Why We're Building Apps for the Internet

There's a simple reason we do this: we want to give more than we take.

Before One Scales, I ran a web development company with up to 38 people. We built websites, we sold hours — we were more like a factory. One Scales is a different bet. Use code and content to reach a lot of people, reduce waste, build things once that keep working.

Finding What's Missing

We look for gaps. Underserved niches, tools that don't exist yet, problems people are quietly frustrated by. When we find one, we build something and create content around it to help people save time and do something useful.

What We're Building Right Now

AI SEO / llms.txt — We believe AI discoverability is the next generation of SEO. Just like websites had to learn to speak Google's language, they'll need to speak AI's. The llms.txt standard is part of that shift. Our flagship project is Hi LLMs — a suite of tools that help websites connect with AI systems, including an embeddable AI Summary Widget, free Chrome extensions, and more in the pipeline.

Apify Apps — We publish automation and scraping tools on the Apify marketplace. 21 apps live, 3,800+ users and growing. A few examples:

LLMS.txt Generator — Make websites discoverable to AI assistants
Bulk Image Downloader — Download thousands of images at scale
Sitemap URL Extractor — Extract all URLs from any sitemap
Bulk AI Markdown Maker — Convert pages to clean markdown with AI
Website Screenshot Pro — Capture high-quality screenshots at scale
Simple SEO Data Extractor — Pull SEO metadata from websites

We Share Everything We Learn

On our YouTube channel we publish tutorials and walkthroughs. One video on improving .mbox files from Google Takeout/Gmail has helped over 100,000 people.

We also write articles on onescales.com — anything we can share that either doesn't exist online or we think we can explain better. It's not always tech. We timestamped all the scary parts of Moana so parents of toddlers know exactly what to skip. Simple, useful, real.

And we open-source tools on GitHub — a Google Sheet API wrapper, a Calendar ICS exporter, an IPFS bulk uploader, and more. If we build something useful, we share it.

Honest About Where We Are

One Scales isn't a full-time income yet. It's a side mission we believe in, built step by step, with the goal of becoming something sustainable. We're learning, adjusting, and continuing.

If any of this resonates, we'd love to connect.
