03 · Outcomes
Case studies
The problem, what I built, and what improved — including estimated time saved where exact metrics were not tracked.
UpaHub
Challenge
A property manager was tracking units, leases, and rent in Excel — easy to miss due dates, collections, and tenant follow-ups.
Solution
Built a rental management platform with automated billing, a tenant portal, PayMongo payments, and SMS reminders.
Result
Reduced manual tracking and follow-up time by an estimated 80%, with rent collection and tenant records in one workspace.
Barangay Information System (BIS)
Challenge
Barangay staff issued clearances and tracked blotter cases by hand, with records spread across paper and shared files.
Solution
Built a barangay information system with resident records, PDF certificates, QR verification, and role-based staff access.
Result
Document requests and resident lookup happen in one dashboard instead of hunting through paper files.
HRIS with Payroll
Challenge
HR teams were processing payroll and leave in spreadsheets, which slowed payouts and made errors easy to miss.
Solution
Built an HRIS with payroll, timekeeping, leave, loans, and employee self-service, deployed on Laravel Cloud.
Result
Payroll cycles and leave requests run through one system, cutting manual encoding and follow-ups.
04 · Social proof
What clients say
“Rent collection and tenant follow-ups used to eat our week. The platform automated reminders and put billing in one dashboard.”
“Emil delivered on time and exceeded expectations. We went from spreadsheets to a live system our staff actually use every day.”
“Payroll and leave were always a scramble. Employees now self-serve, and HR reviews exceptions instead of retyping every row.”
