Planned and built a B2B acquisition landing page
A Germany-wide rental chain was looking to expand to neighbouring European markets and, for this, needed a landing page as the central funnel for franchisee acquisition efforts through email, adverts, and others.
I built an AI-powered, AI-assisted landing page generator, which is fed with all the basic information required and important on such a landing page and which generates A/B testing versions with various features.
The beauty of the system is that various landing pages or various target markets can be generated in an instant. The number of hours required for building this system and solutions is far under what would have been necessary to build each landing page by hand.
Web Mechanic
Emergency service for web sites
With many decades of experience under my belt, both building web platforms as well as fixing them and administering them, I decided to start offering this specialist knowledge. It is a packaged on-demand service called Web Mechanic.
The service operates around the world and is available to website owners and operators who are in need of specialist troubleshooting, bug hunting, or emergency admin work, like solving problems with domain registrars or hosting providers, doing emergency backups or other tasks.
The website is WordPress powered with a very rapidly vibe coded theme.
Autónomotools is an upcoming web platform that I am developing based on Laravel 13 and Filament.
What is it?
The Spanish self-employment system is famously hard to navigate. Even locals routinely use professional help.
At the same time, that professional help can be of… varying quality. Some advisors have no interest in empowering their clients to understand the system and make their own decisions. Others simply don't have the time budgeted in to explain anything beyond the very basics. And some are simply incompetent.
As a result, most freelancers — autónomos — feel overwhelmed. They have no real insight into their basic financial vitals and feel at the mercy of whoever's professional help they are using.
Autonomotools exists to empower those professionals — to understand the system a little better and to make calculations that are vital for plotting their course.
The hourly rate calculator helps find a healthy rate that actually pays the rent long term. The viability calculator gives you an honest idea of how viable your self-employment is in the first place.
Social Media Storytelling for Wheaty
For Wheaty, a leading German organic brand of meat alternatives, I developed several storytelling strategies to make their social media feed more interesting and engaging.
Behind the Scenes: Clean Ingredients
The behind-the-scenes approach focuses on the product's clean aspects, exploring individual ingredients and where they are sourced.
For this purpose we contacted the providers of Wheaty's organic ingredients to collect information about the farms and farming projects where those high-quality ingredients are grown.
Micro Videos & Influencer Content
On the video front we started using micro videos in online advertising, highlighting the easy preparation of Wheaty products as well as showcasing recipes by vegan food influencers, spotlighting sports events, and more.
Good Energy: 35 Years of Passion
The Good Energy social media storytelling approach focuses on the genuine passion that this brand was built with over 35 years — communicating the authentic values and dedication behind every product.

Germany-wide Vehicle Rental Platform
I designed, built, and deployed an online rental platform for a Germany-wide vehicle rental chain. The platform includes:
- A public-facing front end for browsing and booking
- A customer login area for managing bookings
- A franchisee portal for station-level operations
- An administrator area for full platform management
Full Rental Lifecycle via QR Code
Bookings and fleet management work in real time. The entire rental lifecycle — pick-up, incident reporting, and return — is handled from within the app. Real-world actions like vehicle pick-up and return are triggered via QR codes, making the process fast and paperless.
The platform is built on Laravel 12 and the rapid application development framework Filament, which made it possible to build a complex multi-portal app with exceptional speed and reliability.
AI-Accelerated Development with Conductor
Laravel's strict conventions for the location and structure of data and business logic make it exceptionally well-suited for AI-assisted development — the predictable organization lets coding agents work accurately and confidently.
Using Conductor, a multi-agent tool for macOS, I worked on several major features simultaneously in separate git worktrees — with fine-grained control and review of every line of generated code. Combined with Claude Code and ChatGPT Codex, I estimate the total programming time was reduced by 50–75%.

Booking portal form CRO redesign
I updated a rental chain's online booking form which, already a decade old, was showing a large number of form fields one after another.
I broke the form up into a multi-page wizard, which, with its large UI components and clear layout, makes it easier to follow the booking process. Also, the overall process feels much faster, dissuading users from bailing out in the middle of the process.
The results were fantastic — conversions (the number of form submissions after opening) rose by 33% and have stayed at that level ever since.

Voice-driven editing workflow
Created a Claude Web + GitHub workflow that allows editing this web site using voice on a phone.
How It Works
The very website you are browsing right now can be edited using regular spoken text — that is the only requirement. The sole technical dependency is the AI model: Claude Code or ChatGPT Codex.
A comprehensive AI briefing document tells the agent how the site is structured, so it can make precise edits from a voice prompt alone.
The site is built on Laravel — technically a website rather than a web app, but it is well worth having the full Laravel ecosystem with all its conventions and tooling, as this is exactly what makes AI-assisted editing so reliable.
