Locent (2014)

Payote (2017)
Payote was developed to address invoicing challenges we encountered while running Juicer. Many companies require custom invoices with addresses, VAT numbers, or other details Stripe doesn't support. Payote provides an embeddable widget that lets customers view and customize their past invoices.

Linkhorse (2023)
I built Linkhorse to organize and tag my bookmarks and access them from any device. I use it every day. There’s also an app that makes saving links easy. It's essentially a personal knowledge database.

vid2pod (2026)
A lot of the YouTube and TikTok videos I watch are just 45 minutes of someone looking at a camera and talking. I built vid2pod to turn those videos into podcasts I can listen to instead of staring at a screen. I also built an app to make it as easy as possible to add new videos to your podcast.

Minotaur (2016)
When Rdio shut down I couldn’t find a music service I liked. Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal all felt cluttered. So I built Minotaur. It uses Spotify's album data to fetch music from YouTube and presents it in a more thoughtfully designed interface.
