Products

Plikka: Your whole life, one step ahead. A personal assistant coordinates a delayed flight and dinner plans.

In development · since 2026

Plikka

Your whole life, one step ahead.

A personal assistant that lives in your chat, learns how you actually live, and gets to things before you ask.

How it works
  • Reaches out first when something genuinely warrants it, and stays quiet otherwise
  • Acts on your real accounts — mail, calendar, reminders — instead of suggesting what you could do
  • Runs as a dedicated agent on a machine of your own, with its memory, files and plugins in one place
  • TypeScript
  • Next.js
  • Tailwind CSS

Wildcard

Released · 2026

Default apps, a whole category at a time.

Decide which app opens which kind of file across 29 categories and 1,135 extensions and link schemes. Every change is a diff you approve first.

How it works
  • 29 curated categories, so no list of file extensions is ever typed by hand
  • Every change is a proposal: approve the diff, and the result is read back out of LaunchServices and verified rather than assumed
  • Rules hold a standing intent, so an installer quietly reclaiming .json surfaces as drift instead of the wrong app opening a week later
  • A snapshot before every write, with history and undo
  • The same approval gate for the window, the CLI and the MCP server an agent talks to

Fixed by the time you finish the space

Caret

Released · 2026

Fixes what the wrong layout typed.

A macOS menu bar app that catches words typed on the wrong keyboard layout and corrects them as you finish the space. No dialog, no list of suggestions.

How it works
  • Four kinds of evidence, from a dictionary vouching for the word down to a character model judging the shape of its syllables
  • Silent unless the evidence points one way only, because a wrong correction costs far more than a missed one
  • Leaves URLs, paths, camelCase, digits, shortcuts and anything you already reverted alone
  • No network code in the project at all: nothing typed leaves the Mac

  • SwiftUI
  • Accessibility API

Shop-Floor Operations Platform

In progress · since 2024

Fortaco

A Power Platform and Dataverse ecosystem unifying shop-floor workflows — 5S, TPM, compliance, incidents, business trips — with the KPI dashboards that report on them. Overdue tasks fell 30%.

  • —Overdue tasks down 30% once the work and its reporting lived in the same place
  • —Digitised several processes that had been paper checklists
  • —Role-based access control and workflow automation across sites
  • —Management-level dashboards over production and quality data

Quality Control at the Point of Work

Delivered · 2026

Fortaco

A digital quality-control platform putting real-time self-inspection checklists where the work happens, rather than in an audit after it. Internal production deviations fell 65%.

  • —Internal production deviations down 65%
  • —Self-inspection at the point of work, in real time rather than retrospectively
  • —Findings recorded as data, so the same defect can be counted rather than remembered
