      <title>[Vahid Builds] Migrating from single-page concept to static Next.js 14 multi-page system</title>
      <link>https://vahidbuilds.com/building#log-05</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/building#log-05</guid>
      <description>Transitioned the entire portfolio into a modular App Router architecture. Created hardware-accelerated ScrollReveal observers using native IntersectionObserver, eliminated client-side layout shifts, and calibrated contrast variables for dark and light modes.</description>

      <title>[Runbook] Human-in-the-loop email dispatch for recurring agency invoices</title>
      <link>https://vahidbuilds.com/building#log-03</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/building#log-03</guid>
      <description>Completed the core automation engine for Runbook. Rather than sending automated emails without oversight, it drafts the reminder, calculates days overdue, and queues it for a single-click review on Sunday afternoons.</description>

      <title>[Voice → Tasks] Local Whisper testing vs. API latency evaluation</title>
      <link>https://vahidbuilds.com/building#log-02</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/building#log-02</guid>
      <description>Benchmarked local small Whisper models on Apple Silicon against hosted API endpoints. Concluded that for short 2-minute voice memos, the local pipeline saves network calls and provides instant offline transcription.</description>

      <title>[Case-Study System] Designing an honest case-study layout model: problem first, results last</title>

      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/building#log-01</guid>
      <description>Standard design portfolios show pretty screenshots with no context. Designed a strict editorial template requiring every project write-up to state the real problem, technical constraints, prototype iterations, and measured results.</description>

      <title>Case Study: Ledgerlight - Calm cash-flow forecasting &amp; runway modeling for boutique creative agencies.</title>
      <link>https://vahidbuilds.com/work/ledgerlight</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/work/ledgerlight</guid>
      <description>Most small studio founders run their businesses on gut feeling and complicated, error-prone Google Sheets. Ledgerlight was designed as an antidote to corporate accounting software: clear, opinionated, and focused on the single metric that matters—how many months of runway remain under different hiring and revenue scenarios.</description>

      <title>Case Study: Intake - AI-assisted brief condenser that turns messy conversations into actionable project scopes.</title>
      <link>https://vahidbuilds.com/work/intake</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/work/intake</guid>
      <description>Intake solves the hardest part of early client engagements: extracting clear technical requirements from open-ended conversations. It takes messy emails, voice memos, and meeting transcripts and synthesizes them into structured project briefs with explicit open questions, risks, and timeline estimates.</description>

      <title>Case Study: Fieldnote - Offline-first progressive web app for structural property assessments and field contractors.</title>
      <link>https://vahidbuilds.com/work/fieldnote</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/work/fieldnote</guid>
      <description>Fieldnote was built for property inspectors and civil engineers who conduct structural surveys in remote basements, attics, and construction sites where cellular connection is nonexistent. It allows inspectors to record observations, capture tagged photos, and compile official survey reports directly on site.</description>

      <title>Case Study: Kiln Studio - A calm, editorial direct-to-consumer digital flagship for an artisanal ceramics workshop.</title>
      <link>https://vahidbuilds.com/work/kiln-studio</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://vahidbuilds.com/work/kiln-studio</guid>
      <description>Kiln Studio creates handcrafted stoneware and porcelain tableware. They needed an online presence that mirrored the contemplative craft and tactility of their workshop, rejecting the noisy countdown timers and pop-up banners typical of modern e-commerce.</description>
