New phone, who dis?

Hi.

I'm Aaron Batilo.

I build software products that I think are fun and interesting under the name Mentally Animated. You can read more about me as a person on my own personal website.

Things I've built as Mentally Animated

Public page metrics for this website itself.

• SudokuRace - Public page metrics - $20 in donations - SudokuRace is a real-time multiplayer sudoku board. Create a room, invite your friends, and race to see how quickly you can fill in the board. The person who fills in the most grid spots wins! Launched in May of 2022.
• RepoGraph - $5.98 total revenue - RepoGraph is a CLI tool that generates a relationship graph from your GitHub pull request interactions. Visualize who has the most influence in a repo. Launched in May of 2022.
• CatStories.ai - Public page metrics - $2.83 MRR - Get a daily cat story, written by an AI. Every day is a brand new story. Launched in April of 2022.

Things I've done as a contractor or consultant

• Provide entire reference implementation for a cache filling architecture leveraging the mailgun/groupcache for an extreme low latency need that wanted to avoid an external cache.
• Provide entire reference implementation for an API product for a company to challenge a competitors latest product announcement. I was told by my client that my reference moved up their timelines to launch by 2 quarters.
• Upgraded several AWS Kubernetes clusters in production with zero downtime.
• Helped early stage startup get their static assets build pipeline ready for a Outlook plugin.
