Started Invenso with a product to allow the AS400 (IBMi) to exchange data with other systems. That product XMLBridge was developed by me in the previous years during spare moments, written in C and RPGLE and found its way to big companies in the Benelux. The success of the company allowed us to recreate and extend the product, renamed XBintegrator, a platform neutral easy to develop with ESB in contrast to other big initiatives.In 2003 document generation was added to the list of options in our product build on top of Microsoft Word and its new XSD capabilities. In 2015 document generation became our core offering, build on top of XBintegrator. The offering was branded as XperiDo. XperiDo come in two flavors, XperiDo nucleus for OEM and XperiDo for CRM as out of the box solution to create documents in CRM. 2017, XBintegrator underneath is replaced and XperiDo receives a new foundation to serve our goals for the next decade. Main job profile now is to participate in managing Invenso on a technical level, to act as innovation officer to look forwards.

Convenso is started to act as service company for Invenso. With XBintegrator, Convenso was able to create ambitious projects like a SMS parking application, Pricing optimisation using AI.
