Small tools, built from the actual work.

I keep hitting friction in software everyone already uses, so I fix it for myself first and clean it up enough to share afterwards. Two products live here so far — both still mine, both still things I use daily.

Live

WACompanion

Tags, colour-coded Lists, saved replies, reminders and search that actually works — built straight into the WhatsApp Web you already have open. Free Chrome extension, with a desktop app for the caps and plain-language search.

In development

Reminiscent

Save the images you see on Instagram and Facebook, filed by the person they're from instead of the platform they came from. A local vault on your own machine — nothing uploaded, nothing streamed anywhere.

Why CleverWorkaround

Everything under this name started as something slowing me down at my own job, not a gap I spotted in a market report. I build the fix for myself first, use it daily, and only then clean it up enough to hand to someone else. If a WACompanion or Reminiscent problem sounds like yours, it's probably worth trying.
