Hi, I’m Dr. Christopher Appiah-Thompson, a founder and multidisciplinary digital professional with experience spanning iOS application development, web development, communications strategy, podcast production, academic research, and mission-driven service design. I partner with education, care, and public engagement initiatives to design human-centered digital experiences that are accessible and scalable.

PeaceLens is a free iOS app on the Apple App Store that helps researchers, educators, and media teams analyse election‑related content through peace‑journalism principles. It is designed as an academic research and training tool, making it easy to review images, headlines, and posts and classify them using clear, structured criteria aligned with peace and conflict‑sensitive reporting.
Built with a modern SwiftUI codebase and cloud‑ready backend architecture, PeaceLens is lightweight, fast, and ready to integrate with data dashboards or research workflows. The app can be adapted for custom studies (e.g., elections, social movements, conflict reporting, or civic education) and supports iterative experimentation, A/B testing of prompts, and rapid UI changes.
I am looking to collaborate with designers, researchers, and media organisations who want to:
Extend PeaceLens with custom scoring rubrics, categories, or languages for their projects
Integrate the app into broader research pipelines (APIs, dashboards, exports)
White‑label or co‑brand the experience for training, workshops, or community education
If you need an experienced full‑stack founder/engineer who can handle end‑to‑end delivery (iOS, backend, analytics, and cloud infra) and understand both academic and industry requirements, I can help. Let’s use PeaceLens as a starting point to build evidence‑based, ethical, and peace‑promoting media tools for your organisation.
You can download and test the live app here: “PeaceLens” on the Apple App Store.
