CaratIQ — Modern Jewelry Management & Catalog Platform
Managing dynamic jewelry inventories across multiple sales channels often breaks under traditional database models due to real-time pricing recalculations and complex SKU variations.
What I Built:
• Dynamic Catalog & Multi-Attribute Filtering: Architected sub-150ms catalog searches handling live metal spot pricing, carat grades, and stone certification tiers without client-side lag.
• Server-Rendered Architecture: Leveraged Next.js Server Components to offload bulk queries, significantly reducing initial client bundle size.
• Automated Inventory & Invoicing Sync: Integrated custom webhooks and payment flows for instant stock reservation and order processing.
• Role-Based Access Control: Built multi-tenant admin dashboards for floor staff, store managers, and suppliers.
Tech Stack:
Next.js, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Tailwind CSS, REST APIs & Webhooks
Results:
• Sub-150ms Query Speeds: Cut search and filtering latency by over 40% across extensive catalog datasets.
• Zero Sync Collisions: Automated live price updates and inventory locks, eliminating overselling across peak sales windows.
The Outcome:
Transformed a traditionally fragmented retail inventory system into a unified, high-speed SaaS platform that bridges in-store sales and digital catalog operations.

I've been quietly building landing page templates. Six are out today, each with its own brand, its own type pairing and one interaction it's built around:
→ Aurel: a skincare brand with a WebGL serum drop that bulges toward your cursor
→ Ferro Type: a type foundry where the hero word bends its weight and width under the pointer
→ Meridian Expeditions: contour maps that redraw themselves as you switch routes
→ Oda: an architecture studio whose timber cabin draws itself, with a live sun study
→ Relay: a dev tool where the editor types a workflow and the run graph executes it live
→ Signal: a mission-control SaaS with a live infrastructure graph that contains threats as they flare
Built to be edited with AI. Every template ships with a README, a DESIGN.md and an AGENTS.md, so Claude, Cursor or whatever assistant you use changes it the way it was built, not the way it guesses.
Pricing, per template:
• HTML: $29
• React: $59
• Bundle (HTML + React): $79
Or get All-Access for $169: all six templates, both editions, plus every future drop. Nine more are on the way, at no extra cost.
No page builder, no lock-in, no third-party requests.
If you build sites for clients, I'd love to hear which one you'd use first.
Ferro Type is the one I would open first. Bending a variable font under the pointer re-lays out the text every frame, which is a much bigger bill than it looks, and stepping the weight in a few fixed increments is usually what keeps it smooth on a laptop that is not plugged in....
So I Recently rebranded my upcoming AI Agent Harness from "Crank" to "Pixie" which is the name of my cat. Do you think it was the right decision?
Which one do you prefer? Crank or Pixie?!

Pixie gets my vote too. Naming it after your cat makes it memorable, and it feels a lot friendlier for a tool people trust with their code. Nice rebrand.
