White papers

How we build it.

A technical white paper for each app we build with AI: what it does, how it is put together, what keeps it safe and how we checked it. Written from the system as built.

  1. Comment Assistant

    Comment Assistant: a human-approved reply system

    How Okavyx built an AI-assisted way to answer a YouTube channel's comments, with a person approving every word before it is sent. Architecture, safety model, interface, verification and where it goes next.

  2. Estate operations

    Running an estate with AI: one conversation, many threads, proof before trust

    A design for running a mixed estate of small production services through AI sessions, driven from a phone, and the controls that keep that safe: routing, approvals, probes that must fail first, and a configuration that cannot drift.

  3. Vigil

    Vigil: monitoring that knows what is actually running

    A supply-chain-aware monitoring system for a small estate: signed results from testers, one alert lifecycle, a durable outbox, and exposure judged on the software that is really deployed.

  4. Trace Lab

    Trace Lab: measuring browser fingerprinting, and only claiming what survives repetition

    An instrumented, caged browser that shows which fingerprinting techniques a web page uses, which script used them, who received the data, and whether it happened before the visitor agreed to anything.

  5. Digital Audit

    Digital Audit: forensic SEO and advertising reports from evidence alone

    How twelve evidence-gathering phases and a single, tightly boxed model call turn a business name into a PIN-protected report an owner can forward to their web vendor.

  6. Images

    Images: a private, searchable library for AI-made pictures

    How a pile of untagged AI images became a categorised, searchable library, screened for logos and recognisable people, that people browse and other applications query instead of generating new pictures.

  7. Timesheets

    Timesheets: a paper time book, rebuilt inside Microsoft 365

    A timesheet system that runs inside Microsoft Teams on existing Microsoft 365 licences, with Azure Functions, SharePoint and Entra ID doing the work, and no premium add-ons. How it is built, how it is secured and how it is deployed into a tenant we do not own.

  8. Relay

    Relay: moving a password, a snippet or a screenshot between two devices, safely and briefly

    A short-lived, PIN-joined channel where one side signs in and the other side never needs to. Text, passwords and files cross, then everything is gone.

  9. Labs platform

    Okavyx Labs: one front door, one edge, one deploy for a dozen apps

    How a dozen web applications share one Linux server with passkey-only sign-in, a single reverse proxy, a locked-down database, and security written down as rules a machine can check.

  10. ephShare

    ephShare: a file share with no database, and a copy anyone can run on cheap hosting

    A small, single-user tool for putting a page, an image or a document on the web and sending someone the link. It started on a Raspberry Pi, grew up on a container host, and now ships as a zip for ordinary shared hosting.

  11. BiasFeed · Retired · read-only archive

    BiasFeed: an unattended AI newsroom built from off-the-shelf parts

    How a pipeline built with AI assistants turns a news story into three framings, a picture and a published page. Retired on 11 September 2026 and kept here, read-only, as a record of what was built.

Our work is always evolving, and so are the AI vendors and their products. Nothing described here is set in concrete. Each paper describes its system as it stood in October 2026, when it was written; the date shown is when the app was first built.
