Half day. That's how long it took to go from "why existing bookmark extensions don't fit all my needs" to a custom Chrome extension running in my browser. If you have hundreds of bookmarks scattered across folders with zero organization, you know the pain. I tried a handful of bookmark managers on the Chrome Web Store and didn't find one that fully met my needs. So I opened Antigravity, connected Claude Code, and started building my own. What it does: Card-based visual grid instead of Chrome's default list. Open Graph images are pulled automatically for link previews. Dead link detection and bulk removal of duplicates. A tagging system that Chrome still doesn't have natively. The OG image fetcher chokes on sites with aggressive CORS policies, and the tag UI needs work. But it handles my 1800+ bookmarks without lag.

AI code generators break on multi-step forms. After 3-4 steps with validation and branching, the AI loses context and starts breaking things it already got right. You spend tokens fixing regressions instead of building. This template prevents it with strict file separation. Each form step is an isolated component. Modify one step, and nothing else breaks. The AI only needs to read one file at a time.

Crossplatform mobile app. Policy advisors and investors track 2,508 capability fields across all economies: complexity scores, growth trends, unrealized potential gaps. Compare countries, watch specific fields, get alerts on capability shifts. Two primary user types with fundamentally different needs from the same dataset.

Cover image for Asian manufacturers build world-class products
Asian manufacturers build world-class products but can't sell them to Western markets. CommScale takes raw factory specs (ISO certs, production capacities, chemical formulations) and turns them into market-ready brand packages. That means positioning, trademark checks, and matching with distributors. Three user types, AI handling the translation from technical language to commercial pitch.

Redesign of a real estate brokerage platform (USA). I implemented new features for scheduling both virtual and offline tours, streamlined navigation, and refined the filtering logic. The process was research-driven, involving interviews with stakeholders, staff, and end-users. Key deliverables included optimized user flows and a complete revamp of the site's information architecture, creating a dev-ready design and a handoff for developers.

AI-scaffold engine Turning Africa's locked research into working tools for local businesses. Researchers can't afford to hire developers. Entrepreneurs can't read the papers. The gap between "I published a finding" and "Someone built a tool from it" is where most African innovation dies. The bottleneck isn't talent or ambition. It's a missing tool: something that translates research into products without requiring a $100K data science hire. The goal. Build what I'm calling an "invisible IT bridge": a platform that lets local businesses use advanced analytics without data scientists or deep technical skills. It has to work on slow connections, cheap phones, and for people who've never used a SaaS product.
