Custom builds for repetitive work
The Automation Shelf designs mobile apps and builds Excel & Office automation that takes manual work off your plate — a report that used to take an afternoon becomes a macro, a workflow spread across three spreadsheets becomes one button.
What's on the shelf
Pick one, or bring a workflow that needs both.
Custom iOS and Android apps for a business process that's currently stuck in a notebook, a group chat, or someone's head — built to be used daily, not just demoed once.
Good fit if: your team relies on a manual process, spreadsheet, or paper form that needs to live on a phone instead.
VBA macros, Office Scripts, and Power Query pipelines that turn recurring reports, reconciliations, and data cleanup into something that runs on its own.
Good fit if: the same spreadsheet steps happen every week and nobody enjoys doing them.
How a project runs
We walk through exactly what you do today — the spreadsheet, the app, the copy-paste — and agree on what "done" looks like.
Development happens against your actual files or use cases, not a generic demo, so edge cases surface before launch.
You get the finished app or workbook plus a plain-language walkthrough of how it works and how to change it later.
Workflows change. Fixes and small adjustments after delivery are part of the deal, not a separate negotiation.
Who's building this
I'm the person behind The Automation Shelf. I build custom mobile apps and Excel/Office-based automation for small businesses and teams who are tired of repeating the same manual steps every week.
Every project comes straight to me — no account managers, no hand-offs. If you can describe the workflow, I can usually tell you within a short conversation whether it's a good candidate to automate.
