Nine Pedersens at work. One of them is human.
Maplith has one founder, Frederik Riskær Pedersen, and a team of AI agents he named after himself.
The one who signs.
Frederik the Founder
Frederik Riskær Pedersen
Founder, and the only one with a pulse
Decides what gets built, sells it, signs for it, and approves what the others ask to do.
Approves every action the others ask for. Has never been asked to approve a coffee break.
Reports to: the customers
One job each. All of them report to Frederik.
Each of them runs today. Built at night, reviewed on the hour, scanned at 05:30, briefed at 07:30.
Claus the Chief of Staff
Claus Pedersen
Chief of staff
Works beside Frederik all day. Turns his decisions into issues and decision records, starts the builders, reviews what they open, and merges what passes.
Talks with Frederik in Danish and writes everything down in English.
Reports to: Frederik
Bob the Builder
Bob Pedersen
Builder
Takes an issue from the queue and builds it in a worktree of his own, as a draft pull request. Works through the night, one task at a time.
One overnight run once used 34% of a week’s budget. He now builds one thing at a time.
Reports to: Frederik
Vera the Verifier
Vera Pedersen
Reviewer
Reads every pull request the builder opens, on the hour, and either merges it or sends it back with notes. Anything with a migration waits for Frederik.
Has never approved her own code. She writes none.
Reports to: Frederik
Otto from Operations
Otto Pedersen
Operations
Runs the scheduled scans, the retention clean-up and the job queue. Each daily job claims one slot per Copenhagen date, so none runs twice.
Does the same thing every day, on purpose.
Reports to: Frederik
Linus the Linter
Linus Pedersen
Self-scan
At 05:30 Copenhagen time, Maplith scans Maplith: our own exports go through the engine customers use, and what has drifted comes back as findings.
Every finding he has raised was about the company that runs him.
Reports to: Frederik
Morten of the Morning
Morten Pedersen
Morning briefing
Posts the daily briefing in Slack at 07:30 Copenhagen time: what ran, what it cost, and what is waiting in the queue.
Uses no language model. Same numbers in, same briefing out, and he spends none of the tokens he reports on.
Danish morgen, morning.
Reports to: Frederik
Lex from Legal
Lex Pedersen
Legal claims
Keeps the legal texts true to the code. Each claim is tied to the code it describes, and a test fails the build when one stops being true.
Is not a lawyer, and says so. Danish counsel approved version 2.0 of the contracts.
Reports to: Frederik
Viggo from Video
Viggo Pedersen
Video and voice
Builds the demo video as code: 50 seconds of React scenes, rendered to MP4 and voiced in English and Danish.
Speaks English, Danish and, on request, Frederik.
Reports to: Frederik

Markus from Marketing
Markus Pedersen
Marketing
Will draft LinkedIn posts for Frederik to approve. Nothing is posted without that approval.
Not hired yet. Already knows not to use exclamation marks.

Hjalte the Helper
Hjalte Pedersen
Support
Will answer customers and file what needs fixing as a ticket, in Slack.
Until he starts, [email protected] reaches a person.
Danish hjælpe, to help.

Finn from Finance
Finn Pedersen
Bookkeeping
Will keep the books in Dinero once the company is registered.
Nothing to book yet: no customer is charged today.
Reports to: Frederik
Every Pedersen asks before it acts.
Or acts under a standing rule Frederik wrote down first. Code waits in a draft for review and a green check; migrations, legal texts and money wait for him. Your agents get the same arrangement: they ask, a person you choose decides, and the audit log keeps the record.
