A novel isn’t just a document. It’s chapters, characters, notes and ideas you don’t want to lose. I built Writer’s Room to give that work a home: a workspace bringing manuscript organisation and story planning together, with local-first storage, backups and flexible AI connections. The question behind it: how can a tool help a writer return to a story without losing the thread? Explore the case: https://contra.com/p/7OqB6Aks-writers-room-ai-powered-writing-workspace

Don’t be the scribe. Be the printer. 📜
Day 12 of my “Let’s build you, with AI” series: a 15-second Vox-style explainer on how the printing press, and now AI, changed who gets to create.
What’s inside:
• Story-first scriptwriting with a cold open, a twist and a quotable ending
• An editorial paper-collage look: cutouts, halftone dots, washi tape and rubber stamps
• An AI narrator voiceover with word-synced subtitles
• An original documentary score with paper sound effects locked to the beat
What I can build for you:
• Explainer videos for products, ideas and brands
• Motion graphics and social reels
• AI content workflows that scale your output
Documentary-quality storytelling, delivered fast.

We used to dread internal tools.
A client would get their product live, and then ask, “Cool, but how do I see all the users? Or refund an order? Or fix this one record?” And suddenly we were building an admin panel nobody budgeted for.
Now we just use Retool.
Hook it up to Supabase or whatever API the project runs on, and in a day or two the client has a real back office. Tables, filters, buttons that actually do things. When something needs custom logic, we write a bit of JavaScript and move on.
We’ve also started using it for the boring-but-important parts of automation work. A simple screen where someone can see what an AI workflow did, approve it, or retry it when it breaks. Clients love this more than the fancy AI part, honestly.
It’s not magic, and it won’t replace a proper product. But for the stuff only your team will ever see, it’s hard to justify spending weeks on it.
If your ops still run on spreadsheets and “can you check that for me?” messages, that’s usually the sign.
Currently working on: In U | InSilence, an independent editorial magazine and visual exploration of consciousness, perception, and the art of being.
A self-initiated project developed through 84 Subtle Ways, bringing together editorial design, art direction, experimental typography, AI-assisted imagery, fashion, and philosophical inquiry.
The first issue, InSilence, explores silence not as the absence of something, but as an entrance into everything. A sequence of discoveries, an open-ended journey that can take you anywhere.
I'm developing the magazine as a collectible print publication and an evolving digital editorial experience, building a cohesive visual language across pages, imagery, and social storytelling.
