Side projects
A few things I've built
Projects I build in my spare time — from local AI infrastructure to native apps. Happy to walk you through the details.

AI Studio
A self-hosted studio for the whole small-model workflow: curate data, fine-tune or train from scratch, evaluate, and serve the result over an OpenAI-compatible API — on GPUs you own.
View project
SharpAI
A .NET 9 inference server that runs LLMs and speech-to-text locally behind an OpenAI-compatible API — a drop-in replacement you fully control.
View project
OpenTrafficDB
A self-hosted platform for ingesting, storing and serving live traffic data — the data backbone behind a full routing and navigation stack.
View project
ZeroVDI
A lightweight ASP.NET RDP Gateway that exposes Remote Desktop services safely, with a workspace feed the native Windows Remote Desktop app can subscribe to.

Evora — AI Health Companion
A native iOS health app that understands meals from a photo, reads Apple Health data, and turns it into clear, personal guidance — backed by a .NET API.
View project

A full-stack productivity app: a native iOS client paired with a .NET 10 API, wired end to end with Apple and Azure services.

Hi, I'm Maximilian Kenfenheuer
I lead the AI Advisory team of BearingPoint’s Enterprise Microsoft Transformation business unit. My work sits where technology decisions meet business value: which AI use cases pay off, how to govern them, and how to bring them safely into operations — including in banks and insurers.
A background in software development keeps me close to the technology. In my spare time I build AI tooling such as AI Studio and SharpAI, and I take on selected freelance projects in software development and web design.
Freelance
Selected freelance work on the side
Alongside my role I take on a small number of freelance projects — software, integrations and websites with clear scope and honest estimates.
Software Development
Custom applications, APIs and integrations engineered to fit your processes — not the other way around.
- Web apps & backends (.NET / C#)
- REST APIs & system integrations
- Automation & internal tooling
Website Design
Fast, modern, accessible websites — designed and built bespoke, with a CMS your team can actually use.
- Design & front-end development
- Umbraco CMS builds
- Performance, SEO & accessibility
Technical Consulting
A second pair of eyes on architecture, delivery and the tricky decisions — so you build the right thing once.
- Architecture & code review
- Cloud & deployment (Docker / CI)
- Technical guidance for founders

Four complete, editable website templates I designed and built on Umbraco — each with its own distinct design language, from a light SaaS look to a heavy industrial one. Open any of them live.
