COLLECTOS · FOUNDER & PRODUCT MAKER
I conceived, designed, and built Collectos end to end—an AI-assisted product that helps people document meaningful objects and continue the stories around them. It is also my laboratory for modern product leadership: strategy, UX, brand, architecture, implementation, and iteration working as one system.
Founder vision · Product strategy · UX and brand · Hands-on build
Create a calm, durable product for documenting what matters and why.
Structure deeply personal meaning without reducing it to sterile metadata or social performance.
Collectos gave me direct ownership of every consequential decision—from the emotional premise and content model to the interface, technical architecture, and path to a live product.
Design around identity, memory, and care—not monetary value, transactions, feeds, or gamification.
Connect Collections, Items, Stories, and evolving Events so meaning can deepen over time.
Use AI to reduce friction, organize information, and accelerate delivery while keeping human judgment in control.
Designed mobile-first, Collectos makes it easy to capture an object, add its context, organize it into a collection, and return as the story evolves. The flow stays focused in the moment without sacrificing depth.
The end-to-end flow moves from capture to organization to reflection, showing how the product turns a quick mobile action into something people can build on over time.
The admin experience provides the operational foundation for moderation, user and content management, configuration, automation, and quality as the product scales.
I built Collectos with Next.js, React, Tailwind, shadcn/ui, Radix, Supabase, Cloudinary, and Vercel. The architecture supports secure data, rich media, accessible components, AI-assisted workflows, and rapid iteration without treating technical decisions as separate from the product experience.
