Shipped, not just designed
Three separate products, each built and shipped solo over months, not weeks. Lighter design-only pieces are in the Visual Work Gallery.
Add screenshot at /images/projects/elevify-landing.pngA business document generator that produces professional, ready-to-send templates in about a minute: finance, HR, operations, sales, and startup documents, across 83+ templates in six categories.
- Problem
- Small businesses, freelancers, and consultants need professional documents constantly, invoices, proposals, contracts, HR paperwork, but hiring a designer or specialist for each one is slow and expensive. Generic templates full of placeholder text aren't good enough to send to a client.
- Role
- Sole founder and builder, end to end: product, document library, design system, and development.
- What shipped
- A full document-generation platform: pick a template, fill a plain-English form, download a finished Word and PDF file. 83+ templates across Finance & Billing, HR & People, Legal & Contracts, Operations & Projects, Sales & Marketing, and Startup & Business, plus industry-specific proposal templates for IT services, construction, and professional services. Pay-as-you-go, credit pack, and unlimited monthly plans.
- Traction
- Live at elevify.net. Launched on Product Hunt.
Add screenshot at /images/projects/legalease-landing.pngA legal document template platform built specifically for Kenya, the UK, and common-law jurisdictions, generating jurisdiction-compliant contracts, tenancy agreements, employment documents, and more in seconds.
- Problem
- Legal documents are jurisdiction-specific: a Kenyan employment contract needs NSSF and SHIF fields, a UK one needs to reference the Employment Rights Act and IR35. Off-the-shelf US templates don't hold up, and full legal drafting for every routine document is slow and costly.
- Role
- Sole founder and builder, end to end: product, legal template library, design system, and development.
- What shipped
- A dedicated legal-document platform covering Kenya, England & Wales, and international common-law jurisdictions: employment contracts, NDAs, tenancy agreements, IP licenses, partnership documents, affidavits, and more, with jurisdiction-specific compliance fields (Kenya: NSSF/SHIF, KRA PIN; UK: ERA 1996, IR35) and one-click translation into 12 languages.
- Traction
- Live at legalease.elevify.net.
Add screenshot at /images/projects/nyumbanii-landing.pngA property management platform built around M-Pesa, handling tenant and landlord dashboards and payment reconciliation for a market where most rent moves through mobile money. Design by Elo's partner; built solo by Elo. Live and in use.
- Problem
- Property management tools built for other markets assume card or bank-based rent payments. In Kenya, most transactions run through M-Pesa, and reconciling those payments against tenants, units, and landlords by hand doesn't scale.
- Role
- Sole builder. Design was done by Elo's partner.
- What shipped
- Dashboards for landlords and tenants, with M-Pesa payment reconciliation as the core of the system.
- Traction
- Live and in active use.
