About Django.
Builder of production AI, co-founder of Kamoo. No demos, but systems that still work on a Monday morning.
I'm Django de Vreng. I build production AI for clients: agents, MCP servers, on-prem deployments on a DGX Spark. I also train teams that want to build with AI themselves. I do that through Kamoo, where I'm a co-founder.
Most of my attention right now goes to agents, MCP, local models, evaluations, vLLM and on-prem setups, and the question of how you get this reliably into production. I want to know where a model is good enough, where an agent gets too much freedom, which evals are useful, and which architecture is still readable when you have to dive back in three months later.
AI got interesting to me when it started looking less like a text box and more like a software layer: fetching context, calling tools, preparing decisions, handing work back to people at the right moment. It's still messy terrain. That's exactly why it's fun to build in.
I like to look past the perfect demo. An agent that runs locally, produces logs, handles sensitive data and stays explainable under pressure is more interesting than a clip where everything works in one take. That clip usually lies a little. Nice to watch, but still.
On-prem AI interests me mostly because not all data can just go to a hosted model. Some companies and organisations work with personal data, internal documents or customer data that has to stay closer to home. That's when architecture suddenly gets practical: which part runs locally, which part may go out, and where's the line between handy and unwise? Whether local also adds up financially, I work out in what a DGX Spark costs per month.
On this blog I write about that kind of work. Build logs of what we make, notes on on-prem AI on a DGX Spark, short field notes from practice, and the occasional reflection. Not to explain AI from scratch, but to show what happens once you start building with it. The raw numbers behind those stories I collect in the arena.
Outside work I do a lot of sport and go hiking with friends a few times a year. That's usually exactly what it should be: walking, talking, being outside, making the phone matter a little less.
