Useful software.
Thoughtful consulting.

I’m a software engineer and statistician, and I run JEStats with my partner. We help businesses with data, websites, design, and practical AI, and build open tools for the developers behind them.

Based in Lake Stevens, Washington. Working with businesses near and far.

J&E Consulting · JEStats

Bring us the problem.
We’ll help you build the solution.

JEStats is the studio my partner and I run from Lake Stevens. We bring statistics, software engineering, design, and marketing together to make useful things for real businesses.

From a clearer picture of your sales to a website you can depend on, you work directly with the people doing the work.

Creator

Verity

Forensic surface comparison as calibrated evidence: transparent likelihood ratios — not black-box 'matches' — from 3-D scans of bullets, cartridge cases, and toolmarks.

An open forensic-comparison engine that reports calibrated evidentiary strength instead of hiding uncertainty behind a binary match.
