About

Engineer by trade.Founder by nature.

I started my career as a software engineer — and never stopped at just writing code. Today, at 24, I run two companies: Food Order AG, a fair food ordering platform expanding across Switzerland, and Codelance GmbH, an IT company that builds websites, e-commerce shops, web applications, custom software and apps.

My path started in 2018 with Giosto, my own clothing brand. Since then it has always been the same loop: spot a real problem, build the product, ship it — and make it better every single day.

Commission at Food Order

Two companies.One obsession.

Building products that solve real problems — for Swiss restaurants, for ambitious businesses, for developers.

01Since 2020·Founder

Food Order AG

Saving restaurants from the platforms.

The problem

The big delivery platforms take 15–36% commission on every single order. For restaurants running on thin margins, that is the difference between profit and loss.

The answer

Food Order takes 0%. Restaurants keep 100% of their margin, own their customer relationships and set their own prices — no fixed costs, no hidden fees. Built since 2020, grown into a platform with products for every corner of Swiss gastronomy.

02Since 2022·Founder

Codelance GmbH

Digital products, engineered in Switzerland.

The problem

Great businesses deserve software that fits them — not templates they have to bend around.

The answer

Codelance is an IT company specialised in websites, e-commerce shops, individual web applications, custom software, UI/UX design and app development. From the first sketch to production — and beyond. Flagship work includes a leading lead platform for newly founded Swiss companies, the cyber security platform Sondar and the AI fitness app Kalo.

Platforms, apps and developer tools — built with Codelance or as my own products.

01 / 04Cyber Security Platform

Sondar

Cybersecurity made visible.

A Swiss web security scanner that finds real gaps on your own website. Passive surface checks — security headers, TLS, DNS, exposed files — plus authorised, non-destructive active testing after domain verification. Self-service, with full audit trails and reports in German and English.

02 / 04AI Fitness App

Kalo

Kalorien, counted for you.

Kalo — short for the German Kalorien — is a fitness app that takes the pain out of counting calories. AI integration does the heavy lifting, and every feature is designed to make your journey simpler: log faster, understand your intake and stay on track without the spreadsheet feeling.

hollerlog

Dead-simple logging that hollers.

A logging package for developers. Log whatever you want in your application and stop worrying about integrations to a dozen other systems — one line to install, a live dashboard you can leave on a screen, and alerts in Slack, Discord or email. Just log what you need and you're ready to go.

Lead Platform

Reach founders on day one.

A leading lead platform for newly founded companies in Switzerland. Fresh registrations are surfaced and enriched, so service providers can reach new founders at the exact moment they need them — not months later.

Before code,there was cloth.

Before Food Order, in 2018, I launched Giosto — my own clothing brand and online shop. I designed every product exactly the way I wanted it to be, uploaded it to my shop, and people started buying. They loved the material quality and the designs.

For specific pieces where I couldn't find a supplier good enough, I partnered with Champion. Giosto taught me what still drives me today: build what you believe in, ship it, and let people decide.

    The best things I've built started with a conversation. Let's have one.

Off the clock

When I'm not shipping, I'm moving: on court, in the gym, on two wheels or on a board.

Summer

On the road

In the summer you'll find me on the road with my motorbike.

Winter

Up the mountains

In winter I'm up in the mountains, snowboarding.

Passion

Motorsport

Cars and bikes, two wheels or four: I love motorsport. Probably why this site moves the way it does.
