About us

​Founded in 2018 in the beautiful bicycle city of Münster, we emerged as kaitos from the Westfälische Wilhelms-University Münster. With the winning of an EXIST funding, the company founding as a GmbH and the move to our own office, the right starting signal was given in 2019. Meanwhile we are a team of 6 physicists with a strong interest in complex problems and current research in the field of machine learning.

​

At kaitos, we believe that it's not an AI or a human, but an elegant team of both that will be the workforce of the future - more productive, reliable and focused on the important tasks ahead, AI will relieve humans of tedious tasks and assist them when things get complex and messy. 

For machines to integrate seamlessly into the human work environment, they need to develop a human-like understanding of their surroundings. To make this possible, we at kaitos develop state-of-the-art computer vision models based on Deep Learning to provide customized solutions ranging from text recognition to medical recognition approaches to quality control in production.

​

At kaitos, we build real AI applications - for us, that means no buzzwords, no "somewhere deep inside our code there may be an AI use case hidden, but we call it an AI product anyway" - product. It means collecting data, reading scientific literature, developing our own AI architectures, setting up an appropriate training algorithm, running the training on our GPUs, moving the model to production, and throughout this journey, putting our customers' needs at the center of all our steps on the way to the final product.

​

This is tedious, complex and time-consuming, but it has an important advantage: This way, our developments have the full power of real AI - and exactly according to our customers' needs.
