These are tools I built because a question was nagging at me and nobody had answered it properly. None of them pays the bills directly. They are how I keep my judgement sharp, and they are the clearest proof of what I actually do for clients: find a real question, then build something that answers it reliably. That is the muscle you hire when you hire me.
Newy Vibes and Lake Mac Vibes
Property intelligence for Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. Punch in an address and see what is actually going on within 500 metres: development applications, contamination, venues, noise. The data existed, scattered across a dozen places. Nobody had pulled it together into a straight answer, so I did.

Hunter Green Jobs Tracker
The Hunter is a coal-to-renewables transition zone, and everyone has an opinion about green jobs but nobody was counting them. This tracks green job demand week by week, classified against the ESCO and O*NET taxonomies. As far as I know, it is the only source measuring what actually replaces a coal job.

AgentReady
Search is moving from Google to AI assistants, and most local businesses are invisible to them. AgentReady works quietly underneath an existing website so ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity understand the business and send people straight to it.
How I actually build these, with AI doing the heavy lifting and me checking every claim it makes, is its own story.
