Our work

Systems we've built for service businesses

Every project starts with a broken workflow or a gap in the operation. Here's what we built to close it.

Custom fabrication · Chicago

TaserDesignsLive

Website redesign · Owner portal · Project management

TaserDesigns portfolio section showing a built-in entertainment wall and a basement remodel

The problem

Outdated website, and no single place to manage past, current, and upcoming builds and exhibits, customers, or the work worth showing.

What we built

  • New website for custom fabrication and exhibit builds, with a portfolio of past work
  • Owner portal organizing past, current, and future builds and exhibits
  • Customer records kept with the projects they belong to
  • Client portal where customers follow jobs, see progress photos, and approve work
  • Site content managed from the portal, no code required

Live at taserdesign.com. Built over a couple of months.

Creative studio · Chicago area

DerinStudioLive

Web design · E-commerce · Booking system

DerinStudio gallery wall: an interactive room for browsing the portfolio, with a featured photo on the wall

The problem

No professional web presence. No way to showcase work, sell prints, or accept shoot bookings online. The studio's output had no home.

What we built

  • Portfolio site and storefront in one: browse work, buy prints, book shoots
  • E-commerce for acrylic prints in any size with automated order flow
  • Integrated shoot booking with calendar management
  • Built to grow, structured for expanding collections and services

Live. Client finalizing photo content for active promotion.

Auto repair software · Co-founded product

My Vehicle Health

Inspection platform · Shop workflow · Customer portal

My Vehicle Health on a phone: a tech's engine checklist, the customer's report, and the owner's portal

The problem

Shops wanted a clear way to show customers what a tech found and get repairs approved quickly. Owners wanted one service history that stays with the car.

What we built

  • Online booking with VIN lookup, limited to times the shop's bays, staff, and equipment can cover
  • Shop board and bay board for the front desk
  • Inspections on a phone or tablet with notes, photos, and video
  • Customer report with findings first and approve or decline on each item
  • Vehicle record that follows the VIN across visits and shops
  • Owner portal where customers choose which shops can see their history

A product Blueframe co-founded and built.

Auto repair · Chicago area

Colonial Auto RepairLive

Dual-portal web app · Appointment management · Membership system · Admin tooling

Colonial Auto Repair customer portal: live repair status with stage tracker, assigned mechanic, current step, and cost estimate

The problem

Shop ran on existing software with no customer-facing layer. No online booking, no appointment history, no membership management. Everything handled manually by staff. No centralized reporting.

What we built

  • Customer portal: online booking, appointment history, membership management
  • In-app messaging between customers and staff about their vehicle
  • Admin portal: full appointment dashboard, customer management
  • Automated end-of-day reports and cash drawer management
  • Built alongside existing software, with zero disruption to current operations

Built around existing shop software, not instead of it.

Restaurant · Chicago area

Royal Cantonese

Custom POS system · AI phone receptionist · Delivery integration · Website redesign

Royal Cantonese staff POS: menu on the left, an open table check with Send to Kitchen and Send to Bar on the right

The problem

Customers relied entirely on staff to order and pay. Phone orders required employees to stop mid-service and relay orders manually. Three delivery platforms managed separately. No carryout tracking. Paper reservations.

What we built

  • AI phone receptionist takes phone orders and pushes to staff for one-tap approval
  • Self-service ordering and payment, no staff required
  • KDS integration routes orders directly to kitchen and bar
  • UberEats, DoorDash, and Grubhub unified into one system
  • Live carryout order tracking for customers
  • Online reservation booking with live staff dashboard

Full infrastructure teardown and rebuild, installed in 21 days.

Internal ops · Blueframe Systems

Blueframe War RoomLive

AI agent system · Custom dashboard · Workflow automation · CRM integration

Blueframe War Room dashboard with agent status, daily priorities, and lead counts

The problem

Running a service business with tasks, clients, revenue, and content scattered across separate tools. No central visibility. Every recurring task done manually or forgotten. Nothing talked to anything else.

What we built

  • 13 specialized AI agents, each with a defined role (COO, Dev, Sales, Finance, CRM, and more)
  • 20 automated scheduled tasks running daily with zero human input
  • Full client pipeline from intake form to active client to project win
  • Real-time dashboard with morning briefing, Jarvis voice orb, and Stripe revenue tracking
  • Notion CRM sync: leads, active clients, and wins visible without switching tools
  • Agent Thoughts feed: every agent logs what it worked on, visible in real time
  • Deliverables system: agents post work as pending deliverables to approve without leaving the dashboard

Built to run Blueframe first. Now the template for client deployments.
