## Projects

- [Seedflows.ai](https://umbrincraft.com/work/seedflows): AI studio for YouTube storytellers: script, voices with real emotion, characters that stay the same in every scene, images, video and upload in one pipeline. Live: https://seedflows.ai
- [Seedflows Training](https://umbrincraft.com/work/seedflows-training): Fine-tuning centre for custom image models (LoRA) on serverless GPUs. The product backend never talks to a GPU vendor directly.
- [PartitionPilot](https://umbrincraft.com/work/partitionpilot): No more flying blind in Kafka: shows who uses which topics, what it costs, and replays messages safely without disturbing production. Live: https://www.partitionpilot.com
- [AsiafeedTech](https://umbrincraft.com/work/asiafeedtech): The signals Western founders are missing from Asia: AI, EV, robotics and startup news from 30+ sources, scored for relevance by AI, translated and delivered as a daily report. Live: https://www.asiafeedtech.com
- [Distribution engine](https://umbrincraft.com/work/distribution-engine): Every AsiafeedTech story goes out automatically, on schedule, to LinkedIn, X and the Buttondown and Beehiiv newsletters. One feed, four channels, no manual posting.
- [IteraMachina](https://umbrincraft.com/work/iteramachina): An AI livestream and content engine built to run 24/7: generates, renders and streams video around the clock.
- [YouTube pipeline](https://umbrincraft.com/work/youtube-pipeline): The first fully automated video pipeline: script, voice, Whisper subtitles, FFmpeg render and upload to YouTube. The groundwork for Seedflows.
- [Storybuilder](https://umbrincraft.com/work/storybuilder): Image pipeline for epic fantasy videos: all visual assets of a story generated automatically through Google Imagen.
- [CAN-Bus E-Bike](https://umbrincraft.com/work/canbus-ebike): Reading live data straight from an e-bike's CANopen bus. Own PCB, designed and brought up with an ESP32, from schematic to running firmware.
