About

I’m an engineer, entrepreneur, and avid traveler. I’ve worked at Microsoft and Spotify and built websites for brands like Best Buy and Peloton. When I’m not coding or consulting, I run a fingerboard business, explore new cities with my schnauzer, and obsess over tissue culture—so much that I built XPlant, a dashboard to help hobbyists log and optimize plant experiments.

System 2 - Cognitive bias firewall for smarter decisions

System 2 is your cognitive bias firewall. Flag biases in your thinking, notes, and decisions to engage deliberate, rational reasoning when it matters most.

Bill AI - AI billing made simple for developers.

Building AI products is complex enough — your billing shouldn’t be. BillAI is a developer-first platform that handles usage tracking, invoicing, subscriptions, and revenue splits across all your AI apps. Track tokens, compute time, and vCPU usage; automate payments; split revenue with collaborators; and get clear metrics across apps and end-users — all from one clean dashboard.

👋 Hi Product Hunt Fam!

I m Rob, an engineer, tinkerer, and plant enthusiast. Over the years I ve dabbled in everything from BMX, composting, drift RC, fingerboarding to vermiculture, but what really hooked me recently is plant tissue culture. Not just the plants themselves but the data, tools, and processes behind it.

Outside of plants and code, I ve worked at Microsoft and Spotify, built websites for brands like Best Buy and Peloton, and travel the world with my little schnauzer. I m excited to connect with this community, share what I ve been building, and learn from other makers and enthusiasts!
