Hi ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป, I'm Tobias Leinss.
I build privacy-first apps you can install today.

I design and ship small, focused apps that run on your own device. Most of them work fully offline; the AI features are optional and use a key you bring yourself. No accounts, no telemetry, no backend collecting your data.

๐Ÿ‘‹ A little about me

Tobias Leinss

I'm a full-stack engineer who builds end-to-end: mobile and desktop apps, web platforms, on-device and bring-your-own-key AI, and the self-hosted infrastructure behind them. I care about software that respects the people using it โ€” local-first, transparent about what leaves the device, and pleasant to use.

Before focusing on my own apps I spent years building Web3 and AI systems for companies and teams โ€” smart contracts, backends, devops and AI integration. That background still shows up in the apps.

๐Ÿค– AI consulting

Alongside the apps I offer generative-AI consulting and implementation through Leinss Consulting โ€” helping German Mittelstand and service companies put LLMs to work: customer-service chatbots, knowledge-base assistants, and process automation. If that's a fit, let's talk.
