Mar 2026 – Oct 2026 Kobe AIAI superconnector: finds the warm intro to anyone through your own network.Post with a demo Founding Engineer, Berlin, team of three ~470 commits in 3 weeks (Oct 2026)
Kobe is an AI superconnector. It finds the warmest path to a person through your own network (LinkedIn, email, Slack, Notion) and drafts the intro request, sending nothing without your OK.
- Three full-time weeks in October 2026: 509 of 918 commits in the v3 repository (Hono, Cloudflare Workers, Postgres), 157 of 750 in the Electron desktop app, plus the pitch deck and kobe-eve.
- Co-developed a six-stage agent pipeline in Python (Claude Agent SDK, about 20k lines) with full agent tracing and a debug dashboard.
- Wrote a 15k-line architecture handbook across 72 repositories in two days; it surfaced a probable live bug in the LinkedIn session handling.

since Jan 2026 MitJulia (formerly Friseurtelefon)Julia answers salon phones 24/7 and books straight into the booking system.Post with a demo Software Engineer, AI Voice Agents, Remote, freelance alongside studies 100+ salons (Nov 2026)
Julia is an AI phone receptionist for hair salons. It answers calls around the clock and books, moves or cancels appointments directly in the salon's booking system. Used by 100+ salons as of November 2026.
- Built a 13-method Belbo booking driver and merged it with a colleague’s parallel integration; added the onboarding wizard, dashboard, a limitations doc and scripts against the vendor test account.
- Rebuilt the simulation dashboard (a colleague had built the predecessor) in which GPT-4o-mini plays the caller against the voice agent and a judge model rates every call; restructured the test suite from 67 to 267 atomic cases.
- Verified the “regulars only” booking gate against an independent Python re-implementation before shipping: 400 generated catalogs covering every key shape in the fleet, 3,200 comparisons, zero deviations.
