- 12 m² kite, 20 kn:
- ≈ kg pullRough: 2D section scaled to a kite with aspect ratio 5, no losses.
I studied aerospace engineering
because I wanted to build kites.
Part 8: still in the lab.
Separated flow. This model has
no viscosity, so the separation
is drawn, not computed.
Section A-AMXF Labs mark · NACA 4412 profile · Scale NTS · Item numbers match the parts list
Streamlines: two dimensional potential flow around a Joukowski section fitted to this profile. A sketch, not a solver. Potential flow has no drag (d'Alembert's paradox), so this model shows lift only.

General notes
How MXF Labs works
Unless otherwise specified:
- Problems I had first.
Most products started as my own problem: database GUIs I did not like, kite spots and kite jobs I know from years on the water, memory for my own Claude Code sessions. PPWR-DOC is the exception: it started as research into a regulation every packaging company suddenly had to follow.
- One time prices where they work.
QueryGlow, ShotsGlow and PPWR-DOC are sold once, no subscription.
- Your data stays where it is.
QueryGlow runs on your server, ShotsGlow removes backgrounds on your machine, Pebble keeps memory in your repo.
- Built with Claude.
Claude Code is my daily tool for building, and Claude runs inside the products where it helps: QueryGlow's Agent Access and Ask AI, kiteCOMPASS spot analysis, ThemenFlow.
- This site practices it.
No cookies, no trackers, no third party requests, fonts served from here.
Claude
Note C: where Claude runs
- MXF-01 QueryGlow in the product
- Agent Access, a built in MCP endpoint, lets Claude Code and Claude Desktop query your databases through tokens that are read only by default, with every agent call logged. Ask AI can run on Claude with your own key and sends the schema, never rows.
- MXF-04 kiteCOMPASS in the data
- Claude Haiku 4.5 read a satellite image of every spot to classify spot type, difficulty and hazards and to draft its description.
- MXF-06 Pebble for Claude Code
- Built for Claude Code. Pebble itself makes no model calls. I use it in my own projects.
- MXF-07 claude-code-seo for Claude Code
- Built for Claude Code: slash commands that run inside Claude Code against your own Search Console and DataForSEO data.
- MXF-02/03/05 ShotsGlow, PPWR-DOC, KitesurfOK in the workshop
- None in the products. Built with Claude Code.

Founder

Max Fischer
Born and raised in Bavaria. I studied aerospace engineering because I wanted to build kites. Kitesurfer since 2011, and I taught kitesurfing for six years.
After about a year in a corporate job I taught myself to code and started building my own products. I work from Germany and, a lot of the year, from a camper van somewhere in Europe.
