Who we are
One Team. One Mission.
Engineering, machine learning, computational linguistics and business, between Berlin and Darmstadt. This did not begin as a market opportunity. It began with our own lives: two of us kept noticing that the ordinary traces we leave behind said something about how we were doing that we could not see at the time. That is where the idea came from, and it is why privacy was never a feature decision here.

Who owns what
Small team, clear edges.
Four people cannot afford ambiguity about who decides. Each function has one owner, and the first hire after our first raise is a growth role, because none of us has run consumer app growth at scale, and pretending otherwise would be the expensive kind of optimism.
Technology & architecture
Tim Altendorf
On-device pipeline, encryption, enclave processing, deployment, technical hiring.
Research, ML & Ethics
Sina Khudida
Relevance and insight models, on-device inference, user research, ethical architecture, and the partnerships and networks around the project.
Process & language
Jupp Krüger
Delivery process, language analysis, documentation infrastructure.
Business & regulatory
Max Fleig
Strategy, funding, claims discipline, compliance and quality groundwork.
Where we sit
Anchored at two universities.
01
Universities
TU Darmstadt and Humboldt University Berlin, with a faculty mentor anchoring the science base. Hesse anchors our funding application; Berlin gives us the deeper pool of consumer product talent.
02
Networks
2hearts, the German tech community for people with immigration backgrounds; regional startup networks; university entrepreneurship support. We are also recruiting a growth advisor with consumer app experience.
03
Recognition
Third place in the hessian.ai open idea competition, and an EXIST Women scholarship. Useful, and a long way from finished.
Talk to us
We answer our own email.
Whether you want to test an early build, advise us on growth, or ask an uncomfortable question about the architecture. All of it is welcome.
