Peter Theill

Commanigy

My name is Peter Theill, a Copenhagen-based software engineer and entrepreneur. I’m a co-founder of Zublime, Outbound & Familio but also do indie-hacking at Commanigy. I started playing around with programming back in 1987 on a good old Commodore 64 and released my first couple of shareware products on Windows around 1994.
