Invoices into one spreadsheet
Forty invoices a month, every one a slightly different format, typed in by hand.
One spreadsheet, filled in automatically, anything odd already flagged.

What I can do for you
Two things. I build small custom tools that take invoices, timesheets and reports off your plate. And I teach you to use AI yourself, 1-on-1 — online, or in person in Amsterdam or Utrecht.
Build
Small tools that take the admin off your plate.
Small, scoped tools for small businesses. One tool that does one job properly.
Timesheets without the chasing
A shared timesheet file half the staff forget, chased every fortnight.
Staff clock in from their phone.
The Monday report, done before you sit down
Monday morning rebuilding the same report from four different places.
It's already in your inbox when you sit down.
I'll tell you if it's not worth building. That answer is free.
Learn to use AI yourself
Learn to use AI yourself — 1-on-1 AI lessons.
I teach you myself, usually one person at a time. We start from your level, on your own phone or laptop, with your own tasks — a letter, an email, a quote, a report. Plain language, no jargon, no question too basic.
New to AI (any age)
Calm, at your pace, by video or at your table in Amsterdam or Utrecht.
Using AI in your work
Your emails, documents and workflows. You leave with prompts and templates you reuse.
What a lesson looks like
In a 1-on-1 AI lesson you learn to use ChatGPT or similar tools on your own tasks, at your own pace. Lessons are in English, mostly online, or in person in Amsterdam or Utrecht.
Not just which buttons to click — the principles behind it, so you can keep going on your own.
We use whatever you have:
Free versions are fine to start.
- What AI is good at, and what it's bad at
- Why it sometimes makes things up
- How to check an answer
- What never to type in
Price: we agree it together, before we start.
Where: mostly online. In person is possible in Amsterdam or Utrecht.
Language: English.
Learn or build?
Not sure which you need?
Some things you should learn to do yourself. Some admin you should never touch again. I do both, so I'll tell you which is which.
Learn it yourself
For writing, research and thinking.
1-ON-1 AI LESSONS →Have it built
When it's the same admin every week. Repetitive admin is often better built once as a small tool.
TOOLS I BUILD →How it works
How working with me goes.
Show me the annoying part
For a tool: half an hour, ideally with you doing the job while I watch. For a lesson: tell me what you want to learn.
I build something small, or teach you
One tool that does one job properly. Or a lesson built on your own tasks.
You stop thinking about it
It runs quietly and you go back to your actual job. I stay reachable when something changes.
Things I've built
Shipped and running.
Innerlog
A journaling app you talk to instead of type into. It listens and organises what you said into something worth reading back.
VIEW PROJECT →Alimony Calculator
Dutch alimony rules are hard to follow and expensive to have explained. This turns them into a calculation you can walk through yourself.
VIEW PROJECT →Questions
Frequently asked.
Do I need any experience with computers or AI?
No. We start at your level. If you can send a WhatsApp message, you can do this.
Which AI tools will we use?
Whatever you already have, or are allowed to use at work: ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot or Google Gemini. Free versions are fine to start.
Online or in person?
Mostly online, by video from anywhere. In person is possible in Amsterdam or Utrecht.
How many lessons do I need?
There's no fixed course. One session can be enough to get you started; book more if they're useful.
What does it cost?
There's no fixed price list. For lessons and for builds, we talk through what you need and agree a price together before we start.
Is it safe? What about my private data?
We agree upfront what goes into an AI tool and what doesn't. Never type passwords, bank details, your BSN or someone else's medical information into an AI chatbot. I'll also show you how to spot AI scams, such as cloned voices on the phone.
Can my partner or a colleague join?
Yes. A partner, a colleague or a small group is welcome. As with any lesson, we agree the price together.
How is this different from an AI course?
A course teaches what works for everyone. A lesson starts from your own tasks and your own pace.
Should I learn AI or have you build something?
Learn it yourself for writing, research and thinking. Have something built when it's the same admin every week. I do both, so I'll tell you which is which.
What do you build, and how long does it take?
Small custom tools for invoices, timesheets and reports.
How long it takes depends on the scope. Once I've seen the job, I'll tell you what to expect.
What if a tool breaks or you're unavailable?
I offer ongoing support. If a tool breaks or something in your work changes, tell me and I'll sort it out.
Get in touch
Tell me the part of your week you dread — or what you want to learn.
A few lines is enough: the admin you'd rather never touch again, or what you'd like to be able to do with AI.
If I don't think it's worth building, I'll say so — that answer is free.
