🚀 Featured Project

PlainDoc 📄

Live SaaS: https://plaindoc.app — Built and operated solo

PlainDoc is an AI-powered employment contract analysis tool for Filipino workers. Upload a contract, get a plain-language breakdown with risk flags, missing protections, and action recommendations in about 30 seconds.

Tech Stack:

• Next.js 16 (App Router + Turbopack), TypeScript strict mode
• Claude API (Anthropic, Sonnet) for document analysis
• Supabase (PostgreSQL) + Clerk auth
• PayMongo for ₱ payments (GCash, Maya, QR Ph, cards)
• Tailwind CSS v4 + shadcn/ui
• Vercel edge deployment + Upstash Redis rate limiting

What I shipped end-to-end:

• ⚡ Real-time contract ingestion + Claude analysis pipeline
• 🔒 In-memory document processing — contracts are never stored
• 💳 Full payment integration with subscription + page-pack accounting
• 🌏 Cross-references against Philippine labor law and minimum wage orders
• 🛡️ Rate limiting, page quotas, RA 10173 (PH Data Privacy Act) compliance
• 📈 Live in production — real users, real ₱ revenue, runs on autopilot
