👋 About

How a lab manager ended up writing production software.

I came to software from the bench. I set up Oxford Nanopore sequencing in-house, prepared and multiplexed libraries for Illumina and Nanopore, and built the 16S, RNA-seq and metagenomics workflows that processed what came off them and somewhere in there I became the person who also built the tools. Today I run daily operations for a molecular biology section at Aarhus University, coordinate an international research consortium, and keep building.

The hard part of writing software for a laboratory is rarely the code. It is that the code has to be right about something biological it does not understand.

That is the thread through everything below. Most developers can build the system; fewer can read the data running through it. I have spent years on both sides of that line, which is why the lab’s ordering and sample database, an offline assistant my colleagues use daily, and a phenotyping pipeline that cleared months of manual measurement all look like the same job to me.

📱 Products & mobile apps

Four in production. TankBilligt and Bliv Klar on both stores, Lynkort and LabCompanion on iOS.

TankBilligt

Production

Denmark's cheapest-fuel app — 2,000+ users. iOS + Android + a Node/TS backend with server-side IAP validation and cron price-scraping.

SwiftUIComposeExpress/TSPostgreSQL

Bliv Klar

Production

Danish citizenship exam prep on iOS, Android and web — the web flow takes real money through Stripe, with the receipt, right-of-withdrawal and terms pages Danish consumer law requires.

SwiftUIComposePlay BillingStripe/PHP

Lynkort

App Store

Danish flashcards with a Leitner spaced-repetition engine, lock-screen widget, and zero external dependencies. Live on iOS; the Android build is unreleased.

SwiftUISwiftDataCloudKit

LabCompanion

App Store

Lab calculators and protocol timers with Lock Screen Live Activities and iCloud sync, for bench scientists. Live on iOS; Android in development.

SwiftUIActivityKitCloudKit

🤖 AI & automation

On-prem LLMs, local-first pipelines, autonomous agents.

labRAG

Production

A fully offline RAG assistant over lab protocols and safety documents — no cloud LLM ever sees the data. It cites a source on every answer, and says a protocol is not in the indexed set rather than inventing one.

Photo Pipeline

Production

A photographer's cull-to-stock automation: RAW culling, a three-axis local-AI scorer, and multi-agency submission.
