Founder, Product & UX/UI Designer
A Chrome extension for frequent YouTube viewers who want more control over the desktop experience. The default interface pushes Shorts and recommendations and offers few playback controls, so Pablo designed and built an extension that filters these distractions and adds playback tools, quick controls and a detailed settings panel with interactive previews. He took the product from idea to a public launch on the Chrome Web Store, using AI-assisted coding to build it on his own.
