We run a SaaS off a Raspberry Pi. Here's how that's going.

Bloodweb is built and hosted on home hardware sitting in a house in Australia — the web server, the database, the nightly backups, the TLS certs, all of it. This list is the running account of that: what shipped, what broke at 3am, and what it actually costs to run.

No spam, and we never share your address. Privacy.

What you'll actually get

Post-mortems on real breakage, with the logs and the fix

New tools and features as they ship — all free to use without an account
The numbers: traffic, signups, revenue, and the things that aren't working

What you won't get

A weekly send for the sake of a weekly send
Your address shared, sold, or handed to an ad network
Any difficulty leaving — every email has a one-click unsubscribe

In the meantime

Everything on the site is free and needs no account: the tools (PDF merge/split, image compression, converters — all running in your browser, nothing uploaded), forms from a template, and WebLink for a link-in-bio page. The blog has the longer write-ups.
