Field technicians ask questions in plain English and get answers from the company's own PDF manuals and customer records, with the exact page cited. Built on n8n, Supabase (Postgres + pgvector) and OpenAI with function calling for CRM lookups. Next.js front end on Vercel.

Having the manual pull exact page citations lets field techs answer calls faster, and the CRM lookup via function calling keeps the data flow tight

Just finished building a Salon Booking Management System!
The goal was simple: make appointment management easier for salon owners and reduce the manual work involved in handling bookings and reminders.
The system connects the complete workflow in one place:
1 Customer makes a booking
2 Booking gets confirmed
3 Owner sees it on the dashboard
4 Upcoming appointments are organized clearly
5 Reminders help the owner stay on top of appointments
One of the key things I focused on was making the experience simple, clean, and easy to understand, while keeping the workflow practical for a real business.
This project helped me think beyond just building screens — and focus more on the actual business problem, user flow, and overall product experience.
Excited to keep improving it and turn it into an even more polished product.

Good work
Marlowe Mobile Detailing
Solo-owner mobile car detailer, Austin, TX (serving Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Lakeway)
Marlowe Mobile Detailing was losing about 1 in 5 bookings to no-shows and running behind on nearly every job. This build replaces a vague "can you detail my car?" text with a fully scoped, weather-aware booking flow that sets an accurate time and price upfront, captures access instructions before he arrives, and automates rain-day rescheduling so he never has to chase a customer again.
He works alone and travels to the customer. Rain cancels outdoor jobs. Customers under-describe how dirty their cars are, so jobs run long. About 20% of bookings were no-shows because people forgot he was coming to them.
“This was the clearest report I've gotten from any freelancer.”
Not the biggest project of the week, but the reaction that stuck. A plain, jargon-free recap of what shipped and why it mattered that's what actually built the trust.
→ A report that gets read is worth more than one that just gets sent.
