Magnify is the day job. These are the things that leave the gate in between — small products, built fast, with the notes written down afterwards. Each one is live and taking real money, real readers or real users right now.

ANT 01
Free
Ante
A macOS terminal that keeps track of your AI coding agents. Every Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Pi session sits on one board, sorted into working, waiting for you and idle, with a history you can resume in a click. Free, open source, macOS 14 or later.

SHP 02
$10
Ship It in a Day
A manual for going from an empty folder to a live site taking real card payments inside one working day. Twelve stages in the order you do them, the money path in the detail it actually needs, and eighteen traps that each caught somebody for real.

PKB 03
From $1
parkbid.lol
A paid directory drawn as a car park: the Million Dollar Homepage, with towing. Park a vehicle in a bay for a dollar, link it to your product, and hold the spot until somebody pays more — then you are towed to the back rather than deleted. A hundred bays, no accounts, no algorithm.

Your Startup Story
Paste your rough notes — a pitch, a thread, a late-night ramble — and walk away with a magazine-grade feature on a permanent page that is yours to share. Then read the founders building alongside you.
Why these four
-
They are all finished
Each one is live, has a price or a purpose, and takes real card payments, real submissions or real installs. Nothing here is a prototype waiting for a weekend.
-
Two of them are the same story
parkbid.lol was built in a single day. Ship It in a Day is the manual written from doing it — every trap in it is one that actually went wrong, not a hypothetical.
-
The code was never the hard part
Ask an assistant for a payment page and you get a working one in minutes. What breaks is the refund a month later, the webhook nobody subscribed to, the two buyers in the same second. That gap is what the manual is about.
None of this is Magnify. It is what happens on the side of a desk when the interesting problem is small enough to finish, and the point is finishing.
