Rigid is a suite of web-based applications I developed, each offering a unique approach to Customer Relationship Management (CRM). The name was carefully chosen to reflect my philosophy of software design. My goal is to provide individuals with tools that enable them to manage their business operations in an efficient, straightforward, and structured manner.

As an engineer, I came to realize that entrepreneurship is becoming the modern equivalent of the traditional 9-5 job. Today, it's not just about launching my own businesses; it's also about the growing number of people— from content creators to solo entrepreneurs and small teams— who are embracing self-employment. The Rigid Project is for the changing economy and work culture that we see today.

Rigid CRM is a user-friendly, web-based application designed to simplify Customer Relationship Management. It offers a straightforward interface that helps you see results quickly. For example, if we predict that you’ll acquire a new paying client in 12 weeks, the app will give you that exact insight. It also offers AI suggestions to keep you on track with hitting your goals.

When I started my first official software development role at a real company, I became curious and began asking questions. I quickly learned a great deal about how a business operates, the various types of employees and departments, and absorbed everything my coworkers shared with me.

One of the key takeaways that remained with me was the type of software we maintained: an internal CRM for the company's account managers. After listening to the pain points of our account managers, I knew that I had to build my own. Solving people's problems should always be at the root of any business.

Rigid Bio (rgd.bio) is the flagship app of The Rigid Project. Created with the belief that content creators are the most influential people today, the app capitalizes on the vast and engaged audience in this space. Its core function is to be placed in the bio of a creator’s Instagram, TikTok, or other platforms, enabling them to sell their brand’s products and manage monetized communities.

Many older individuals (Boomers) have yet to fully embrace the world of streamers and online content creators. However, significant investments are being made in advertising on platforms like Twitch, YouTube, and TikTok, driven by the rising influence of modern internet celebrities. This application is designed to serve those who are building large online audiences and communities and want to turn it into a business.
