I used to track everything in a spreadsheet. Once I had multiple brokerage accounts and bank accounts it turned into manual copy-paste every week. So I built Wealth: an iOS app that pulls accounts through Plaid, snapshots net worth history to Supabase, and a web dashboard at wealth.isaacnam.com that charts it. The weird part: the hardest bug wasn't the charts, it was a Postgres permissions issue where the table had the right security policy but was never granted to the authenticated role. AI helped me find that in one session.

I keep building things and never posting about them. So the next build IS the posting system: a private dashboard that captures build notes, turns them into platform drafts in my own voice, and puts them on a calendar. Nothing publishes automatically — every draft passes through review. This note was captured inside the tool it describes.
