Automation, applied with judgment.
AI where it's strong. Code where it's smarter. Built for companies that want real results, not experiments.

The automation audit
Before we build anything, we work out what's actually worth building. I map the workflows that eat your hours and hand you a concrete plan: what to automate with AI, what to solve with plain code, and what to leave exactly as it is. Knowing the difference is where my value sits.
Custom AI systems
Agent networks, automated document generation, customer service and translation pipelines. Real production systems that hold up under load, not demos, built end to end and wired into the tools you already use.
Freelance full stack
An experienced developer for projects big and small, whether embedded in your team or delivering on my own. Python, TypeScript, React, Node.js and PHP. Clear communication, and no surprises.
First understand, then automate.
There's no point reaching for AI just to use it. Where plain code is the smarter choice, we write code. Where AI genuinely earns its place, we use AI.
Investigate: we walk through your workflows together and find the bottlenecks that actually cost you.
Prototype: a working proof within days, so you see the value before you commit to anything.
Integrate: a production ready build, wired into the systems you already run.
Handover: clear documentation and training, so your team fully owns it.
Built, shipped, still running.
Client work under NDA, so it's described anonymously here. Happy to walk you through the details on a call.

The person behind Vertex Labs.
I'm Quinten Faber, a full stack developer from Utrecht. I've been building with large language models since GPT-3.5 first showed up, early enough to learn first hand what the technology genuinely does well and where it quietly falls short.
That experience is what you actually hire: someone who has shipped agent networks, automated report generation and customer service systems into production, and who will tell you honestly when plain code beats AI.
Tell me what slows your company down.
One call, no obligations. And if automation won't actually help, I'll tell you that too. That honesty is the whole point.
