Elmo

AI SEO tool to track how LLMs perceive your product.

Poach

Find early stage founders by tracking the best VCs.

MealByMeal

Track calories and macros over text message.

Invite

Shelved.Domains

Helping founders buy and sell their unused domain names.

Favicon Generator

Generate a simple favicon from 10,000+ React Icons.

Shelved

Generate alt text for images directly in your CMS. The non-plugin installation approach did not resonate with users. It's also hard to attribute SEO differences specifically to adding alt text. The people that really need this are large e-commerce brands with millions of SKUs.

Stoat

Helped developers understand their build artifacts and build metrics. If this was built into GitHub people would love it, but selling it as a separate product proved to be a challenge.

PresetBot

Applied Lightroom presets with an API. You can read about why PresetBot failed in this blog post.

AudienceGarden

Helped grow your following on Twitter via replies. Abandoned due to high costs, long ramp up time to build credibility, and significant platform risk.

Interlinked

Compared connector coverage across data integration platforms. There's definitely value in understanding the feature space of connectors, but accurately synthesizing the data is difficult and finding people at exactly the right time during the purchasing process is even more difficult.

WithCalories

Directory of restaurants in San Francisco with calorie information on the menu. This drove a small amount of traffic to MealByMeal.

Vinyl Inspector

Chrome extension to better visually inspect photos of records on eBay to see if they are scratched. Built for a specific online community that ultimately hated it.

Elelem

A simple LLM framework in TypeScript with OpenTelemetry baked in. This was built for MealByMeal before other frameworks had nice interfaces for working with multiple LLM providers and tracing, but Vercel's AI SDK and others are much better now and should be used instead.

Fauna

A simple store featuring products with AI-generated art. It was used for experimenting with Facebook ads.
