Earlier products & experiments

What was tried, what each taught, and what survived

Not every experiment becomes a capability. These nine are kept visible on purpose: each one taught something specific that now shows up in the current solutions — proof discipline, governance thinking, local-first constraints, and scope honesty. None were deleted; each was either promoted or filed here with its lesson.

Education product

Workflow Garden

A public learning site for issue-driven AI development workflows.

Lesson: Education content needs maintenance ownership, not just publishing.

Developer tool

GitHub Canvas Monitor

A spatial monitoring wall for active GitHub repositories.

Lesson: Dashboards only work when they lead to a decision, not just a view.

Review tool

Proof Pack

A launch-review app that turns a URL into a concise critique pack.

Lesson: Provenance needs a permanent home; it cannot live in a chat transcript.

Decision tool

Choice Compass

A weighted decision helper for comparing a small set of options.

Lesson: Simplicity beats feature count, but a simple tool still needs a real job.

Productivity product

Mark Notes

A calm, local-first notes workspace with web, desktop, and mobile shells.

Lesson: Local-first is a real product constraint, not a marketing word.

Product prototype

Singulyr PACT

An end-to-end rental operating-system prototype for Singapore.

Lesson: Prototype-to-production is a gap that scope discipline has to close.

Adapted AI deployment

OpenReview Deployment

A self-hosted pull-request review service configured for model routing.

Lesson: Attributed forks still ship; adapting maintained OSS beats rebuilding it.

Property platform

Singulyr

A Singapore property workflow platform with a production lead and content stack.

Lesson: A launch site can be real product infrastructure, not just a landing page.

Personal site

rajeevg.com

This portfolio and writing site, built for clear technical storytelling.

Lesson: This site itself is a living product; every article is a maintained asset.
