Building a Governance SaaS for Trustees: Why Trust Administration Needs Software

Most trusts don't fail in court. They quietly decay in practice. Missed reviews. Casual transfers. Undocumented compensation. Blended accounts. Over time, a carefully designed trust structure starts looking like an alter ego — and when a beneficiary, regulator, or court asks for proof that the trustee did their job, there's nothing to show. I built TrustOffice to fix this. Here's what I learned building a governance SaaS for a market most developers don't know exists. There are roughly 4–5 milli

Learnings from Building an MCP Server

I built an MCP server for nuzur, a project I've been working on. It fits naturally into my workflow and helps me automate flows from schema design to data changes. In this post I want to share what I learned during the process. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard, created by Anthropic in 2024, for connecting AI models to external tools and data sources. Think of it as a universal adapter for integrating with any AI assistant or agent. I started by building CRUD operation tools into

Embedding a talking AI avatar with one script tag — tried NemynAI, here's what's under the hood

Been exploring AI avatar widgets for a client project and wanted to share a quick find: NemynAI (nemynai.com.ua), a Ukrainian AI avatar platform aimed at businesses that want a chat/voice bot on their site without building anything custom. Integration is dead simple: One JS snippet, drop it anywhere in your HTML Stack (from what's documented): Voice synthesis via ElevenLabs (so decent latency/quality out of the box) Pricing tiers run €9–199/month depending on voice minutes needed (text-only vs.

Open Banking Without an eIDAS Certificate: A Practical Developer's Guide (2026)

If you've ever tried to call a European bank's open banking endpoint directly — say, to read your own account balances programmatically — you probably hit a wall that looks something like this: HTTP 401 Unauthorized {"error": "invalid_client", "error_description": "mutual TLS certificate required"} That's the eIDAS certificate gate. Under PSD2, a bank's production API is protected by mutual TLS using a qualified certificate (a QWAC), and request signing often needs a second one (QSeal). For a r

Germany's 2026 medtech squeeze: EUDAMED + HTA and what my QMS actually had to change

I started triaging this internally when a procurement lead casually asked if our change-control record could be handed to a hospital HTA team "next week." That moment made the regulatory shift real: EUDAMED visibility plus increasingly formal HTA paths in Germany are colliding into the QMS, and it’s not just paperwork — it’s data, interfaces, and traceability. Below I summarize what I’m seeing in 2026, how it affected our Class II/IIa workflows, and the concrete engineering/validation moves we m

I Taught an Open-Source SEO Tool to Check Whether Your Site Is Readable by AI Agents

Most SEO audit tools still ask the questions search engines cared about ten years ago: is your title tag the right length, do your images have alt text, is your sitemap valid. Those still matter. But a growing chunk of how people find content now goes through an AI assistant instead of a search results page, and almost no audit tool checks whether your site is even reachable by one. I picked up an open issue on open-seo (an open-source Semrush/Ahrefs alternative) to close that gap, and it turned

Architecting Android Geofencing Without Draining the Battery

It happened during a quiet afternoon at the community center. I was sitting in the third row, the silence was absolute, and then it started—the blaring, high-pitched default ringtone of my phone vibrating against the wooden pew. Every head in the room turned. My face went hot as I scrambled to silence the device, eventually just cutting the power entirely. It was one of those moments that makes you feel incredibly unprofessional, despite it being a simple, human oversight. I had forgotten to mut
