Products & Services
An open-source harness that turns GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, or Linear issues into implemented, reviewed, pull-requested, and optionally merged changes using a selected coding agent. It runs against local repositories and is distributed through npx/npm.
An Eiffel-based open-source converter from Xplain statements to SQL, with support for PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, SQL Server, InterBase, Firebird, DB/2, Oracle, SQLite, ANSI-92 SQL, Access, and FoxPro, plus an online version and npm package.
A complete Eiffel-to-POSIX/Standard C binding with file, socket, process, signal, shared-memory, asynchronous-I/O, protocol-client, HTTP-server, MIME, hashing, and portability-layer functionality.
Reusable AWS CDK projects including cdk-rds-sql, cdk-drizzle-migrate, cdk-lambda-env-var, cdk-opennext, cdk-turso, and the related cdk-local-lambda project.
Market Position
Berend's software is positioned as open-source, developer-controlled tooling rather than a conventional SaaS company. Ready for Agent differentiates itself from cloud-based agent factories and generic coding assistants by running against an existing local clone, using the developer's existing coding-agent subscriptions, supporting multiple forges, and automating the issue-to-implementation-to-PR/merge loop while retaining human design and verification. The repository describes it as a metaharness and cites Lovable's agentic-coding workflow as inspiration.
Founding Story
The official site is a personal homepage rather than a corporate site. It presents a long-running portfolio of software, technical writing, and open-source projects; the newer Ready for Agent project was created to remove the babysitting between an issue and a merged pull request and to help a developer reach 150+ PRs per week.
