apps · the loop family
small tools,
built slowly.
made because i wanted them to exist and nobody had made them the way i needed. released when they're ready, not when they're finished.
bookloop
talk to what you've read, so it actually stays with you instead of quietly leaving.
you finish a book, feel changed by it, and six weeks later can't recall a single argument from it. bookloop turns reading into a conversation you can come back to — so the ideas keep working long after the last page.
tasteloop
for building taste in fields still too new to have rules.
in anything genuinely new, there is no syllabus and no consensus — only people who have looked at enough of it to know what's good. tasteloop is an attempt to compress that looking, so taste stops being a thing you either have or don't.
01
how they get made
one problem, held for a long time.
every one of these started as an annoyance i couldn't put down — not a market, not a gap, just something that kept bothering me until building it was easier than ignoring it.
they all carry the loop suffix because they work the same way: you put something in, it comes back to you changed, and you go round again. that loop is the product. everything else is packaging.

half-drawn in a notebook
later, maybe.
these exist as sketches and nothing more. listing them is a promise to myself, not to you.
