A collective. Systems that do the work for you.

Kroonwerk was founded by Ian and Laura and works as a collective: a fixed core in-house, extended with experts we have worked with for years. One point of contact, without forcing ourselves into a discipline that is not really ours. No agency bureaucracy, no sales talk. Just concrete systems and people who think with you.

Based in Ghent. Working with clients across Belgium and beyond.

Het Kroonwerk team

How Kroonwerk came to be

Two solo businesses, one sharper service.

Kroonwerk started as two separate stories. Ian ran Websolution: custom software, web apps and everything that had to work under the hood. Laura ran Paperflow: administration, follow-up and the human side of a growing business. We kept ending up at the same clients — and noticed our services kept finding each other.

Instead of juggling two invoices, two points of contact and two calendars, we joined forces. Along the way Ian shifted from software developer to AI automation specialist: less code for code’s sake, more systems that actually take work off your plate. Laura keeps doing what she does best — looking after clients, keeping the operation running, and steering everything internally at Kroonwerk.

Under one name we can focus on what really moves the needle: lead generation, automation and operations that click together. Fixed price, clear scope, short lines. What we build is yours — accounts, data, documentation. No lock-in, no surprises.

The team

Who works for you. People, not account managers.

Two co-founders, one office cat and a fixed circle of experts. Short lines, no hand-offs between five departments, and always someone who actually knows the work.

What we do in-house

  • B2B lead generation

    Appointment systems, prospecting and cold outreach with AI personalisation.

  • Process automation

    Quotes, follow-up, reporting and data-syncs on autopilot.

  • B2C lead system

    Fast, multilingual conversion sites with SEO and GEO as the engine.

  • Custom platforms

    Custom MVPs, dashboards and web apps for your own workflow.

  • Administrative support

    Human follow-up and client contact where AI is not enough.

For branding, interior architecture and advertising we work with fixed experts in our collective.

How we work

Four principles we don’t bend on.

  1. 01

    Fixed price, clear scope

    No hourly billing, no surprises on your invoice. You know up front what you get, when, and for what amount.

  2. 02

    You own everything

    Accounts, data, code and documentation are in your name. If you ever want to switch or take it in-house, you can — no vendor lock-in.

  3. 03

    Systems that pay for themselves

    We only build what earns its keep in time or customers. If it does not work, we stop honestly instead of billing more.

  4. 04

    People where needed, AI where possible

    AI handles 80% of the repetitive work. The remaining 20% — phone, judgement, nuance — stays human. We don’t pick one, we combine both.

One call. After that you know whether we are a fit.
