Eliminating everyday software friction

About

Hi, I’m Joshua. I build tools that take the friction out of everyday software. Right now, I’m shipping Blank for macOS: a smoother way to fill and sign PDF forms. I’m focused on the small interactions that make everyday tasks easier. I share the product decisions, experiments, and failures along the way. I’m here to learn from other makers and hear about the software quirks you wish someone would fix.

Blank - A smoother way to fill and sign PDF forms on your Mac

Filling out a PDF should be a small task. Blank focuses on the little frustrations: nudging text into place, retyping details, and fields that don't behave as expected. Fill and sign on your Mac with saved details, reusable signatures, and local drafts. We're continually refining field detection, text placement, and the steps from opening a form to sending it back. Try all features on three documents, with no watermark or account. One-time purchase. macOS 26+.
