Most businesses lose customers due to long wait times or poor app UI.
I built these solutions to fix exactly that:
1: A Food Delivery App that makes ordering food a 3-click process.
2: An AI Chatbot that solves customer problems in seconds, not hours.
Context-aware conversations for personalized support.
24/7 availability to handle high volumes of inquiries.
Optimized for seamless integration into existing mobile apps.

A successful business shouldn't lose time to successful growth.
That's exactly what happened to Riley Taylor Tattoo Studio.
My lifelong friend Andrea and her partner Fernando have built an incredible reputation. More clients meant more inquiries, more consultations, more bookings—and more time spent answering the same questions, collecting reference images, coordinating appointments, and managing conversations across Instagram, Facebook, Messenger, email, and phone.
I built Riley Taylor Studio OS—a complete operating system for the studio.
Instead of scattered conversations, every client now follows one structured journey:
• Discover the studio through a modern, mobile-first website.
• Submit a detailed consultation instead of endless message threads.
• Receive confirmations, reminders, booking updates, and aftercare automatically.
• Track the entire process through a dedicated client portal.
• Get instant answers from an AI Studio Concierge before waiting for a human response.
On the studio side, the transformation is even bigger.
Instead of manually piecing together conversations from multiple platforms, every request arrives in one dashboard, already organized and ready for review. AI summarizes consultations, artists prepare quotes, manage bookings, update request status, and keep everything moving from a single Studio OS.
The result isn't just a better website.
It's fewer repetitive conversations.
Less administration.
Better communication.
A smoother client experience.
And, most importantly, more time for Andrea and Fernando to do what they love: create incredible tattoos.
This is exactly why I love building software—not because technology is exciting, but because the right system quietly gives people their time back.

This is premium at it's finest, love the mouse hover color saturation touch!
I gave a local Surulere restaurant the online glow-up it deserves 🔥
Rutz Restaurant has been serving delicious Nigerian meals in Surulere for years, but like many small businesses, they had almost no functional online presence — just an old, inactive Facebook page with no way for customers to easily book a table or get information.
So I built them a fully designed, mobile-responsive website on Base44 featuring:
✅ A beautiful “table glow” experience that captures the warm, cozy vibe of the restaurant
✅ An AI Superagent that answers menu questions, location info, and helps guide bookings
✅ A working Table Reservation system that sends instant WhatsApp notifications to the restaurant and confirmation to the customer
This isn’t just a pretty website — it’s a practical tool that can actually help them get more bookings and reduce time spent on calls and DMs.
Before → After transformation:
Old: No easy way to book or get information
New: Professional presence + real automation that works 24/7
Huge thanks to the Base44 team for this challenge. It pushed me to build something with real utility, not just visuals.

What do you think — would you book a table through a site like this?

🚀 Kicking off my submission for the Base44 × Contra #GiveItAGlow Challenge!
I'm redesigning the website and customer experience for a local restaurant here in Ontario, with the goal of creating automations that actually helps the business grow.
The plan is to build:
✨ A premium, mobile-friendly website
🤖 AI-powered customer concierge
📅 Reservation and catering automations
📈 Tools that save the owner time and improve the customer experience
I just reached out to the business today and shared the first design direction. 🤞
👀 You can check out the first pass here:
https://choun-kitchen-collective.base44.app/
I'm now waiting to hear back from the owner so wish me luck!
I'm excited to document the entire process from concept to launch! Stay tuned for behind-the-scenes updates, design iterations, automations, and the full before-and-after transformation 😊
Reaching out to a real restaurant owner instead of just designing in a vacuum is the part most people skip in these challenges. The AI concierge and reservation automations sound like the trickiest part to get right without annoying regular customers, how are you thinking about...
