Short version

I build and ship.

I am Lian van der Vyver.

I build products, ship fast, and iterate until something works.

I care about systems, incentives, and execution. Less talk. More output.

What I build

Products with structure and real constraints.

Most of my work sits at the intersection of:

  • Incentive design
  • Monetization mechanics
  • Technical architecture
  • Execution discipline

I like markets where behavior matters and systems can compound.

What I am focused on right now

Three active projects.

Right now I am building:

  • Vdea: a video bounty marketplace
  • AquaClash: a strategy game economy built for alliances and seasons
  • Lanami: MT5 breakout systems built for structured traders

Different categories. Same approach.

Build. Measure. Improve.

How I think

Systems over noise.

I default to a few questions:

  • What are the incentives?
  • What are the constraints?
  • What breaks at scale?
  • What can be automated?

If incentives are correct and feedback loops are clear, the product becomes simpler to grow.

Outside of work

Lifestyle supports output.

I value fitness, travel, and deep focus blocks.

I am not interested in performative busyness.

I prefer consistent delivery.
