is the point. No overhead, no sales team, no one between you and the person writing the code.
Things I've built
Shipped and running.
Innerlog
A journaling app you talk to instead of type into. It listens and organises what you said into something worth reading back.
VIEW PROJECT →Alimony Calculator
Dutch alimony rules are hard to follow and expensive to have explained. This turns them into a calculation you can walk through yourself.

Tell me the part of your week you dread.
A few lines is enough. If I don't think it's worth building, I'll say so — that answer is free.
