I’m Suphian. I work in product and I like to turn ideas into things people can try, use, and enjoy. I care about how they work, how they look, and what happens when they meet the real world. I also founded Abacus Labs, and suph.app is where I play with new ideas.

Small things I build to explore. When a new model or tool comes out, I like to spend a weekend with it and use it to solve a real problem. I don’t plan to support them; they’re experiments I think are worth sharing.
I built it for Billy: a website in his voice where customers see their price and book a time in about a minute. Behind it are a booking engine, a service area mapped by real drive times, a calendar feed for his phone, and crayon art drawn with Codex and ChatGPT and animated with Higgsfield.
A chess game where every piece is a character with its own attack and death, drawn as pixel art. Claude builds the game and Codex the animation; it’s a work in progress.
A 3D board game you play in the browser: 2–4 players, with solo practice, same-screen play and online invitations, set in a medieval coastal kingdom or the Roman empire.
