Become a sponsor to Jay S
Hi, I'm Jay (deadrat-in).
I build and maintain open-source software, mostly around AI, automation, privacy, developer tooling and the open web.
Some of the projects I've built include:
-
AI Chat Exporter, a browser extension for exporting conversations from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and other AI platforms into portable formats.
-
Decant, a privacy-first browser extension that turns web pages into clean Markdown locally, with exports suited to Obsidian, Logseq and Notion.
-
ResumeOps Engine, an AI-powered system for generating structured, tailored resumes from validated source data.
-
Gatepass LLM Proxy, a lightweight proxy for managing and auditing LLM API traffic.
-
Google Photos → Wikimedia Commons Bridge, a privacy-focused tool for transferring and curating photos using official APIs.
-
Other smaller experiments and utilities around Linux, open source, AI and automation.
I prefer building software that is useful, transparent and reasonably self-hostable rather than chasing unnecessary complexity.
Why sponsor me?
Most of these projects are independent and free to use. Sponsorship helps give me more time and resources to:
- maintain existing projects
- fix bugs and respond to changes in external platforms
- build useful features
- run servers and testing infrastructure
- continue releasing software as open source
If you find one of my projects useful, sponsoring my work is a simple way to help keep it maintained and available to everyone.
Thanks for supporting independent free & open-source development.
