About

I’m a product designer and builder. I've spent my career turning ideas into working products. I helped design and build fundraising software, shipped native iOS apps, and created ecommerce experiences. I’ve also built things offline, like wooden furniture, a small farm, a landscaping business, and a mobile tool showroom. I enjoy solving practical problems and making things that people actually use. Today I’m building FlexCalls!

FlexCalls - Get paid when people want to talk to you

People already want to talk to you. FlexCalls lets you get paid for it. Share your link so people can book a call and pay per minute to talk with you by phone or Zoom. FlexCalls handles scheduling, calls, and automatic billing so you can focus on the conversation. Perfect for professionals and creators who want to monetize their audience without turning it into a full consulting business. No subscription fees. Use it as much or as little as you want; we only get paid when you do.

I'm good at building. Marketing is a different story.

Hey I'm James, a software developer from Australia with 20+ years building things professionally.

Most of my career I've been the person behind the scenes solving hard technical problems, shipping reliable software, making other people's ideas work. Unravl is the first thing I've built entirely for myself, and now I'm figuring out the part they don't teach developers: how to actually get it in front of people who might find it useful.

No funding. No growth team. No playbook. Just me, the product, and a lot of learning in public.

If you've been down this road builder trying to find an audience I'd genuinely love to hear what worked for you. And if Unravl sounds like something you'd use, even better.
