Project: End-to-End Product Launch Management System (Asana)
Manual/messy process: An agency running product launches for client businesses had no centralized system for coordinating the six departments involved in a launch, i.e. strategy, product readiness, marketing, sales enablement, launch-week execution, and post-launch review. Tasks were scattered, ownership was unclear, and leadership had no way to see real progress without pulling everyone into status meetings.
What I automated: Designed a complete end-to-end launch management system in Asana covering every phase of a product launch from strategy through post-launch review. Every task has a defined owner, every phase has a deadline, and milestones are visible in real time. Built in automations that flag problems before they escalate into crises, giving leadership live visibility into launch progress without a single status meeting.
Measurable outcome: eliminated the need for weekly status meetings, gave leadership real-time visibility across all 6 departments for the first time, reduced missed deadlines and faster time-to-launch

Northbound🚀: Studio Autopilot
An AI-powered client pipeline for creative studios, wrapped in a hand-built 3D world. A brief comes in, gets scored and routed, becomes a priced proposal, is accepted online and turns into a running project, with no one chasing emails.
Every studio knows the feeling: a new brief lands and the clock starts. Then come hours of reading, qualifying, writing proposals, chasing replies and setting up the project. Northbound turns that whole journey into one automated flow, so a small studio can respond like a big one.
The problem: Creative studios lose their best hours to admin. Strong leads wait days for a proposal, weak ones eat the same time as good ones, and follow-ups slip through the cracks. The work that wins clients is the work nobody has time for.
The solution:
- AI brief scoring and routing. Every brief is read for budget, timeline, goals and fit, then routed one of three ways: fast track, a quick human review, or an honest, helpful decline with pointers.
- Tailored proposals in about a minute. Strong fits get a scoped proposal with workstreams, a realistic timeline and three priced packages.
- Online acceptance and kickoff booking. Clients pick a package, accept online and book their kickoff call on the spot.
- A project that runs itself. Milestones are planned on acceptance, and follow-ups and reminders go out automatically.
- A morning digest. Every day at 08:00 the studio owner gets a summary of new briefs, proposals awaiting review, clients who haven’t replied, and what’s due.
- An owner dashboard showing pipeline, win rate and hours saved, plus a review queue to approve held proposals in one click.
- A live demo console where anyone can send a sample brief through the real pipeline and watch each step happen.
The morning digest is my favorite part here. When inquiries, proposals and deadlines are all in one place, you don't have to start the day searching through conversations. I'd just put the items that need an owner's decision today at the top.
I help founders and small businesses stop losing time and leads to manual work.
What I build:
→ AI automation: AI that reads every new lead, scores it, and routes the hot ones to your team in seconds (n8n, OpenAI, Claude)
→ GoHighLevel systems: pipelines, SMS and email follow-up, and stage gates, like the one I built for an insurance team so deals can't move without the sold value, policy details and documents
→ Bubble.io apps: MVPs, SaaS products, marketplaces and internal tools, with Stripe payments, APIs and AI features built in
→ Workflow pipelines: booking to payment to confirmation with no one touching it, like the n8n and Stripe flow I built for a cross-docking warehouse
The video shows it all in under a minute.

Impressive work! 👏 Great use of AI and workflow automation to save time, streamline operations, and help businesses convert more leads.
Briefly From Messy Brief to Crystal-Clear Project Plan
An AI-powered project-planning and client-alignment workspace for designers, developers, freelancers, and agencies.
The problem
Great projects don't always start with great briefs.
A client sends a few messages, shares a rough idea, or explains their requirements across emails and calls. Important details are missing. Deliverables are unclear. Deadlines and expectations haven't been confirmed.
Designers, developers, freelancers, and agencies end up spending valuable time chasing information, organising requirements, defining scope, and trying to get everyone on the same page before the actual work can begin.
When these early conversations aren't structured, misunderstandings can turn into scope creep, delayed timelines, and difficult client conversations.
The solution
Briefly helps turn an unstructured client brief into a clear, actionable project plan.
Instead of starting from a blank document, users can bring their client's initial requirements into one workspace, use AI to analyse the brief, identify missing information, and organise the project into a structured plan.
Briefly also supports client review and approval, helping teams create a clearer starting point before moving into delivery.
Who is Briefly for?
Briefly is designed for:
Freelance designers and product designers who need to turn client requests into clear scopes, milestones, and deliverables.
Developers and independent consultants who need to clarify requirements and expectations before building.
Small and mid-sized agencies that want a more consistent way to structure project intake and align teams with clients.
Creative studios and cross-functional teams working on websites, digital products, branding, and other client projects.
Whether you're working alone or coordinating a small team, the goal is the same: reduce ambiguity before the work begins.
How it works
1. Start with the brief
Bring in the client's initial project description, even when it is incomplete or loosely structured.
2. Analyse with AI
Briefly helps organise the requirements, identify project goals and deliverables, and surface unanswered questions that need clarification.
3. Create a project plan
Turn the analysis into a structured plan with milestones and relevant project details. Review and edit the plan before saving it.
4. Save and organise the project
Keep the project plan and its key information in a dedicated workspace, where you can return to it and continue refining the work.
5. Share for client review
Generate a private review link so the client can review the proposed plan and submit an approval. The goal is to establish clearer expectations before delivery begins.
What makes Briefly different?
Briefly focuses on the often-overlooked moment between receiving a client's idea and starting the actual work.
It's not just about generating text with AI. It's about creating a practical bridge between an unclear request and an agreed project direction.
The experience brings brief analysis, project planning, editing, saved project information, and client review into one workflow.
Built with Base44
Briefly was built as a responsive web application using Base44. The product includes a public landing page, an authenticated workspace, project and brief workflows, AI-powered brief analysis, saved project plans, and private client review links.
During testing, I verified the core journey: authentication, brief analysis, editing and saving a project plan, persistence after refresh, client review and approval, and protected workspace access. I also addressed a navigation issue and refreshed the editor's mobile preview to verify the responsive layout.
Product vision
I want Briefly to become a practical starting point for better client projects helping independent professionals and agencies spend less time chasing clarity and more time delivering great work.
The bigger vision is simple:
Every project deserves a clear beginning.
Briefly turns messy briefs into clearer plans, better questions, and more confident project kickoffs.
