Rapid Prototype Engineering
Turning product concepts, interactive mechanics and software tools into testable MVPs — and hardening what proves itself for production.
Prototype engineering · AI workflows · R&D lab
Bonovation is a prototype engineering consultancy and R&D lab. I architect custom AI workflows, scalable software systems, and apps for web and Android — from the first prototype through to production.
01 / Consulting & prototyping
Fast, zero-bloat execution from raw concept to functional vertical slice or production deployment.
Turning product concepts, interactive mechanics and software tools into testable MVPs — and hardening what proves itself for production.
Practical, deterministic AI pipelines that solve real production bottlenecks — beyond chat wrappers, towards automated asset generation and simulation.
Resilient, sovereign backend architectures built on proven open-source tooling.
A prototype tests assumptions; it is not automatically a production-ready system. When it proves itself, I help take it there: stability, security, integration and operations.
Discuss your project02 / Built work
Two live websites I built end to end — from the interface to the workflows behind it.
Website · Shop · Custom booking
Website for a ceramic-painting studio on an alpaca farm. Visitors browse workshops and events, book a slot online and buy vouchers or take-home kits in the integrated shop. The studio manages bookings in a custom back office.
Visit website — Atelier Mondo (opens in a new tab)Website · Shop · Custom booking
Website for alpaca walks and experiences. Guests pick an experience, see open dates and book directly. The shop sells vouchers and alpaca products. Custom booking and management, on a codebase shared with Atelier Mondo.
Visit website — Alpakamondo (opens in a new tab)Four Android apps I designed and built entirely myself: three are in closed testing, one is being prepared for its Play Store release.
Sleep timer
Watch or listen until the timer runs out, without the phone playing on through the night.
In closed testing
Household chores
A chore app for households: share out what needs doing and earn rewards for the things you take care of.
In closed testing
Baby tracker
Track feeding and other activities, and share photos with your family.
In closed testing
3D archery scoring
Score rounds on 3D archery courses for the whole group on one phone, with every result counted in each archer’s own account.
Play Store release in preparation
03 / Bonovation Lab
Bonovation Lab is where I try new tools and workflows on my own projects first: multi-agent AI pipelines, automated asset workflows and in-house prototypes. It is the working proof behind the consulting.
Featured showcase Gemini ↔ Claude
Solving LLM spatial blindness in 3D asset creation.
Also in the lab
YouTube / Devlogs
On the Bonovation Lab channel I show prototypes as they take shape and talk through new ways of working with AI — what holds up in practice and what does not.

04 / Work directly with me
Product manager & passionate developer
Daniel on LinkedIn (opens in a new tab)I am a product manager who develops out of passion. I care about the problem behind an idea and about how a solution works for the people who use it.
Bonovation combines product thinking with hands-on development. UX is part of the thinking from the start. You work directly with me — from the first question to making sense of the results.
Understand the product. Think about use. Try the technology.
Before we work together
Yes. A challenge or an existing process is enough as a starting point. Together we work out where the leverage could be and whether consulting, a prototype or another route makes sense.
The first conversation is free. In it we talk about the goal, the constraints and the open questions. A sensible scope follows from that. Concrete deliverables, effort and terms are agreed before any engagement begins.
The knowledge about your business, your users and your existing systems stays central. At the start we clarify who can give feedback, which interfaces matter and how the work fits into your day-to-day.
Which source code, documentation, usage rights and handover steps belong to the engagement is agreed before we begin. Existing systems, licences and later maintenance are explicitly part of that conversation.
A prototype tests specific assumptions. Depending on the application, production use needs more: stability, security, data protection, integration and operations. These differences are made visible in the technical assessment, and I help with the step into production if you want to take it.
Data sources, access rights, confidentiality and technical limits have to fit the use case. For a first contact, a description of the challenge is enough. Please do not send confidential data or documents at first.
Your next step
Briefly describe your challenge. The first conversation is free and takes about 30 minutes: we clarify the goal, the constraints and whether consulting, a prototype or the path to production fits best.
Or by email
Your name, the challenge and the current state are enough for a first contact. Please do not send confidential documents yet. Any implementation starts only after a separate agreement.
