THE PLAYGROUND

Made out of curiosity.

Some useful. Some experimental. Some just for fun. A growing collection of things I've built, tried and learned along the way.

APPLICATIONSWindows utility

PC TuneUp

A free, locally running tool to help diagnose and fix problems that slow down a Windows PC.

How it started

A couple of years ago, as we started experimenting more seriously with building AI agents, I kept running into a very practical limitation: my laptop was struggling to keep up.

My earlier laptop was already constrained in terms of capacity, and I had been using a paid AVG TuneUp subscription to help keep it running smoothly. When the subscription expired, I wondered why I couldn't build something similar myself.

That's how PC TuneUp began.

PC TuneUp checks for 29 potential performance and system-health issues on Windows 10 and 11, explains what might be slowing down the computer, and provides fixes or practical guidance.

Storage cleanup

Temporary files, browser caches and duplicate files.

CPU & fan

Heavy processes, fan noise and temperature warnings.

Memory

High RAM usage, memory-hungry apps and possible leaks.

Startup & system

Startup programs, background services and power settings.

The app also includes a health score, prioritized recommendations, network checks and one-click fixes where supported. It runs locally without a cloud service or subscription. Some fixes require administrator access.

More things are always in the making.
Some might work. Some might not. That's part of the fun.
