Scott Worsnop · Founder · Developer · Musician
Products, platforms, automation and applied AI — designed, built and taken all the way through.
I’m a founder and full-stack developer based in Spain. I’ve built and sold technology businesses, and I’m now focused on creating ambitious software products, working with interesting companies and solving difficult problems across borders.
Music, travel and a slightly unreasonable number of projects are usually somewhere in the mix.
Spain based. International by default.
Born in Harrogate in the UK, I moved to Spain when I was 11. Travelling has become a big part of who I am: new places, different people, and increasingly life in a camper with the freedom to work from almost anywhere.
That fits the way I like to collaborate. I’m interested in companies in different countries, getting to know the people behind them, visiting teams in person and understanding how a business actually works, rather than only seeing it through a screen.
Long before most of the technology, there was music. I’ve played fingerstyle guitar and piano for most of my life. Fingerstyle probably sums up my personality: instead of one part, I prefer trying to play the bass, chords, melody and percussion at the same time. Why make things easy?
I love taking a piece of music apart, understanding how it fits together, then rebuilding it in my own way. That habit crosses over into almost everything else I do.
I’ve spent years building software, automation systems, web platforms, AI tools and businesses. Founded and sold technology companies, worked with large-scale automation and data, and today work heavily with PHP/Laravel, Python, JavaScript, SQL, AI and automation.
The technology itself interests me, but solving the actual problem interests me more. Complicated thing in, cleaner system out, with as much of the boring work automated as possible.
I’ve never been particularly good at staying inside one box. Music leads to technology. Technology leads to business ideas. Travelling leads to new perspectives. One project inevitably creates three more.
Whether I’m looking at a company, a piece of software or a piece of music, the instinct is the same: how does this work, and could it be better?
Each project starts with a different problem, so each one gets a different visual language.
Operational SaaS · client + admin · modular
Client and admin areas with roles and permissions. Bolt-on modules: CMS, CRM, LMS, bookings, POS, inventory, invoicing and light accounting — plus support, workflows, communications and marketing attribution in one multi-tenant platform.
Wuxxy · deeper look
Wuxxy started with a simple idea: businesses should not need ten platforms, five logins and a pile of disconnected integrations just to run day-to-day operations. It has grown a long way beyond that. Today I think of it less as a website platform and more as a modular operating system for a business. The website still matters, but it is only one surface of a larger system.
Most website builders stop at the website. You publish pages, capture a form, then hand the visitor to another system. Wuxxy connects the website, admin area, customer portal, CRM and operational tools to the same underlying platform. A lead from the site can enter the CRM immediately. A form can trigger a workflow. A customer can get portal access. Staff can create tasks or tickets. Content is managed centrally and shown across the system. Rather than wiring a website to the business afterwards, the website is already part of the business system.
A large part of Wuxxy is the website-building side: pages, navigation, media, forms, multilingual content, SEO, branding and reusable sections. The aim is high-quality sites that stay connected to the operational platform behind them, including AI-assisted creation and replication so an existing design can be a starting point instead of forcing every company into the same templates. Once the site exists, it does not sit on an island.
Not every company needs the same software. Forcing every business into one enormous interface creates the bloat Wuxxy is meant to replace. The architecture is built around bolt-on modules: start with the core platform, then add what that organisation actually needs.
Because the modules belong to the same platform, they can talk to each other without recreating the business across multiple applications.
The interesting part is not software that does everything for everybody. It is a strong common operating layer that can be shaped around the company using it. Users, permissions, customers, communications, workflows, files, content, integrations and automation are common to thousands of businesses. What changes is the module mix and how it is configured. That puts Wuxxy somewhere between a SaaS product, a website platform and a custom business system.
Rather than bolting on a chatbot so the product can claim AI, the opportunity is using it across the operating layer: organising leads, generating and restructuring website content, finding patterns in customer activity, assisting staff, summarising conversations, building workflows, analysing the business and automating repetitive admin. Eventually the question is less “what feature does the software have?” and more “what does the business want to happen?” The system can then help work out how to make it happen.
There are excellent CRMs, website builders, ticketing platforms, marketing systems and accounting tools. Companies often end up running all of them at once. Wuxxy approaches the problem from the opposite direction: build the operating system first, connect the website directly to it, then let businesses bolt on what they need. One login. One customer record. One set of permissions. One platform that understands how the parts of the organisation relate.
Still a lot to build, but Wuxxy has already moved well beyond the original concept: a website, operational platform and modular business system built as one connected product.

Realtime creative technology
Audio-reactive WebGL visuals with camera movement detection, gesture interaction, custom 3D models, tunnels, live effects and a visual designer built for clubs, DJs and events.
Video practice · looping · music learning
A better way to learn from video. Mark a section, loop it, slow it down, zoom in, mirror for left-hand players, and save the useful five seconds inside a twenty-minute lesson. Started as TubeMarker. Built by a musician who was tired of rewinding guitar parts.
VidLooper · deeper look
VidLooper started years ago under a different name: TubeMarker.
The idea came from a very practical frustration.
I was learning guitar parts from YouTube and constantly doing the same thing: rewind, play, miss the bit, rewind again, slow it down, try again.
For difficult fingerstyle sections or fast riffs, it became ridiculous.
So I built something for myself.
The original idea was simple: take a YouTube video and make the useful parts easier to practise.
Instead of repeatedly dragging a timeline backwards and forwards, TubeMarker let you mark a section of a video and loop it automatically.
That quickly grew into much more.
You could slow a section down, repeat it continuously, gradually work the tempo back up, zoom into parts of the video and save those sections for later.
For guitar learning in particular, it made a huge difference.
If someone was demonstrating something right-handed, the video could even be mirrored to make it easier for a left-handed player to follow.
Eventually TubeMarker became VidLooper - a name that much better described what the project had become.
VidLooper is really about turning long-form video into smaller, useful pieces.
A user can create a loop around a difficult section and practise it repeatedly.
They can also create highlights, effectively trimming a longer video down to the important sections without having to create a new copy of the video.
Those sections can then be saved, organised and shared.
For musicians, that could mean:
But the same concept works for almost anything learned through video.
VidLooper is one of those projects where my music and programming worlds collided almost perfectly.
I didn't originally sit down and think: “I should build a video-learning platform.”
I just wanted a less annoying way to learn guitar.
And that is still the part of the project I like most.
The features exist because they solve real problems I have actually had while learning and practising music.
Loop the difficult part. Slow it down. Zoom in. Mirror it. Save it. Come back tomorrow and try again.
Simple.
There is still plenty I want to build around VidLooper.
Saved collections, profiles, favourites, better discovery, shared loops and curated learning sections can turn it into something much more useful than a simple video utility.
The bigger idea is to create a layer on top of existing video content that makes it better for learning.
YouTube already contains an extraordinary amount of educational material.
VidLooper doesn't need to replace that.
It just needs to make the useful five seconds inside a twenty-minute video much easier to find, practise and remember.
That was the idea behind TubeMarker years ago. It is still the idea behind VidLooper today. Just considerably less clunky.
Computer vision · auto scoring · streaming
Camera-based board detection, automatic scoring, and live streaming. Proof of concept works; the public product is still in build. Open to collaboration — I played top-level darts across Europe and have strong contacts in the sport.
In progress · Chrome extension
Captures listings as you browse, compares generations and market prices, and flags unusually good value. Early — useful already, still being built.
Designed, coded, ran and monetised early consumer-web video products myself — including a video search engine before YouTube was a thing.
That platform was acquired by Hand Held Entertainment, a NASDAQ-listed Silicon Valley company. In between and around it I built and sold more ventures — sites and web services such as heggle.com among them. The line between engineer, founder, product person and operator never really separated again.
I built legal torrent trackers to help get legitimate releases into search results — the distribution side of the same problem as copyright protection. That combination of surfacing legal copies and removing infringing ones became the foundation for what followed.
ProTek Media / xTakedowns is my current operation: ~100k SERPs scanned daily, tens of thousands of infringing links removed each day, evidence packages and DMCA workflows for 5,000+ brands. Top-10 all-time Google removals. Real throughput since 2014, and the place where most of my automation, data engineering and applied AI instincts were forged.
Domains have been another thread next to building products — acquiring strong names, holding them, and selling when the right buyer shows up. A few currently available: FAQknows.com, sportsforfree.com, xsavers.com, xloaders.com.
I’m focused on software where AI is part of the machinery, not a decorative chatbot, and on products that remove friction from actual work. Always interested in meeting ambitious people, working with interesting companies and seeing where the next project, collaboration or journey leads.
I’m comfortable moving up and down the stack, which is often more useful than being brilliant at only one layer.
Full-stack systems that connect user experience, business rules, databases, integrations and deployment.
From prototype through architecture, implementation, deployment and the uncomfortable details between them.
Untangle legacy workflows, automate repetitive operations, modernise infrastructure and remove expensive friction.
Find where models actually create leverage, then connect them to tools, data, permissions and real workflows.
Product direction, architecture, unusual integrations, visiting teams in person, Spain-facing coordination and difficult problem solving.
I’ve bought and sold some substantial domain names over the years. Currently available: FAQknows.com, sportsforfree.com, xsavers.com, xloaders.com — enquire by email.
Based in Spain · bilingual EN/ES · open to collaborating with ambitious people and interesting companies across borders. Meeting people at VDS.tech this week. Happy to talk.
