James D.

I help founders and small teams take products from idea to launch. If you've got an idea, maybe some designs, and no one to build it, that's where I come in. I cover the whole build: the app itself, payments, admin dashboards, integrations, hosting. You'll get plain-English updates the whole way through, and if I think something in the brief could be done better, I'll say so. Over the last few years I've co-founded an AI SaaS, shipped a platform that's now in 300+ UK schools, and built an app solo for a £96m-turnover UK enterprise. Some work: 👉 Reputation Genie. AI SaaS I co-founded and built end to end. Helps businesses challenge unfair Google reviews. Next.js dashboard, queued AI analysis with Node and BullMQ, Google OAuth and Google Business Profile integration, full Stripe billing. 👉 DanceToSchool. Teaching platform now in 300+ UK schools. Full Next.js build from Adobe XD designs: admin dashboard, multi-tier Stripe subscriptions, Pipedrive CRM, AWS S3. 👉 Fuel Finder. My own iOS app, one of the first on the UK's new fuel pricing scheme. React Native and Expo on a Cloudflare Workers backend. 4.7K downloads with no paid marketing, 4.5 stars, and App Store conversion 3x the platform average. 👉 B2B assessment platform. Built end to end for a UK SaaS, now used by 1,000+ employees across several large UK organisations. Next.js on Vercel, Supabase, automated email reminders, and personalised PDF action plans generated on completion. I'm probably a good fit if: - You're a founder with an idea or designs and need the whole thing built - You've got an MVP or half-finished build that needs taking the rest of the way - You're a small team that needs someone to own features end to end - You want AI features added that actually do something useful If you're after one developer who can take your product from idea to launch and keep you in the loop the whole way, I can help you get there.
