The full journey

Eight years of B2B sales, from entrepreneurship to consulting and media. After three years running Europ’Esthetic, I chose salaried work in French-speaking Switzerland, first in wealth advisory, then communications, before joining the media industry at Tamedia. Now I build AI tools that teams use.

Products built

Eight personal products: four deployed on the web, four macOS tools I run locally.

Deployed on the web
  • VelqMulti-agent system · velq.fr

    An orchestrator routes work to specialised agents. Nothing counts as verified without the source page that proves it, cited with its URL.

    Case study ›
  • DealCraftSales enablement · live

    It takes incomplete meeting notes and returns a proposal, a follow-up, the objections to expect and the next step to take.

    Case study ›
  • JustesseMobile web app · Cloudflare + Claude

    A screenshot of a conversation goes in, a verdict comes out: reply, wait, follow up, move on, or send nothing. Deployed; the closed beta has not started yet.

    See it live ↗
  • BuildBattleMultiplayer game · Durable Objects

    2 to 8 players, one brief, a 20-minute clock held by the server. In ranked mode the brief is drawn from a private seed, so the host cannot see it before anyone else.

    Case study ›
Personal macOS tools
  • RomainOS Command CenterElectron macOS app · local

    An agent loop proposing maintenance work on my repositories: 282 candidate actions, 2 auto-merged.

    Case study ›
  • QuotaGuardmacOS app · Swift 6, menu bar

    Tracks my AI tool quotas. 59 providers inventoried, 4 integrations shipped, a written reason for each of the 55 left out.

    In daily use
  • ClipSafemacOS app · Swift 6, zero dependencies

    Clipboard history encrypted with AES-256-GCM. The sandbox declares no network entitlement at all, so macOS denies it any connection.

    In daily use
  • BalaimacOS app · disk audit

    Measures what the disk could give back without deleting anything: the cleanup engine is compiled off and the build refuses to unlock it.
