Three projects across data platforms, AI products, and desktop software. Each built end-to-end — concept, design, build, ship.

01 Data platform · 2025—2026

Rapchure

The definitive UK rap index.

A real-time UK rap charting platform tracking 1,200+ artists. Hybrid data pipeline — Spotify API for discovery, custom Playwright scrapers for monthly listener and play-count data. Daily automated runs, weekly chart generation, and historical compounding data that captures peak positions, weeks charted, and streak data the moment they happen.

FeedMe

Voice-built news feeds, deployed in seconds.

Speak a topic to a voice agent and FeedMe builds a curated news feed in real time. Firecrawl scrapes the live web for trusted sources, Claude summarises each article into a readable briefing, and the user picks delivery — email, WhatsApp, Telegram, or a public discover page. Submitted to the ElevenHacks x Firecrawl hackathon.

03 Desktop app · 2026

Priora

Your wants, ranked.

A desktop app that asks you to rank what you want most. Not another to-do list — a forced-priority system where you drag items into order, mark them achieved, and keep a timestamped log of what you actually pulled off. Built on Tauri for native Windows performance with a web-based UI.

About · 01

I'm Alyx — an independent builder based in the UK, working with founders, small teams, and creators to ship websites and digital tools that do something real.

My approach is end-to-end. From the first sketch to the final deploy, I handle product thinking, visual design, build, and delivery as one continuous loop. No handoffs to lose. No teams to coordinate. Just the work, shipped.
