Own software. Own server. No US cloud.

I bring AI into mid-market companies — tailored to your needs, on your server, not at OpenAI. Alongside that I build websites, apps and rebuild legacy software. AI lets me move faster than classic agencies; the code is yours at the end.

02.5 / Data sovereignty

Data sovereignty is an architectural decision.

Why I work solo and run this the way I do — instead of opening yet another agency.

01 Today

Apps collect what they can get

Geo data, contact networks, payment behaviour, photo content, calendars, even sleep data. Most users don’t know the full scope — and have no tool to reduce it.

02 Tomorrow

AI models decide about us

Insurance rates, credit scores, job pre-screening — increasingly automated on the basis of exactly this app data. Whoever shares today hands over decision power tomorrow.

03 Answer

Own architecture instead of US cloud

We cannot change the system from outside. But we can decide to feed it less — through own photo servers, own drives, own messengers, local AI. Modern, comfortable, EU-hosted.

What I built for myself, I build for you too. Cloud-exit is not about going without — it is about building differently.
