I’m a systems thinker and software engineer with a deep focus on solving hard, often overlooked problems - especially in areas like web development, algorithm design, low-level optimization, language engineering, and applied AI. My work is driven by a simple principle: build things that are genuinely useful and intellectually honest.
Over the years, I’ve created and contributed to a wide range of client projects, OSS libraries, tools, and demos that push technical boundaries - from web frameworks, ultra-fast math libraries, and compact NLP systems for hybrid search and language identification, to encoders/decoders, domain-specific languages (DSLs), browser extensions, PWAs, agentic graph-reasoning workflows, and advanced multicore WebAssembly or JIT-optimized solutions for the web platform.
I value clarity, correctness, and elegance over trends or hype - and prefer deep, focused work over shallow visibility.
If you’re here because something I built helped you - or something I posted inspired you - that’s the best outcome I could hope for.
- 🛠️ What I'm working on right now:
- Bonsai-Llama-Jev - The first multimodal, Jev-like typed decisions inference server that also supports OpenAI compatible API at the same time and performs better than any other benchmarked open Jev-like model as of 2026-09-22
- typed-decision-bench - Large typed decision model evaluation benchmark and novel calibration standard (
calibration.json) for any typed decision inference system, covering 275 distinct use-cases and 27,598 individual decisions for Jev-like open typed decision models. - defuss - Frustrated about the complexity in modern web dev, I've created my own vision of how simple, deterministic, small, elegant and extremely performant a synergistic React-, Next.js-, jQuery clone could look like -- this is pretty complete and stable now after being in development since 2018 (was called "SpringType" once)
- easy-erechnung - The only cross-platform, fully open-source and AI-supported app to create valid Factur-X/ZuGPFeRD invoices (EU) - currently in beta, 1 year in development

- Neuramancer.de - Reliable deepfake detection (local AI, inference, training, ML research, data pipelines, APIs, web apps) - since end of 2024
- HYOBAN.ai - Professional, AI-driven review management, analytics & competitor monitoring (cloud AI, APIs, ML research, agent engineering, prompt engineering, OpenAI startup partner) - since early 2024
- 🔬 Current focus interest:
- (Local) Agentic systems/autonomous bots, AI research, vector retrieval/indexing, NLP algorithms in general, small-scale model architecture and training, novel ML algos from scratch - fusion of SoTA non-AI algos with tiny local AI models of all kinds
- High performance web tech (WebAssembly, SIMD, WebGPU, JIT optimization & co.), Rust-based multicore WebAssembly ports (prev. Emscripten/C)
- LLMs, GPTs, RLHF, GRPO, QLoRA, ... (every non-vapor-paper)
- ASTs, stack-based executors, DSLs
- NLP/search algos, tokenizers, encoders
- High performance audio synthesis, routing, sampling, mixing, and analysis algorithms
- Web frameworks (see my work on
defuss, which re-invents the whole frontend web-tech wheel)
- 🔬 Novel algorithms and computer science / research projects I've worked on:
- I'm in the process of moving the most useful algorithms under the
defussframework umbrella for production use. e.g. seedefuss/fastmath's vector lib - it provides 25 GFLOP/s vector calculations in-browser on Apple M3 (!!!) - Ringbuf.js - TypeScript port and JIT optimizations -- wait-free thread-safe single-consumer single-producer ring buffer using SharedArrayBuffer. PR
- langdetect-ts - Port of Google LangDetect, the state-of-the-art language ngram-based language detection (identification) library to TypeScript.
- fast-dotproduct - Aims to be the fastest dot product calculation library for in-browser use. Backbone of RedakTool's vectorstore.
- vectorstore - In-browser, vector store featuring very fast vector indexing, storage, serialization, product quantization and search (exact, kMeans, HNSW) balancing search quality and memory/computational constraints.
- quality-prompts-js - Write Quality Prompts using auto-optimization. Use and evaluate prompting techniques quickly. Learnings used in
liquipromptfor automatic prompt optimizations. [AI Auto Research back in 2024] - liquiprompt - The prompt language used in RedakTool. Simple but powerful prompt and RAG workflow templating language (DSL) featuring D(A/C)G parse/test/run orchestration.
- clientside-search - "Lucene in the browser + Node.js"; highly efficient, isomorphic, full-featured, multilingual text search engine library, providing full-text search, fuzzy matching, document indexing and more EXPERIMENTAL. In transit to
defuss/search - easy-embeddings - In-browser vector embeddings made easy using WebGPU and WebAssembly acceleration.
- cross-llm - Abstract LLM/vector embedding implementation. A universal library to integrate with LLMs and Vector Embedding endpoints. Supports Node.js, Deno, Bun, Service Workers, Web Extensions.
- offline-geocode-city - smallest and fastest offline reverse geocoder for country/city on NPM, in-browser, Node.js, service worker, using S2 cell geometry
- @jsheaven/perf - an algorithm to estimate the average runtime and time-complexity (big O notation) of (a)sync algorithms in JavaScript/TypeScript projects
- brotli-unicode - a novel algorithm for encoding/decoding and character level compression/decompression with character-level compression rates of >500%. The compressed data is copy-pasteable without data loss
- base-unicode - a novel algorithm for encoding/decoding in a Unicode symbol plane that makes use of printable characters of all kinds of languages; this allows for thousands of symbols to be used instead of only 64 like in base64
