Print production automation — building tools that remove repetitive work from prepress and studio workflows.
order sheet → project folders → registration marks → cutter — if it happens every day, it deserves a script.

- macOS workflow automation — AppleScript dispatched via Shortcuts.app for project setup, file management, and login routines
- Bridging the gap between creative applications and production requirements with lightweight, focused scripts
