Comicfolio

Coming soon

Your collection is a portfolio. Scan it. Value it. Watch it grow.

Comicfolio is an iPhone app for comic collectors — think Robinhood for your longboxes. Point your camera at each cover for a second apiece and it identifies the book, estimates its grade with AI, and values it from real sold comps. Your whole collection becomes a living portfolio: total value, gain/loss, trends, top movers — plus a shareable public shelf.

  • Scan mode Bulk-log hundreds of books at 1–2 seconds each; auto-detect, auto-crop, swipe to confirm.
  • AI pre-grade Front + back photos yield an estimated grade range and condition breakdown.
  • Real values Backed by actual sold comps, never inflated asking prices; every value shows its freshness.
  • Portfolio dashboard Total value, trend charts, cost basis, gain/loss, top movers.
  • Public shelf Share a read-only web page of your collection; values and cost basis stay private by default.

Whutzthat Ledger

Live

Small-business books that stay auditable without becoming a second job.

Bookkeeping for one small business, built because QuickBooks was too much app for too much money. Transactions come in from connected bank accounts, get categorized once, and post as real double-entry journal entries underneath — so the books reconcile exactly instead of approximately. Receipts, reconciliation, fixed assets, and a clean export for the tax preparer all live in the same place. Desktop for the bookkeeping, phone for the receipts.

  • Double-entry engine Every categorization posts a balanced journal entry in whole cents — never floats — with a full audit log behind it.
  • Bank sync Plaid pulls transactions from connected accounts, with CSV import kept as a permanent fallback.
  • Receipts inbox Upload from any device and match a receipt to its transaction, so the support stays attached to the entry.
  • Reconcile & assets Reconcile accounts against statements and track fixed assets with bookkeeping depreciation.
  • Initiatives & exports Tag every line to a line of business for per-initiative P&L, then export the whole set of records for an accountant.

Private — built for our own books, not a public product.

Whutzthat?

Coming soon

A game of saying it wrong 'til it sounds right.

A family party game built from the word game we played as kids. Every card is a famous phrase spelled out in nonsense — read “Pea Sock Ache” out loud until somebody yells “piece of cake!” Four modes, 600 cards, and two of the modes are made for the folding iPhone Duo: one turns it into a tiny laptop that films the chaos, the other stands it up as a buzzer for the whole table.

  • Four ways to play Classic and Hot Potato on any iPhone; Face Off and Showdown on the iPhone Duo.
  • 600 cards Ten family-friendly decks, a locked 18+ After Dark deck, and add-on packs.
  • Blooper Reel Face Off films the reader's best fails so you can watch them back.
  • No ads, no accounts Open it and play — offline, with Family Sharing for packs.
