Products I’m building.

Independent products designed and engineered
from idea to production.

01

Financial clarity.
One statement away.

Turn credit card statements into financial intelligence. EkstreApp transforms PDF statements into structured insights — so transactions, installments and monthly spending finally make sense.

In the current early-stage product

PDF statement processing, transaction extraction, spending categorization, monthly analysis, installment tracking, future payment projections, recurring-payment detection and payment-date reminders.

Privacy & intelligence

Confirmed records are stored locally. On-device processing keeps analysis on the device; optional AI analysis sends extracted statement text to an analysis service. Multi-month spending analysis and AI-assisted insights remain an evolving part of the product.

The foundation

Photo import, on-device background separation with Apple Vision, manual clothing attributes, a searchable digital wardrobe, local storage and outfit creation form the current foundation.

AI & product direction

Clothing detection and classification, color and brand recognition, attribute extraction, a clothing calendar, AI-powered wardrobe analysis and optional cloud synchronization are development areas. These are not presented as generally available features.

A WARDROBE THAT WORKS TOGETHER

More possibilities.
Already in your wardrobe.

Bring individual pieces into one place, then combine them into outfits. A thoughtful foundation for everyday wardrobe planning.

About the name & public launch

Gardrop is the working name of this product. Naming and brand agreements are still in progress, so there is no public product website yet. I’m continuing to build the product while that process is underway.

THE WAY I BUILD

I like building products where
complex technology becomes
invisible to the user.

Product thinking, software engineering and increasingly AI — turning technically complex systems into simple consumer experiences.

01

Product first.

Technology should solve a real user problem rather than exist for its own sake.

02

Engineering matters.

Good products need reliable architecture, maintainable systems and thoughtful technical decisions.

03

AI with purpose.

AI should improve the product experience where it provides genuine value.

02 / PROFESSIONAL FOUNDATION

Built on real
engineering.

Independent products.
Production experience behind them.

03 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Building software
since curiosity
became a career.

Mehmet Ali ÖndeIstanbul, Türkiye

I’m Mehmet, a software engineer and founder based in Istanbul.

I build software products through my company, malionde inc. This website brings together my engineering work and the products I’m building.

I studied Computer Engineering and have spent my professional career building production software across financial systems, enterprise applications, web platforms and mobile products.

Alongside that work, I build independent products from the ground up — from product strategy and UX decisions to architecture, development, integrations and production.

My current focus is intelligent consumer applications, where AI, computer vision and software engineering work together to solve practical problems. EkstreApp and Gardrop are that thinking in practice.

CURRENTLY BUILDING
EkstreApp×Gardrop

EkstreApp × Gardrop

Two very different products. One idea.

Turn complex information into
simple, useful experiences.

Financial intelligence.
Making sense of everyday spending.

Wardrobe intelligence.
Seeing more possibilities in what you own.

Software and AI, quietly removing complexity from everyday life.
LET’S CONNECT

Let’s build something
meaningful.

I’m interested in product development, AI partnerships,
startup ecosystems and ambitious software projects.
