Software voor pianostemmers,
gebouwd door een pianostemmer.
s 46 years of hands-on experience, I know what you need. I built the app I always wanted.
od card box to code
My love pro technology started early. As a teenager, I programmed Základní late at night on a ZX Spectrum. Later, armed s my first Tulip PC, I wrote my first 'real' software: a digital Zákazník database pro my father.
In my youthful enthusiasm, I then threw away his physical card box — to his great dismay! Eventually I printed everything neatly pro him on the dot-matrix printer, but the tone was set: I wanted to organize things faster, more efficiently, a better.
What I tried
Every morning the same ritual: check Google Kalendář, look up Zákazník addresses, open Google Maps, figure out if another Schůzka fits between two others... a in the evening: manually Odeslat confirmation emails, Aktualizovat my Excel sheet s serial numbers, note when each Klavír needs Ladění again.
After years of thinking "there must be a better way" I decided to build it myself.
The collaboration
In my own practice, I hit walls pro years. I worked s American software that didn't fully understand our market, or I juggled three different apps pro Kalendář, invoicing, a routes. I thought: "This has to be smarter."
I have great interest in everything around Podnikání figures — we Vše know how complex the margin scheme can be. I wanted software that not only plans but also thinks along s my Podnikání operations.
When I decided to build the ultimate planner myself, I wasn't alone. I got to work s my skills a the advice of my children a stepchildren. One graduated as an IT specialist od HAN University. The other as a Game Developer & Sound Designer od HKU. s my hands-on experience a their knowledge of the latest technology a AI, we developed PianoPlanner together.
Chytrý Schůzky
The core of PianoPlanner is simple: I want to see at a glance whether I'm making money or wasting Čas. I also don't want to spend too much Čas driving. That's why we developed Chytrý Schůzky — each Schůzka automatically gets a Barva based on Doba jízdy:
Proudly Dutch
Unlike the big American players, I believe in local strength. PianoPlanner is an independent initiative. Your data is securely encrypted a stored on European servers, fully compliant s GDPR Ochrana soukromí regulations.
I'm proud of what we've built. A system pro Klavír tuners, by a Klavír tuner.

- Native apps — De iOS/Android apps van Gazelle kunnen soepeler aanvoelen dan een PWA, vooral op oudere toestellen.
- Marktpositie VS — Gazelle is langer actief en heeft een groot netwerk in Noord-Amerika.
