I'm not a developer (I want to say that upfront because everything that follows makes a lot more sense with that context.) If you check out my LinkedIn, you'll see my career has been operations, supply chain, project management and ISMS. 7 years at Nokia (before the fall) managing global demand networks . A food truck - turned - take - out turned events business in South Africa. HMD Global as Head of New Business Services. A string of consulting engagements via my company Äctvli taking care of post-M&A integration, process optimisation, ESG, PMO leading 12 concurrent integration projects simultaneously. information security. I finished an MBA last December in 2024. All the stuff we're told to say on LinkedIn to inflate our egos and credibility (like anyone nowadays really gives a sh*t; all they want is your business - come on, you are all doing that here as well ;) ) All this is to say that I have never, in my life, written a line of production code. And somewhere in the mid 2010s I thought I should have learned to. But in June 2025 I built an AI PC. Helloooo agents... and tools. God bless all you AI engineering geniuses. You took a thing, and made it so non-techies like myself can unleash the ideas in our heads. I started experimenting with Ollama, WebUI, n8n, etc.. massive shout out to Network Chuck for teaching me. I'd already been using AI since around 2021; ChatGPT. and I hated that I didn't own my prompts and questions. In my ISM world, and my client's data, I refused to use anything online. Hence the offline AI PC. from there I learned about Claude on terminal. Then i started building with it. Then I couldn't stop. It's crazy. I built tool after tool for my own use. an Email Sanitizer through Python t hat redacts any and all sensitive information (addresses, names, phone numbers, products - gives them random codenames etc.. so I can add to my knowledge base and then use it to help with preparing reports or tasks). An exel formula - just descibe what you want and voila.. ISO, DORA, PMP templates to support my PMO and certification for clients seeking those. Those are just for my internal use. then I realized others might need some tools I use for myself. So done 9 SaaS products. I know how that sounds. It sounds like either a lie or a disaster but it's neither, it's just what I've always done: define the problem, design the process, iterate fast, measure what matters. I'm not claiming any of these are perfect... and THAT taught me something and was the antithesis of CanIShip. (did I use that word correctly?) The idea came from a problem I kept hitting personally. I'd finish building something and have no reliable way to know if it was actually ready to ship. It bothered me more than it probably would bother a developer. In any physical production you don't ship a product without a quality gate. And before AI assisted ccoding tools (I REFUSE to call it "vibe coding" which is about as hacky as "growth hacking") software was no different. So I built the quality gate. AND IT FRIGGING WORKS! Here, I'll Claude explain: "CanIShip runs eight automated audit layers" (..that I will include here, but 6 of my own that I won't), "on any web app URL and returns a ShipScore: - Playwright functional tests (navigation, broken interactions) - UX issue detection (dead ends, missing states) - WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility via axe-core - Lighthouse performance and Core Web Vitals - OWASP security headers scan - Broken links and network failures - SEO health (title, meta, Open Graph, sitemap, robots.txt) - Mobile readiness at 375px — viewport meta, horizontal scroll, touch target sizes The whole thing runs in minutes and produces a report with specific findings, severity ratings, and fix recommendations. The ShipScore is 0–100 with a Ship It / Don't Ship / Conditional verdict." Ok, I'm back now. I then audited my own tool with my own tool, HA! It scored 75/100 initially which is a non-shippinh quality. I've since fixed most of the issues it found on itself and it's bow at 92/100! That felt like a very appropriate way to test it. I've tested on a lot y'alls apps, and some of you have the >90 score, but a lot of you are below the 60s. the most common denominator of success is the one above 90 all are engineers, and have teams. this tool is not for you. It is for everyone else; morons like me. Yup. I built this for solo builders like me — people shipping fast without a QA team. And I need to reach them. My consulting background means my LinkedIn network is enterprise people who don't need this. Pricing is Free tier is 3 audits/month. Builder is $19/month for 15 audits. Studio is $49/month with unlimited audit. I am currently working on providing a Docker self-host license. I have no idea if that's right. The eight layers cover a lot, but I know they don't cover auth-gated flows, load testing, or real manual QA. I'm honest about that in the product. What else would you want to see? I'm posting this partly because someone told me the imposter syndrome I feel doesn't go away by waiting until you feel ready. So here it is. Built by an operations guy from Argentina, living in Finland, who build an AI PC and hasn't stopped building The tool is at caniship.actvli.com
