The same person you brief on strategy ships the code.

HireRewards

a friendlier job-application tracker

Helps you find roles worth applying to, remembers where you left off, and nudges you when you've gone quiet (or the role has). No spreadsheet. It taps into what you're already using — a browser extension, your Gmail. It celebrates your submissions, because in this economy any forward movement is a win. The admin view lets career and workforce professionals oversee a cohort of job seekers and meet them where they are.

Receipts

unemployment paperwork, done for you

You applied for three jobs on Tuesday. By Sunday night, when New York State's WS 5 form is due, the details are gone. Receipts logs each application the moment it happens and fills the official PDF for you at the end of the week. The stakes aren't abstract: claimants have lost four weeks of benefits over a form they couldn't reconstruct.

Morning brief & meeting recaps

automated standup prep

Used to spend an hour every morning on meeting admin: chasing agendas, writing recaps, fanning out action items. This does that pass for me before I'm at my desk. The same stack runs for the team I lead — a Tuesday agenda nudge, Zoom AI recap, and tagged Slack action items go out for our recurring weekly client meeting.

Weekday work brief

what the day wants from me

By the time I open Slack at 7:30 with coffee, the brief is waiting: the two calendar conflicts I need to fix before 10, what I committed to on which project plan, the FYIs I can read on the train. I start the day knowing what the day actually wants from me.

Yesterday's meetings, recapped

one morning digest

I walk into Tuesday already knowing what was decided in Monday's four meetings — without rereading four transcripts. Yesterday's calls come back as a single Slack post each morning (Monday's covers the weekend). The full recaps are archived to disk if I need to pull a quote.

Meeting recap

client email or team Slack, automatically

Knows the difference between a client recap and a team recap. External attendees on the call? Drafts an email. Internal only? Drops a Slack message. Same trigger, different register.

Weekly agenda reminder

keeps the standup doc full

Keeps the running agenda for my weekly client standup from going into Tuesday's call empty. Drafts the Monday-night nudge to the group; I review and send.

Meeting Minder

meeting follow-through, end to end

The gap between a good meeting and a kept commitment is follow-through, and that's where things quietly die. This closes it: verbatim transcripts in, decisions and action items out, each one matched to a real owner, reconciled against the tracker, with the nudges drafted and waiting for me to send.

Voice notes for Claude

in-person meeting recaps

The in-person analog to my Zoom recap workflow. When the conversation happens at a coffee shop or in a hallway, I record it on my phone (with permission, always). This lets Claude read those voice notes the same way it reads Zoom transcripts — so the recap, action items, and follow-ups land in the same place whether the meeting was on video or across a table.

Billable

automatic time tracking

If you're a consultant, you've done this: it's 6pm, you're trying to remember what you worked on between the 11am call and lunch, and you guess low. Affinity Live puts that gap at 10–20% of billable hours. Billable watches what's actually on my screen every 30 seconds, matches it to a project, and posts the hours to my timesheet at the end of the day. I stop guessing.

Focus Nudges

an ADHD-friendly attention coach

Focus help that stays calm. The same screen samples that bill my time also watch for the patterns that quietly cost me a day: drifting onto a time-sink site, three hours heads-down with no break, 1pm with no lunch, a wall of back-to-back meetings and no recovery. When one shows up I get a single quiet macOS banner — not a stream of alerts. The distraction nudge names a real priority for today, pulled from that morning's brief, so it reads "back to HPS?" instead of "get back to work."

Monthly invoice builder

invoicing as a 30-second review

Turns the monthly invoicing chore — about an hour of clicking — into a 30-second review of a pre-drafted email to my client.

Crosswalk Cafe

a private memory layer for relationships

I had coffee with someone on Tuesday. Walking back to the office, I dictated twenty seconds into my watch — what we talked about, what they're working on, what I said I'd send them. By the time I sat down, it was logged against their contact card and the action item was waiting. It also reads my messages, my LinkedIn, and my calendar, so the threads I'd otherwise lose stay attached to the people they belong to. So I can remember — be a better friend, a better colleague, whatever the moment calls for.

LinkedIn network analyzer

I meet a lot of people. Clustering my LinkedIn contacts by where I first met them — conference, intro, prior job — gives me a way to remember context, and it syncs into my CRM.

Saved from Social

the saves folder that actually does something

Turns the Reels and TikToks I save from a passive graveyard into things I can actually act on. It surfaces what I'd otherwise forget — the craft I bookmarked for Saturday with the kids, the recipe I meant to try this week. Brick-and-mortar saves will eventually nudge me when I'm nearby that coffee shop or store.

Chat synopsis

save what a conversation decided

Some conversations with Claude produce decisions or reframes worth keeping. This pulls those out as a markdown artifact and files it to Obsidian, Notion, or Drive.

Reading Rainbow

the home library, shelved

We own more books than I can hold in my head, across three rooms, and I kept buying duplicates. This is the shelf view: what we own, where it physically is, what's out on loan, and what to read next.

The Making Corner

which craft to reach for

I knit, cross-stitch, sew, and make paper, and the supplies live in one corner of a bedroom. The hard part isn't the making, it's choosing — so this asks how much time and energy I actually have tonight and picks the project that fits.

Gridcraft

photo to stitchable pattern

Turns any photo into a chart I can actually stitch — cross-stitch or diamond painting — with a real floss palette instead of a rough pixel grid.

CDMX tasting menus

a trip, reconstructed

Six restaurants over five days in Mexico City, and by the time we were home the meals had blurred together. This rebuilt the trip from what we already had — photos and reservation emails — into something worth keeping.

Professional Brain

one local source of truth

One local source of truth for contacts, journal entries, meetings, partnerships, time tracking, and the inbox — instead of context scattered across notebooks, Notion, and email.

cc-tap

a bridge between AI desktop apps and CLI sessions

Stops me copy-pasting between AI windows when two of them are working on the same project. The desktop client — Claude, Kimi, Hermes, whatever's in front — talks to the CLI session through MCP. The work keeps running in the background on my private server while I close the laptop.

Build Scoreboard

the idea backlog as a game

I generate ideas faster than I ship them: 54 tracked, 51 still queued. The scoreboard turns that pile into a game. Every idea is worth points by effort, shipping earns them, and a level bar shows how close the next level is. Quick wins surface at the top, so the next thing to build is one click away instead of buried.
