Products & Experiments

Everything in the lab

Standalone tools, running services, and things still in development. Some built for Norwegian audiences, some international, all of them intentional.

Products that ran their course or were shut down. Listed here because the work was real, and because there's usually something worth remembering about why something worked — or didn't.

The process

How something gets in the lab

Not everything makes it. Here's how ideas go from interesting to shipping.

1

Validate the problem

Does this problem actually exist, for real people, in a way that's worth solving? Talk to people first.

2

Build the smallest useful thing

Define the minimum version that gives real signal. Build that, and only that. Resist the urge to add.

3

Promote, sustain, or archive

If it finds users, invest further. If it doesn't serve its purpose anymore, archive it honestly. Both outcomes are fine.
