About

I’m building software for football clubs. At BossLab, I focus on practical tools that help clubs bring more structure, overview and communication into their daily operations. No overly complex systems or unnecessary features, just tools that fit the reality of how clubs actually work day to day. Current products include: - SquadIQ, focused on squad overview, contracts, player availability and long-term squad planning - WhatsApp-based communication and automation tools for planning, FAQs and member communication - ClubPulse, a sponsor reporting tool that helps clubs show their reach across WhatsApp, social media and website traffic in one simple overview The goal is simple: take the fragmented and manual processes that still exist inside many clubs and turn them into clear, scalable systems. I work hands-on, build fast, and improve everything directly together with clubs. If you’re involved in a football club and recognise the chaos behind the scenes, feel free to reach out.
