Products I've founded and built

Linkinize is a collaborative bookmark manager for teams — a browser extension and web app that gives a company one searchable, permissioned home for every link its people share.

The problem

Inside most teams, knowledge lives in links: dashboards, docs, staging environments, Notion pages, internal tools. Those links are scattered across Slack threads, wikis, and personal bookmarks — employees burn roughly 2.5 hours a month just re-finding them, and every new hire starts the hunt from zero.

The product

Linkinize moves team links into shared, tag-organized workspaces with instant search, granular permissions, and sync across devices. It meets people where they already work: a browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, and Brave, keyboard shortcuts for capture and recall, one-click import of existing browser bookmarks, and a Confluence integration. For larger organizations there's SAML single sign-on and AES-256 encryption; for individuals, public bio-link and search pages.

My role

Everything a founder does: product strategy, interface design, the full build (Next.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Cloudflare), the extension across five browser targets, pricing, and go-to-market. It runs as a freemium SaaS — free for small teams, paid tiers as workspaces and members scale.

What it taught me

• Distribution is product: living inside the browser, where links are born, mattered more than any feature on the marketing page.
• Enterprise readiness (SSO, encryption, permissions) is a sales conversation, not an engineering afterthought — building it early opened doors a feature list never did.
• A solo founder's stack must be boring on purpose: fewer moving parts means shipping on weekends doesn't break Mondays.
