About

Solo developer making privacy-first tools. My main project, ScanEdit Pro (live now), is a client-side OCR document editor: it runs entirely in your browser and your files never leave your device — because handling your own documents shouldn't mean handing them to someone else's cloud. I'm currently building a little sister to ScanEdit Pro (focused on images), an AI writing tool, and another powerful AI agent. In different ways, they're all about the same thing: giving one person the means to make sense of information, tell their own story, and push back when the systems around them are too big to face alone. My ambition isn't to build the next big platform. It's to make small, independent tools that put power back in the hands of the person using them — privacy by default, no gatekeepers.

ScanEdit Pro - Edit text in scanned PDFs and images — no uploads, ever

ScanEdit Pro lets you edit scanned PDFs and images directly in your browser — everything runs client-side, nothing is ever uploaded. Run OCR, then select a word, line, sentence, or paragraph right on the document and edit it in place. The background is cleaned automatically; font, size, style, and color are yours to adjust until the fix blends in. Reposition text by dragging or with arrow keys. Multi-page PDF export included. Built for legal, medical, and confidential-document workflows.
