I’m Maarten Tolhuijs, the independent software engineer behind C-Point Labs. My projects range from Orduno, which helps print shops prepare group clothing orders from sizes, print details and payment status, to Chess Console, which helps chess players understand engine analysis.

Two applications, each with its own purpose and current availability.

Paid pilot by arrangement

One order round.
One clear batch.

Orduno helps small print shops handle group clothing orders.

Participants enter sizes and print details through one link. The print shop reviews payment status, then prepares garment totals and individual packing lists from the included orders.

INDEPENDENT PROJECT

Limited early access

Chess Console

From engine evaluation to a move you understand.

I built Chess Console for my own study of openings and positions. It combines Stockfish with AI explanations and is available in limited pre-access on its own site.

03 / HOW I WORK

I want to see the reasoning, not just the result.

Orduno and Chess Console look nothing alike. In both, the useful part is being able to see how a result was reached.

  1. 01

    Find the decision

    Which orders belong in the batch? Which engine move deserves a closer look? Start there.

  2. 02

    Keep the evidence close

    Show payment status beside an order and analysis beside a suggested move. Let people check for themselves.

  3. 03

    Make the result usable

    A purchasing list, a packing list or an explanation worth studying again should answer the question that started the work.

04 / ABOUT MAARTEN

Where C-Point gets its name.

Before writing software, I studied counterpoint at the conservatory in Alkmaar. In counterpoint, each voice has its own line while contributing to the whole. That gave C-Point Labs its name. I carry the same interest into software: how do separate choices, people and pieces of information work together?
