I build apps, websites, and native programs for people and businesses — pairing real software engineering with AI to ship faster, cleaner, and smarter.
A one-person studio run by Mason Lapine — a software engineer based in Stamford, Connecticut, building production software for clients while leveraging AI and automation at every step.
From a quick marketing site to a backend that runs your business, Stone Rabbit delivers real, maintainable software — not throwaway prototypes.
Full-stack apps with a modern React frontend and a solid Python or Node backend — dashboards, portals, and tools your team actually uses.
Fast, responsive, professional websites that represent your brand and convert visitors — designed, built, and deployed end to end.
Desktop and mobile applications — Swift for Apple platforms, cross-platform builds, and native tooling that runs close to the metal.
Prompt engineering, AI integrations, and backend automations that cut manual work — the same approach I've used to automate 60% of a client's workflow.
AI writes a lot of code these days — the difference is knowing what good looks like. Every line is reviewed, tested, and integrated by an actual engineer.
We start with your problem, not a tech stack. I translate what you need into a clear, scoped plan.
I leverage AI to move fast — scaffolding, drafting, and iterating — while I steer architecture and quality.
Secure, tested code integrated into your toolset. Built to be maintained, not just to demo.
Deployed, documented, and handed off — with support to keep it running and growing.
Years of shipping real software across security, education, and enterprise.
Delivering digital education across Salesforce, Coursera, and online.yale.edu. Redesigned a Poorvu Center website in-house (saving ~$20,000), cut roughly 4 weeks of consulting time on Coursera course redesigns with custom-built tools, and built a compliance-check tool that automates the process and saves ~$20,000 annually.
Built and managed automations and backend core services in Python 3, AWS, and Docker, and modified frontend applications in React and JavaScript. Leveraged AI and prompt engineering to develop faster and more precisely — increasing automations by 60% (saving ~3.5 FTE hours/day) and cutting the highest-value task's effort by 60%.
Developed a web application to manage client profile data — a React frontend and Python backend — learning to develop, test, and integrate secure code into a production toolset.
Managed and developed RIT web applications on both frontend and backend — adding features and fixing bugs on sites like eServices and TigerCenter.
Built a web portal to track company technical data — a PHP/jQuery/MySQL frontend backed by a Windows PowerShell script querying Active Directory.
Specialized in web application development and database modeling. Served as a TA for the intro to databases course, tutoring and grading students through MySQL.
