A trivial detail that annoys everyone: hanging pictures straight and in a grid. Solved with geometry, not with marketing.
I build things, scrap things and pass some of them on. And I like to walk a stretch with people. This is what I’m working on right now — and how you can join in.
“Nur ein Typ” has been my personal brand for a while. It was time to redesign this site, rethink it — and ask myself honestly what it’s actually for. This is the relaunch.
My company. We build the technology once — and use it in many markets.
Swypoint is founded and based in Amsterdam. We build a white-label app with system integration: one shared core, dressed up anew for every product category. We call these markets verticals.
Each vertical becomes a company of its own within the Swypoint family. The first four:
Primary and secondary market. The first vertical is called WATCHWATCH: watches find you.
in progressWine, whisky, champagne, gin — everything that fits into a good bottle.
looking for peopleCars, classics, youngtimers, motorbikes, boats and aircraft.
looking for peoplePokémon, records, pop art, art, vinyl toys — pop culture at its finest.
looking for peopleThe first book in a series — and the beginning of my own publishing house. Volume 1 comes out with the launch of WATCHWATCH.
The most important part of the watch market is quiet. It doesn’t happen in ads, but in forums, auction catalogues, long essays and chat groups — where collectors tell each other whom to trust.
This book makes the quiet rules visible: how collectors read a listing in seconds, why a photo builds trust or destroys it, how prices really come about, where the dark side of the market begins and why every region sells differently.
Fourteen chapters, written from inside the market. For dealers who want to understand how their buyers think today — and for anyone who wants to know how this game really works.
“Collectors don’t want another platform. They want to finally stop being the search engine themselves.”
Watches on screen, from 1962 to today: which legends are true — and which aren’t? One watch per spread. Drawn on the left, decoded on the right.
With this book, my own publishing house begins.
A project close to my heart, in Provence. Not giving too much away yet — just this much:
Vertical farming, solar-powered, hydroponic, sustainable. A mini farm with 50 towers, from which a whole product range will grow.
You could call it a hobby. But one that pays for itself — with its own revenue. Let’s see where the journey goes.
The core of my DNA — and right now my giveback project. First people in Amsterdam, Munich and Berlin.
Listening. Supporting. Helping. Being open. Anyone can get in touch here: ask questions, get feedback, pick up an impulse.
The topic doesn’t matter to me — I just need context. Then I deliver. If I can help, I’m glad. If there’s a reward at the end, good. But there doesn’t have to be.
“Give me context. I deliver.”
Get in touch →With the first people, I’m building real assistant systems, tailored to each person. You can buy a lot of things off the shelf. But hardly anything that runs locally and isn’t tied to a cloud. That’s exactly what I’m working on — and the first results prove me right.
What it’s about. A few sentences of context are enough.
We talk. I listen and ask questions.
You get a questionnaire, tailored to you alone.
We condense. Usually that’s it. Only very specific wishes call for a third round.
Step by step to your system — built around you.
With an AI assistant at your side that works only for you.
This is where it really matters to me that you do it yourself. That way you grow into it, understand what’s happening and lose your fear of it. In the end you know your system — 100 % tailored to you — and use it without hesitation.
A word I built for myself. It stands above everything I start.
Build your own. Stand by it. And build it so it holds — even when things get hard.
Not everything has to belong to me. Some things I build so that someone else can carry them on — as a finished project, with a piece of me on board.
A trivial detail that annoys everyone: hanging pictures straight and in a grid. Solved with geometry, not with marketing.
A shield against fraud targeting older people — born out of my own family. Conceived as a European alliance.
A small problem from everyday school life, a big system failure behind it. Conceived as an association, not a business.
A framework in which young people aged 14 to 18 practise responsibility. Youth protection first. It needs a founding team.
Infrastructure for independent real estate entrepreneurs — without franchise. Whoever carries the success should also own it.
A tote bag with dedicated compartments for shoes. Four lines, drawings and materials are ready.
A small circle of people who would rather sit with a thought for a while than judge it right away.
Join in →A big, carefully costed offer was on the table. I stopped it. Why — it’s in the Desk.
Read →The workbench is never empty. Do you have a project that belongs here — or are you looking for exactly that kind of thing?
Write me →Who you are and what you plan to do with the project. A few sentences are enough.
One conversation. If it fits on a human level, we carry on.
With a mutual confidentiality agreement, I show you everything you need for a decision.
You take over and lead. I stay on board as an advisor if you want.
What you see here is the shop window. The details come in conversation.
Not long ago I had a big, professional offer on the table to develop a classic app. Carefully costed. Well presented. Ambitious. And that’s exactly why I stopped it. Not because it was bad. But because, as I see it, it no longer had a real future.
Michelin-starred kitchen in Berlin, then Paris, London, Munich, Leipzig.
Looked for distance. Found perspective.
Gemmology, rubies, emeralds, sapphires. My own wholesale business.
Crashes and fresh starts. Ever since: distance creates clarity.
Big houses, then self-employed again.
From diamonds to the stones houses are built from.
Swypoint, Amsterdam. And this little notebook here.
A few sentences of context are enough. Whether you want to help build a vertical, take over a project or simply pick up an impulse.
