CritForge, campaign mgmt. for D&D GMs.

About

Co-founder of Stylus Nexus, where we bring enterprise-grade engineering to the things people are actually passionate about. Our first product is CritForge, an AI campaign companion for Dungeons & Dragons game masters that generates NPCs, plots, encounters, and maps grounded in the GM's own world. I've built software as a developer, business analyst, project manager, and governance lead across fintech, design, and education, and I bring that discipline to CritForge across product strategy, full-stack build (Next.js, React), and relentless experimentation and QA to test AI models, prompts, and guardrails into reliable output. My job, in short: connect technical rigor with the culture and communities tools like this are built for.

I made Soundstellation for people who like to pull musical threads

I m a music nerd, and I built Soundstellation for the kind of listening where one band member, producer credit, or side project can send you down a rabbit hole for hours.

Start with a musician or band, choose the exact one you mean, and follow the people, groups, and connections around them over time. I wanted the map to be honest about itself, too. It shows where connections come from and where the current view stops. Missing information is not turned into a neat story.

My first Product Hunt launch: I built a map for music rabbit holes

Hey Product Hunt, I m Eve, and this is my first launch here.
I write and review music for Brainwashed.com. By day, I ve been an analyst, a developer, and now work in application governance. So a lot of my professional life has involved figuring out how complicated systems fit together, where the data came from, and when a system needs to admit what it does not know. Soundstellation is where those two parts of my life finally met.

It lets you start with a musician or band, choose the exact person or group you mean, and follow the connections around them over time. You can see where a connection comes from and where the map currently runs out. Curated constellations are coming next: scene and genre paths shaped by people who know their corners of music. If that might be you, I d love to hear from you.

Soundstellation - Follow the visual connections that make music alive.

Soundstellation turns source-backed connections between artists and groups into explorable constellations. Follow a path sideways, see what supports it, and discover human-curated scenes without pretending there is one definitive map.
