Independent products, built to solve real-world problems.
Ark is an independent venture built on a career shipping software. Every product starts with a problem I've spent time understanding, gets tested with actual users, and only stays alive if it gets used. Two live so far: Reef Analysis and BusBuddy UK.
Spend time with the problem. Talk to the people who have it. Get a clear picture before jumping to a solution.
Ship a small, honest version to market. See what people actually use — not what they say they will.
If it lands, keep building. If it doesn't, respect the signal and move on.
Two live products. Two very different audiences.
The only reef app that sees your full water story. ICP results from eight labs, six live monitoring devices, and home tests — brought together in one calm dashboard, so drift is spotted before it becomes a problem. Completely free. No trial, no paywall.
reefanalysis.com →Live bus tracking made for kids, trusted by parents. Real-time positions from the Bus Open Data Service, term-time-aware schedules, and arriving-soon alerts — so nobody misses the school bus. iOS, Android, and web.
busbuddy.uk →Using one of the products? Building something similar? Say hello.
