Things I’ve built.
Document approval
It replaced a subscription and paid for itself.
A multi-property hospitality group was running document sign-off through a third-party e-signature service. I replaced it with a purpose-built approval app on the Microsoft licences they already held — requests, routing, approvals and a full audit trail in one place.
It saves roughly $5,000 a year in licence fees alone, and it’s now the app the group uses most.
The licence saving is the smaller half of it. Requests route themselves to the right approver, and anything still sitting unapproved triggers an automatic daily reminder — so nothing stalls quietly in an inbox and nobody spends their week chasing signatures.
Golf guest check-in
3 gaps closed in 30 seconds a guest.
Player emails were captured for some guests and not others. Where guests had travelled from was recorded nowhere. And no player had ever signed a health and safety waiver.
Guests now check themselves in on an iPad in their own language, accept the safety acknowledgement and sign for it. Anything the app learns that the booking system doesn’t hold is flagged to the pro shop and chased at the end of each day.
It was built in the courses’ own colours and type, so it reads as part of the property rather than a piece of software bolted onto it. Guest-facing screens are brand, not just plumbing.
Their booking system doesn’t offer kiosk check-in in this market, and the waiver is only available as a paid third-party add-on — quoted at over $15,000 a year across the two courses.
The app I built does both, on Microsoft licences they already held. That’s more than $15,000 a year they now don’t spend.
Major spend approvals
2 to 4 weeks, down to about 1.
Capital and major spend requests routed by threshold, with drafts, rejections and approval numbering handled inside the app rather than in somebody’s email.
Requests used to take 2 to 4 weeks to work their way through. They now average about a week. The same daily reminder chases anything still outstanding, so nothing gets buried and quietly forgotten.
Everyone can see where a request sits, and finance can see what’s waiting on them.
For this one group, the apps on this page have displaced more than $20,000 a year of software subscriptions — all built on the Microsoft platform they were already paying for. No new subscription, and no black box: each one is handed over with documentation and a named owner inside the business, so the day-to-day sits with their team. When something needs changing — a threshold, an approver, a step in the workflow — that’s a short conversation rather than a project.
