TAC: Remnant Run — Arena Collapse
A browser-based multiplayer arena game built for a game jam — real-time combat in a collapsing arena, powered by WebSockets and Three.js.
NFC proximity marketing SaaS — tap a sticker, get redirected, track every interaction with real-time analytics. Live on the App Store, in closed beta on Google Play, with tiered pricing and a full web platform.
TapInsight started as a simple idea: QR codes work, but they're clunky, visually noisy, and friction-heavy. I wanted something cleaner, faster, and more natural for real-world interactions.
TapInsight replaces QR codes with NFC-powered tap interactions. Instead of opening a camera and scanning a code, users simply tap their phone against an NFC tag and instantly access the content behind it — and every tap is tracked with real-time analytics.
What began as a concept is now a shipping product: a web platform, a native iOS app live on the App Store, an Android app in closed beta, and a hardware line of physical NFC tags.
As of June 2026, TapInsight is live and in active use:
At its core, TapInsight is a URL rerouting platform. Each NFC tag points to a TapInsight URL, and that URL can dynamically redirect users to any destination:
The key advantage: businesses can update where a tag points without replacing the physical tag itself. Tap once, change the destination forever.
TapInsight is more than a redirect — it's a full marketing and analytics suite:
| Platform | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| iOS | Live | App Store v1.1.2, Apple Small Business Program enrolled |
| Android | Closed beta | Google Play under Lippie Apps; production application pending |
| Web | Live | tapinsight.io — dashboard, analytics, billing |
| Hardware | Shipping | Circular NFC tags, ferrite-backed, branded |
| Plan | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Trying it out — a few tags, recent analytics |
| Pro | $34.99/mo | Solo operators and small businesses |
| Business | $92.99/mo | Teams with multiple members and longer analytics history |
Higher legacy/enterprise tiers exist for large deployments.
This project involved more than just the software concept. I also worked through:
| QR Code | TapInsight |
|---|---|
| Open camera | Tap phone |
| Scan code | Instant interaction |
| Visual clutter | Clean design |
| Static links | Dynamic routing |
| No analytics | Every tap tracked |
