    Benedicte builds an MCP server for Outseta. Benedikt and the Userlist team set a launch date for the redesign.

    Now that school is back on in Norway, Benedicte is trying to validate the idea for an audio guide platform called Omvei by reconnecting with former clients.

    Benedikt has been working on a new API to manage topics, as well as templating support for workflows in Userlist.

  • Family-product Fit
    Aug 8 2025

    The Pirate family searches for family-product fit. Benedikt shuts down his first SaaS product.

    The Userlist team makes more progress on their app and website redesign project, which will be shipped a couple of weeks from now. And after running it for 10 years, Benedikt has made the decision to shut down his very first SaaS product.

    Despite feeling a little blah about the tech industry, Benedicte was able to code for fun again by testing out Laravel for Whee’s log in page. She and Ola are also digging into their old product ideas, using their family-product fit approach to figure out what’s actually worth pursuing.

  • Summers in Europe
    Jul 24 2025

    Benedicte and her Pirate family enjoy their new summer plans. Benedikt comes back from his two-week vacation.

    Two weeks after jumping ship, the Pirate family have made new plans and are enjoying different activities. On the work front, Benedicte did a solid week of AI work for Outseta, and she and Ola are revisiting their old SaaS ideas.

    The Userlist team’s redesign project is coming along nicely, with Benedikt focusing on the redesign of the website. They also brought back their co-working sessions so he and Jane can get more stuff done.
