## `/.#` — building niche software

> 
> ### Software that solves the boring parts of your workflow
> 
> I build practical tools for people who deal with data, images, and weather every
> day. Each one is designed to do one thing well, run on your own machine, and stay
> out of your way.
> **Beta on request from December 1, 2026. Alpha release January 1, 2027.**

**Synapic**
Automated image catalog tagging — local models, no cloud.Tags your image
catalog with categories, keywords, and plain-language descriptions using vision-
language models running on your own machine. Works with local folders or a Daminion
server. Windows now; macOS and Linux in development.

**WeatherStat Aggregator**
Historical weather analysis with chart generation.Turns
decades of daily weather from Open-Meteo into averages, typical ranges, extremes,
and year-over-year climate trends. CLI or desktop GUI. Exports CSV, charts, and 
Datawrapper-ready interactive charts.

**What I build**

> I’m a solo developer and a DAM (digital asset management) archivist by day. The
> problems these tools solve are the ones I run into at work — nothing here is vaporware.
> Beta builds are available on request from December 1, 2026. The alpha release 
> follows on January 1, 2027, with a 7-day money-back guarantee, so you can evaluate
> the tools against your real workload with no risk. Source is available for review
> on request.

**What makes them different**

 * **Runs locally** — models and data stay on your machine, no per-image cloud fees
 * **Built for real catalogs** — designed around the workflows of people who manage
   thousands of assets
 * **Open source, commercially supported** — source available on GitHub, downloads
   and licensing through the store
 * **Platforms** — Windows now; macOS and Linux in development

> Beta pricing and early access available on request. Beta from December 1, 2026;
> alpha release January 1, 2027.

As a solo developer, I find immense joy in creating various projects purely for 
fun and personal satisfaction. Each project allows me to explore new ideas and enhance
my skills in an enjoyable way.

I solve everyday problems that I frequently encounter at work. Beta builds are available
on request from December 1, 2026, and the alpha release follows on January 1, 2027.
