Things I built independently — shipped, shelved, and somewhere in between.
A geopolitical and financial news aggregator with LLM-powered summaries and market impact analysis. Built to cut through noise and surface what actually matters.
Started as a personal need — I wanted one place to track global events and their market implications without reading ten different sources. Still actively building.
SwingTrading Automation
In Progress2025Automating swing trading analysis for halal-compliant US equities — screening, signal generation, and position sizing.
A personal project at the intersection of finance and engineering. The goal is a system that does the analytical heavy lifting so the decision-making stays human.
YoutubeTranscriber
Archived2024A tool to transcribe and summarise long YouTube videos and podcasts — built for people who want the insight without the time investment.
Shelved when Google released NotebookLM. Timing is part of building — sometimes you are right about the problem but early on the solution.
Lingostry
Shut down2023A language learning platform built to make vocabulary acquisition more intuitive through spaced repetition and contextual learning.
Didn't find its users. I gave it a fair run, made the call to shut it down, and moved on. Shipping and stopping is still better than never starting.
