Build Sprint · 1:1

Your idea, in production, in around six weeks.

You bring an idea. I bring AI leverage and engineering. By the end, you have a working version of your thing — App Store, Play Store, web, or internal tool — that real people can use.

1:1 working sessions · evenings and weekends · taking inquiries

Who this is for

Probably a fit

  • You have an idea you keep meaning to build but haven't shipped
  • You're technical or semi-technical — not afraid to read code, but want a co-builder, not a course
  • You're a founder pre-funding who wants to test an idea before raising
  • You're shipping an internal tool at work that doesn't justify a hire
  • You want to learn while shipping, not after

Probably not a fit

  • You don't have a clear idea yet — build that clarity first, then come back
  • You're expecting pure hand-off with no involvement from your side — Build Sprint works best when you're in the room
  • The work involves regulated, security-critical, or compliance-heavy domains
  • You need a 5-person team and 12-month roadmap — different shape of work

How it works

  • Week 0 A real conversation about your idea Free. 45 minutes. We talk through what you want to build, what shape it takes, and whether a sprint is the right fit. If it isn't, I'll say so and point you somewhere better.
  • Week 1 Scope and stack We agree the smallest version that's worth shipping. Set up the repo, the deployment pipeline, the tools. By Friday: skeleton of your app running somewhere real.
  • Weeks 2–4 Build in public, with you One 90-minute working session each week — actual building, not status updates. Async support in between via Slack or WhatsApp. Working code in your repo every week, not a slide deck.
  • Week 5 Polish and prepare App Store submission, web deployment, internal rollout — whatever "production" means for your project. We work through the boring last 20% that kills most side projects.
  • Week 6 Ship and hand off Live in front of real users. You own the code, the infra, the accounts. I document what I did so you can keep building after I'm gone.

"Around six weeks" is a target, not a contract. Some ideas fit in four. Bigger or fuzzier ideas need eight or ten. We'll set realistic timing in week zero and adjust honestly as we go.

What I bring

Software engineering at a London asset manager by day. On weekends and evenings, side projects of my own — and a strong opinion about how AI tools fit into shipping real software.

I'm not a generalist consultant. I'm someone who builds things, has shipped them, and can show you the code. The clearest signal of what I bring is what I've already shipped:

  • → VoxTrade — voice-first mobile app for tradespeople. Live on App Store and Play Store, in active use.
  • → AI Dev Diaries — automated content pipeline I built that researches, scripts, generates and publishes videos.

Tell me about your idea

No commitment from this — it's just the start of a conversation.

If your idea sounds like a fit, I'll reply with a time for a free week-zero chat. If it isn't, I'll be honest and point you elsewhere.

Optional. Helps me know if the timing fits.
