Built and running
Four things I made.
Each one is mine end to end — the database, the payment flow, the admin side, the deployment. Two are live businesses, one is in build, one is a demo I put together to show a prospect what a direct booking site looks like.
-
Meridian Drive
meridian.udemo.co.uk
Demo
A direct booking site for an exotic car fleet. Live availability calendar, driving licence upload and verification, deposit payment, and an owner dashboard for approving bookings and blocking dates. Built to show what a fleet looks like when it owns its own bookings instead of renting them from a platform.
-
Screenroo
screenroo.com
Live
Phone screening for recruiters, done by an AI caller. Upload a job description, get a vacancy link, and candidates are called and screened in about five minutes. The recruiter gets a written summary on each one instead of an afternoon of calls.
-
Autodebtor
autodebtor.com
In build
A voice agent that makes B2B collections calls. Streaming speech in and out with sub-second turnaround, so it holds a real conversation about an overdue invoice rather than reading a script at someone. This is the one that comes directly from the day job.
-
SelfAccountant
selfaccountant.com
Live
Self Assessment filing for UK sole traders. A short eligibility filter, a one-off payment, document review that only ever reports figures it can actually read, and an SA103 pack at the end. No subscription, no accountant.
How a build runs
Working, then handed over.
The same sequence every time. Nothing changes hands until it works, and what changes hands is the whole thing — repo, database, domain.
- 01
Brief
What it has to do, and what it deliberately won't.
- 02
Schema
Tables, permissions and the rules that stop bad data before the UI exists.
- 03
Build
Front end, payments, admin. Deployed from day one, never on my laptop only.
- 04
Verify
Every flow clicked through for real, on a phone, with the tests kept in the repo.
