Projects

Things I've built and still run.

  1. 01

    Recipe Kit Shopify app

    Shoppable recipe cards for Shopify stores. Food brands build a recipe in a drag-and-drop editor, ingredients link straight to products, and customers add the whole list to cart in one click. 1,300+ stores, 250K+ recipes, 10M+ views.

  2. 02

    Jetson SaaS

    Support tickets go in, product decisions come out. It reads Help Scout, Zendesk or Intercom, separates the real bugs and feature requests from the noise, and files them to GitHub or Linear with the customer's own words attached.

  3. 03

    mutuals.fm Community

    Book club matchmaking for Vancouver. Tell it a few favourite books, and it matches you into a small neighbourhood book club, then introduces you by email. Free to join, $15 when your group is ready.

  4. 04

    Better Blog Comments Shopify app

    Shopify blogs get a real comment section. Threaded replies, moderation, email notifications, star ratings, spam protection. About two minutes to install.

  5. 05

    Wait.li Shopify app

    Referral-powered waitlists for Shopify launches. Customers sign up, share a link to climb the list, and get first access when stock lands.

  6. 06

    Recon Shopify app

    Finds the people copying your store. Clones, typosquatted domains, phishing pages, and pre-written DMCA notices and one-click abuse reports to shut them down. It scans 1,500+ TLDs.

  7. 07

    runclubs.ca Directory

    Canada's largest directory of free running clubs: 260+ across 9 cities, filterable by day, pace and neighbourhood. It became the place people go to find a group run. I still haven't worked out how to make it a business.

  8. 08

    Vancouver Community Directory

    40+ categories of social groups, clubs and meetups around Vancouver. I built it because this city can feel impossible to make friends in. Readers add the listings, which is what keeps it current.
