Apps for people with better things to do than fight their tools.
I'm Ari Friedman, an independent app maker. I spent years running operations, not writing code. Now I build the tools I always wanted. Two are on the way.
Reframe
Comics, read the way they were drawn.
A comic reader for iPhone that guides you through your own comics panel by panel, with every word readable and the original art untouched.
Co-op Mode
Every idea has a place.
One calm place to run several AI coding helpers side by side. It keeps every project organized and tells you which helper fits the job, so you finish more and spend less.

Say hello
I read every message.
