About

I’m a founder focused on building practical products that create clearer, more direct experiences for people online. I’m currently building Elite Showroom, but my bigger goal is to create businesses that solve real problems, listen closely to the people using them, and grow through trust rather than hype. I am interested in startups, SaaS, marketplaces, real estate, technology, and the process of turning an early idea into something people genuinely rely on. I joined Product Hunt to learn from other makers, share what I’m building honestly, connect with ambitious people, and keep improving through feedback. My goal is to keep building, learn fast, and create products that open real opportunities for the people who use them.

Dig the core problem like I am starting right now.

After spending three years building a finance management tool, I m curious to revisit this question as if I were starting from scratch.

Every founder needs a way to comprehend their finances. What are the most crucial answers they need to know? Is it just the MRR number that can be found on Stripe?

What tools are you paying for as a solo founder that you'd actually miss?

I run a small online laptop store in the UK and pretty much do everything myself, from SEO and product pages to fixing random site issues. Over the last year my tool stack has got out of hand, and I'm sure I'm paying for a few things I open once a month.

Trying to cut it down to stuff that genuinely saves me time. What are you paying for that you'd be annoyed to lose? And is there anything you cancelled and never missed?

Offline-first mobile architecture vs cloud SaaS for field apps

Hi everyone,

I have been researching and building a mobile utility for field contractors and service workers. During the development process, one major architectural decision came up: Cloud vs 100% Offline.

Many field professionals (contractors, technicians, inspectors) work in areas with poor or zero cellular coverage. Cloud-based SaaS tools often freeze or fail to sync in these conditions.

On the other hand, an offline-first approach keeps all data, documents, and photos strictly local on the device, ensuring instant speed and complete privacy.
