Independent software lab
Mostly harmless. Occasionally experimental.
Useful software, local-first AI, automation and the occasional questionable experiment. Built carefully enough to be useful and curiously enough to stay interesting.
Building tools. Solving problems. Reaching Magrathea.
Mission
Building tools. Solving problems. Reaching Magrathea.
The long-term aim of Grimstuf Labs is to create useful, reliable software and the systems required to build future projects.
Flagship project
The long-term platform for creating, structuring and governing projects.
Built for Grimstuf Labs. Designed to be useful to everyone.
Magrathea Project Factory is the foundation upon which Grimstuf Labs builds and governs its projects. Originally created to solve our own problems, it is being designed to grow into a platform that individuals, teams and organisations can use to create, structure and evolve projects of their own.
Current projects
Active development
Local AI. More control. Fewer excuses.
Connect Vector robots to Ollama and Wire-Pod, monitor their health and manage local models without turning the desk into an infrastructure project.
Beta readiness
Websites in. Translation-ready content out.
Crawl, resume and extract with controlled depth and project-based output. Try not to break the internet.
Internal field testing
Find the problems before somebody else does.
Document checks, scanned-page detection and OCR workflow support for localisation preparation.
Internal field testing
Because fi should not become a project risk.
Find and clean up ligatures, odd characters and post-OCR text problems, then move on.
Exploration
Bad ideas welcome.
A-42 is where small tools, technical experiments and ideas are tested to see which ones deserve to become something larger.
