About Nicholas

One builder. Twenty-six products. Shipped end to end.

I'm a one-person product and AI studio. I take an idea from an empty file to something that actually runs in production, and I don't stop at the demo. The design, the code, the servers, the unglamorous parts — all of it is me.

I'm Nicholas Nyaung. I build software fast, and I build the whole thing — the parts a company would normally split across five different specialists. I started this studio because I got tired of waiting. Waiting for the right team, the budget, somebody's sign-off. It was always easier to just build the tool I needed than to wait for someone else to. Do that enough times and you end up with twenty-six products shipped across six different areas.

The range is the point. GrowNet is a growth platform that runs inbound and outbound together, with a lock down in the database so two automations can never fight over the same person — I ran the whole loop twice myself, as the client, before I trusted it. LeadNet catches leads so reliably that even when billing lapses, it keeps catching them; they wait in a vault until you come back. ReachNet does cold email the honest way: someone replies or unsubscribes, the sending stops, no dark patterns. And Investor Alpha Hub follows 28+ institutional investors across seven categories, pulled from nine different sources.

Then it widens out. ScoutNet hunts down local businesses, scores them, and writes and sends real pitches. Jarvis is a voice assistant with a holographic build engine — it renders its own 3D models, checks them against a reference image, and fixes its own mistakes. On the quant side, Stock Trader V7 has traded hands-off on an Alpaca paper account since June 2026. Its backtest originally read 20.7% CAGR; I re-ran it under an independent validation harness at realistic costs, found that optimistic, and published the corrected 19.0% against a -36.6% max drawdown instead. Next to it sits a futures system I tested across 26 years of data. The realtor site I built for Shanty Soerjono is live at shanty-realestate.com — motion, 3D, the works, with an AI probate assistant built in. And MINTSET, my finance-content engine, posts every single day without me lifting a finger.

One thing runs through all of it. Every product was built solo, start to finish, and the ones that count are running in production right now. I don't hand off the hard 20 percent to somebody else. I'm the one who designs the screens, writes the backend, sets up the servers, and stays on the hook when the thing actually has to work.

Principles

What I build by.

Ship it, then prove it

A product isn't real until it runs in production. Seven of mine do — two paying clients, a property-intelligence app, a grounded tax assistant, a creator finance tool, a trading engine, and a content engine posting daily. I'd rather ship one thing that works than demo ten that don't.

Honest by design

ReachNet stops sending the moment someone unsubscribes. LeadNet never holds your data hostage. The honest behavior is built into the system, not bolted on as policy — because the system is the only thing that actually enforces it.

End to end, no handoffs

Design, frontend, backend, infrastructure, the AI layer — I own the whole stack. Nothing falls through the cracks between specialists because there are no cracks. There's just me, and the thing has to work.

How I work

From idea to shipped.

Frame the real problem

Before any code, I get specific about what success looks like and what would make it fail. A growth platform that lets two automations collide isn't a feature gap — it's the whole problem. I find that early.

Build the whole thing

I move quickly because I'm not coordinating across a team — and I build the full slice, not a prototype. Frontend, backend, infra, and the AI layer come together at once, so what you see is what actually runs.

Ship & stay accountable

I verify against reality — full loops, live deploys, real backtests — and put it in production. When something's running for real, I'm the one who keeps it running. That's the job.

Let's talk

Have something that needs building?

Client work, a freelance project, or a partnership — if it needs to go from idea to production without a five-person team, that's exactly what I do.
