Projects

I went looking for a good math app for my daughters and mostly found two kinds: free ones covered in ads that wanted my kid's attention more than her arithmetic, and good ones that wanted fifteen dollars a month forever. Multiply that by two kids and a few years and you're paying for a used car so someone can practice their times tables.

The on-device calorie tracker I wrote about a few months ago is on the App Store. It's called PocketMacro now. Here's what happened between "the model runs on a phone" and "this is an app people can use": portion confidence, a text entry path, a download pipeline that verifies itself, and a release gate for code that returns a guess instead of an answer.

Wanted to build a fun game with my girls to allow us a whacky way to play while we travel

MacroSnap, a calorie tracker that runs its AI entirely on your phone. No server. No account. No meal photos leaving the device, ever. And because there's no server to pay for, no subscription either — you buy it once and it's yours. You snap a picture, the model estimates what's on the plate, you correct anything it got wrong, and it logs. That's the whole loop.
