AI Innovation and Implementation
Founder of GDPRChat.eu — European AI Chatbot Platform (2025-Present)
In 2025, Lyneborg founded FRITS AI APS (Copenhagen) and built GDPRChat.eu, a general-purpose AI chatbot platform designed as a European alternative to ChatGPT. The platform runs entirely on EU infrastructure: Mistral AI (Paris) provides the large language model, Black Forest Labs (Freiburg) provides image generation via FLUX, and Hetzner (Germany) hosts the application and database. No data leaves the European Union. GDPRChat.eu launched during a period of intensified European efforts toward digital sovereignty. In February 2025, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced the InvestAI initiative at the AI Action Summit in Paris, aiming to mobilize EUR 200 billion for AI development across Europe. France and Germany convened a Summit on European Digital Sovereignty in November 2025, and all 27 EU member states signed a declaration on reducing strategic dependencies on non-EU technology. The platform offers over 20 integrated tools including web search and browsing, Python code execution (via WebAssembly), document creation (PDF, DOCX, XLSX), Mermaid diagrams, Gantt charts, interactive maps, data visualization, and EU-hosted image generation. A distinctive feature is the persona system: users can paste any text sample, and the AI analyzes its style, tone, and rhythm to create a reusable writing voice that can be applied to future conversations. The platform includes a curated EU regulatory knowledge base with indexed content covering the GDPR, the EU AI Act, NIS2, DORA, CSRD, the ePrivacy Directive, and PSD2, supported by a vector search system (pgvector) and monthly automated updates via web crawling. Additional features include enterprise SSO via Microsoft Entra ID, multi-tenant architecture with per-user metering, built-in PII detection, Stripe billing integration, and a blue-green deployment pipeline. Lyneborg designed the architecture, wrote the code, and deployed the platform as sole technical developer. The company is headquartered at Nyhavn 38, Copenhagen.
