The world changes by the hour.
High time to make something of it.

DISRUPTIONS

So many possibilities.So much change.So many questions.

Great — let's get started.

For over 15 years I've built innovative, highly bespoke solutions with the most modern technologies of their time. Since 2018 with machine learning and AI. Enough experience by now to work out how business challenges get solved with fresh ideas and modern technology. Useful, efficient, agile — without hype and bullshit.

Services

Where shall we begin?

Sprint

What’s next? – Innovation Sprint

In this agile format we overlay current challenges with emerging opportunities. We identify which problem is actually worth solving and which means are available short- and long-term. The result isn't PowerPoint slides, but concrete prototypes you can use to test your assumptions immediately.

Training

AI & Agents with Use Cases

In this training I teach teams with widely varying knowledge levels practical AI skills — from legally required AI literacy through the basics to the latest agentic solutions. They take away more than knowledge: together we build solutions for real everyday tasks. With real value from day one.

Development

Individual Apps & Agents

I solve your individual business tasks with purpose-built agents, apps, automations and APIs. Once integrated with AI agents, your existing systems (databases, ERPs, legacy) can deliver entirely new insights and become the foundation for new products and processes.

Hardware

Physical Prototypes

With a broad tech stack I build hardware you can't buy anywhere yet: sensors and actuators that make processes or systems smarter, wearables and one-off pieces for presentations, trade shows or events. And now also with a direct link to your AI agents.

PROCESS

From task to MVP

Understanding & Idea

Want the solution and concept from me? Or an innovation sprint where every stakeholder brings knowledge and ideas? Either way: successful projects start with a deep understanding of the task and a clear idea of what to build.

Architecture

Thanks to technology-openness from hardware to web to AI, I find efficient, flexible solutions. Souvereign, modern, and if you like, fitted into your existing IT architecture.

Build – Measure – Learn

I work in defined, short sprints with a clear learning goal. After each sprint we review the result together, so we spot wrong assumptions fast and correct them immediately.

Knowledge & Communication

From AI to prototypes – solutions only help if they're used. That's why I support training and communication to anchor innovation in your company culture.

About me

I don't just talk about innovative technology. I build it.

For 15 years I've turned ideas into hardware and code — with everything that comes with being a technologist in a non-technical environment.

Prototypes, not slides

An idea doesn't unfold its power in PowerPoint. Only when you can feel it and try it does it show its potential. It becomes more convincing and more exciting — for you as much as for stakeholders and decision-makers.

Fearless and technology-open

I could never choose the challenges — but I could choose the paths to solve them. So projects emerged from computer vision to VR, gaming, data storytelling, soft robotics, to machine learning and AI. With this stack I always offer you the most efficient path.

Escape the lab!

When innovation meets an audience it becomes news. Whatever you move inside your company has news value: for internal communication, as employer branding, for your position in the market.
