Projects
Most of what I do shows up as software now. Some of it I built for myself, some of it for clients, and some of it because the industry needed it and nobody else was building it. Here is the current shelf.
Live products
Four products in active use. Each one solves a specific problem I kept running into and could not find a clean answer for.
Punch List NYC · live
A free, two-minute lead magnet that pulls the actual DOH inspection history for any NYC restaurant and turns it into a punch list of fixable risks before the next visit. Useful for operators, brokers, and anyone underwriting a deal on a NYC space.
Open Punch List NYC
BuildoutFeed · live
Every restaurant and bar in NYC that just pulled permits, filed a liquor license, or hit a renovation milestone, stage-tagged and matched to the trades, attorneys, and vendors who want to be in the room. Two feeds: NEW BUILD and RENOVATION.

Liquor Bets · live
Points-based forecasting on James Beard winners, Spirited Awards, M&A in beverage alcohol, and the bets the industry is already making in private. Forecasts settle on real outcomes. The Spirits Wire publishes the signal.

KMS Ops · agency arm
The KMS engine is what runs my own business. Reviews, lead nurture, client onboarding, intake, scheduling, recovery, and reporting. The agency arm packages it for operators and spirits brands who want the same engine without building it themselves.

Custom builds
Most of the products on this page started as a custom build for a real client. If you see the shape of a tool you wish existed, that is usually a sign worth chasing. Bring me the problem. I will tell you what it would take to ship a working version.
