Independent software & AI projects, built around real workflows.

I build practical tools for media ingestion, searchable knowledge archives, automation, and personal workflow systems — with a bias toward local-first, reusable, and low-overhead solutions.

Current focus Media Knowledge Ingest

Multi-platform video → transcript → searchable local archive.

VideoTranscriptArchiveSearch

Current projects

Small systems with a clear end-to-end use case.

Media Knowledge Ingest

A local-first pipeline for turning online video into searchable text. The current system uses subtitle-first ingestion with ASR fallback and a unified archive.

YouTube Bilibili ASR fallback Local archive

Workflow Automation

Lightweight tools that connect existing software, structured data, and AI only where it adds measurable value.

About

I’m an independent developer working on software and AI-assisted tools for my own real-world workflows. I prefer reusing mature tools, shipping a minimal closed loop first, and only building custom components where they create a clear advantage.
