What I'm Building
We UC
A unified communications platform built for small and medium businesses. Calls, video, messaging, and collaboration - all in one place. Designed as a modern alternative to legacy PBX systems and enterprise platforms like Teams.
We are a team of 20 engineers building this from the ground up. No outside investment. Just a product shaped by 15 years of running a telecoms company and understanding what businesses actually need.
