Practical ideas on AI, legacy modernization, SaaS engineering, and building software products.
Building GST Billing for a Distributor: Cases, Boxes, Pieces and the Problems Nobody Mentions
Off-the-shelf billing software assumes you sell one unit at a time at one price. A wholesale distributor doesn't. Here's what we learned building a GST billing, stock and field-sales platform from scratch.
Catching Fake Field Visits: Building Trust Into a Bank Verification App
When a bank lends money based on a field visit, it needs to know the visit really happened. Here's how we designed a verification platform where every report carries its own evidence — and suspicious visits flag themselves.
Replatforming an Ecommerce Store Without Taking It Offline

What to Look for in an Engineering Delivery Partner (A Guide for Technology Consultants)
If you're a technology consultant, fractional CTO, or digital transformation advisor, the hardest part of your job usually isn't making the right recommendation. It's what happens after — when the client says yes, and now someone has to actually build the thing. Here's a practical checklist for evaluating an engineering delivery partner before you bring anyone into a client relationship you've spent years building.
Why Most Legacy Modernization Projects Fail (And How to Avoid It)
90% of legacy modernization projects go over budget or get abandoned. Here's the pattern we see repeatedly — and what actually works.
The LLM Is the Easy Part
Everyone is obsessed with which model to use. After building AI products in production, I can tell you — the model is the smallest problem you'll face.
We Rewrote It from Scratch. Here's What We Learned.
