Commissions

Mouse Trap $10 · 24 hours

One repetitive annoyance, one small tool. A file-renaming chore, a log you eyeball every morning, a CSV that needs reshaping every Monday. Single-purpose exe or script, one revision round included.

Workshop $30 · 3 days

A real desktop app for one workflow: several screens, SQLite storage, CSV/JSON import & export so you're never locked in, light and dark mode. Think a mini LedgerPaw for your niche — livestock records, workshop jobs, invoices, gear rentals. You get a short spec to sign off on before I build. Two revision rounds.

Whole Barn $90 · 1 week

Full build: proper spec conversation, data model, 5+ screens, import/export, changelog, and an update path so your feedback after launch becomes v1.1, not silence. Weekly checkpoints so you see it grow. Three revision rounds.

How it works

1. Email me what you do by hand today, what files it touches, and what "done" looks like.
2. I reply with questions and a short fixed-price spec — no surprises after that.
3. You approve, I build, you get the exe, the source's story, and a versioned changelog.
4. Payment by card, only after the spec is agreed. You own the tool outright.

What I won't build: cloud services that need accounts, anything that touches other people's systems, scraping private data. Local tools for your own data, and I say no plainly when a job isn't a fit.

Proof, not promises

Three free tools already live here, built the same way: LedgerPaw (small-landlord bookkeeping, v1.0 → v1.2.8 in four days on user feedback), StoragePaw (self-storage) and LogPaw (daily log with search). Public changelog, SHA-256 checksums on every download. Try them free — the commissions above are for the tool that doesn't exist yet.
