Particularly, my latest achievement involved the creation of a cutting-edge human resources management platform.

Freebiesketch

Freebiesketch was a personal project where resources from Sketch, Figma and Adobe were combined XD

2017

The tool allowed you to schedule posts for most social networks at the time. One of the biggest milestones was the ability to schedule Instagram Stories, a feature that no other platform, including big ones like Hootsuite, offered at the time.

Outstanding Achievement

The ability to schedule Instagram Stories was a game-changer and became a key feature that differentiated our platform from others.

Sales Decision

In 2019, I received a purchase offer and decided to sell the platform. Lack of experience in dealing with certain challenges related to product growth influenced my decision to accept the offer.

This project was an enriching experience that taught me a lot about developing social media management tools and the importance of being prepared for the challenges of business growth.

2010
Loopgod Play

In 2010, I created a project similar to Spotify, but focused on Christian music. The mission was to offer all Christian music for free, using the Google/YouTube and Spotify APIs.

Challenges and Final Decision

Although we were not violating any copyright laws, we began to receive threats of possible lawsuits. To avoid complications, we decided to end the project.

Reflection

This project was a valuable experience that taught us a lot about API integration and digital rights management, as well as underscoring the importance of legal compliance in content platform development.
