Design backward. Experiment forward.

experiments.plus begins with a vision of what better productivity could look like. From that imagined state, each experiment is designed backward — testing, refining, and learning along the way.

Before implementation, we pause to ask questions like:

  • “What if we could work only half as long each day?”
  • “What if this scaled effortlessly across a team?”
  • “What if productivity could be ten times better?”

These questions are not promises, but lenses — ways to think beyond the obvious and to uncover quiet, meaningful progress through deliberate experimentation.

Experiments

Not every experiment is open-sourced or testable, but the highlights below share what you can explore today.

#002

Ginger Brown

Ginger Brown targets a common connectivity issue on captive Wi-Fi portals. Because HTTPS requests sometimes skip the redirect to the login page, this utility deliberately serves static assets over plain HTTP to coax the network into presenting its sign-in screen. The page stays intentionally minimal so the browser triggers the redirect as soon as possible.

#028

Perforations

Capture frames of from a movie files. Extracts EXIF/QuickTime metadata, captures frames with accurate timestamps, and exports video segments while preserving camera information.

#047

Mansaku

Mansaku is a powerful document processing system that collects, processes, and manages web resources and documents. It supports various document types including HTML, PDF, XLSX, and CSV files, with features for tracking changes, generating summaries, and managing document versions.

#050

Sharinbai

Sharinbai is a tool for generating industry-specific folder structures and placeholder files using AI. It utilizes LLM models to create a hierarchical directory structure tailored to specific industries and roles. The tool supports both local models via Ollama and cloud-based models via the OpenAI API.

#057

Kusaichigo

This experiment aims to create a world setting for a fantasy novel and verify that the setting contains no logical contradictions. It identifies potential logical inconsistencies that may arise when introducing various fantasy elements—such as magic, long-lived races, and unique ecosystems—to build a consistent worldview.

#058

Kamatsuka

Kamatsuka is a Rust-based tool for working with Dropbox's Stone DSL (API definition language). It provides conversion between Stone DSL and OpenAPI specifications, verification capabilities, and modeling of Dropbox API in Alloy to analyze API use case feasibility.

#062

Shuro

An automated workflow for adding translated subtitles to movie files using whisper-cpp, ollama, and ffmpeg.

#065

watermint toolbox

The watermint toolbox is the multi-purpose utility command-line tool for web services including Dropbox, Figma, GitHub, etc. The purpose of the tool is to provide users of cloud services and system administrators with a way to automate workflows and provide a work-around for some issues.
