Ben Robertson

Hi, I'm Ben Robertson.

I'm an independent software developer and entrepreneur based in Travelers Rest, SC.

What I'm up to now

In 2023, I thought it would be fun to see if AI could make coloring pages for my kids. I built ColorBliss to see if it could.

And to my suprise, I've been working on it ever since. You can use ColorBliss to make coloring pages from text prompts, convert any photo or image to a coloring page, and more.

I do a little freelance product development work as well, but I'm not currently looking for new clients.

I work on the occasional side project as well, and occasionally write about what I'm working on. Check out my recent notes below.
