Hey, I'm Tim 👋
I'm a solo indie dev with a background in B2B SaaS marketing and growth. The 19 sites here are my side bets, and the goal is honest: earn enough from them to pay the mortgage.
I look for all-time classics that deserve a modern experience: things people have loved for decades but still reach for through dated, cluttered sites. A bet has to hold real attention for long sessions, do something a chatbot can't simply replace, and stay simple enough to launch fast and run with almost no upkeep.
Everything ships clean, modern, and useful within the first few seconds.

How I build.
The category doesn't matter. Every bet gets picked, built, and judged the same way.
Classics, modernized
I start with things people have loved for decades and give them the clean, fast, modern experience they deserve.
Deep engagement, low upkeep
Every pick has to hold attention for long sessions, do something a chatbot can't replace, and stay simple enough to run itself.
Small bets, fast verdicts
AI-assisted dev plus a growth background makes launches cheap. Bets fail fast or grow fast, and the winners get doubled down on.
