Niko Karajannis
Last position:
Co-founder & AI Engineer at KAIKI GmbH
End-to-end responsibility for all products - concept, architecture, development, and production operation as the sole developer; in addition, customer meetings, proposals, and marketing.
Underwriting Copilot - AI assistant for industrial insurance (in production at customer sites)
- Supports underwriters in analyzing industrial insurance submissions - in production use at an industrial insurer.
- Framework-independent RAG architecture with Hybrid Search (BM25 + pgvector) across large, mixed document sets.
- Two-stage evaluation and observability pipeline (code assertions + LLM-as-Judge) that makes answer quality, retrieval accuracy, and citation integrity measurable in a regression-safe way.
Kaiki Menu Analyzer - Data intelligence platform (in production at customer sites)
- Automatically captures and analyzes menu data from around 25,000 German restaurants.
- Scalable 7-container architecture (FastAPI, partitioned PostgreSQL, Redis/RQ) with LLM-supported extraction of structured data from PDF, HTML, and images.
- Full CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), production cloud deployment, interactive dashboards (Dash).
Kaiki GEO Atlas - GEO platform (in production at customer sites)
- Measures brand visibility across five AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Grok, Claude), each augmented with web search, orchestrated as a DAG workflow pipeline (Dispatcher → Sub-workflows → Scoring → Report) with fail isolation.
- 6-container deployment (FastAPI, Celery, Redis, PostgreSQL); LLM cost estimation, PDF audit report, rule-based cross-signal insights (no extra LLM cost).
Data Pipeline & Analytics Platform - competitive analysis in the automotive aftermarket
- Automated data pipeline with gap analysis algorithms and role-based access control; 230+ tests.
- Backend with FastAPI, PostgreSQL, SQLAlchemy.
Product development (actively in progress)
BankingGPT - AI assistant for complaint management in cooperative banking
- Security architecture at the core: no AI draft reaches the customer without human approval - the approval decision is in auditable code, not in the language model (monotonic: the model may escalate, never downgrade).
- Real agentic building blocks, each with its own boundary: the model chooses tools itself through an MCP server (read-only, allowlist, capped, fail-safe); sensitive cases are handed off via an open A2A protocol (JSON-RPC, Agent Card, message/send/tasks/get; client implemented by me) to a separate specialist agent (securities/law), which never lowers the review requirement (pinned by test).
- Evaluation-driven over ten analysis rounds; uncovered a security flaw through independent review and blind tests that nine automated runs had missed.
- Voice AI frontend, responding live: covered cases are answered in the conversation, sensitive ones escalate before generation; response latency < 7 s measured (local GPU STT/TTS).
Stack & production readiness: Python, pydantic-ai, FastAPI/Celery, PostgreSQL/pgvector, FastMCP, fasta2a, Docker; multi-tenant capable (physical vector isolation per tenant), PII encrypted, OWASP-LLM reviewed, 275 tests, CI/CD; vendor-portable (Ollama / EU Cloud Vertex).
After-Sales Assistant - agentic RAG/GraphRAG assistant on public OEM manuals (automotive after-sales)
- Genuinely agentic on LangGraph: ReAct agent with four tools and conversation memory - the model decides on its own whether to use the manual (RAG, Chroma), a knowledge graph (GraphRAG, Neo4j/Cypher - decodes warning lights), or a workshop/booking service.
- Human-in-the-Loop before the irreversible action: before every appointment booking, the graph pauses (interrupt) and gets the driver's explicit confirmation - the same approval-before-action discipline as in BankingGPT, in a different framework.
- Eval as CI gate: a three-part scorecard (RAGAS grounding + deterministic tool-routing accuracy + DeepEval safety: does the answer mention the warning first when there is a critical warning?) blocks the pipeline; provider-agnostic (OpenAI/Azure/Anthropic), FastAPI with token streaming.
Stack: Python, LangChain/LangGraph, Chroma, Neo4j, RAGAS/DeepEval, FastAPI, Docker.

About the technology
What GraphRAG does
GraphRAG combines graph structure with retrieval-augmented generation. It helps LLM systems answer with more context by using entities, relationships, and connected passages instead of isolated chunks. Teams use it for enterprise search, question answering, research assistants, and knowledge-heavy applications.
Core building blocks
A solid GraphRAG setup usually includes:
- document ingestion and chunking
- entity and relationship extraction
- knowledge graph construction
- retrieval, ranking, and context assembly
- prompt design and response grounding
The work often spans Microsoft GraphRAG, vector search, graph databases, and LLM orchestration tools.
Where companies use it
GraphRAG is useful when plain semantic search is not enough. It fits legal research, finance, technical documentation, support knowledge bases, and internal assistant projects with many linked concepts. In Germany, it is often brought into larger enterprise environments where domain terms, compliance language, and multilingual content need careful handling.
Why freelance specialists matter
Companies bring in freelance experts when they need a design review, a pilot, or help moving from a basic RAG stack to GraphRAG. They are also useful when teams need to connect existing data sources, fix weak retrieval, or improve answer quality without rebuilding everything.
What strong specialists deliver
Strong professionals do more than wire up tools. They define the graph schema, choose what should be extracted, check retrieval behavior, and measure whether the system really reduces hallucinations. They also know how to balance graph depth, latency, and maintainability.
Skills and ecosystem
GraphRAG work often sits next to:
- Python and LLM application code
- vector databases and graph databases
- text extraction and entity linking
- prompt and evaluation workflows
- cloud deployment and observability
The best experts understand both data modeling and language model behavior, which is what makes the system reliable in production.
Frequently asked questions
Everything clients usually want to know about GraphRAG, in one place.
GraphRAG is used when teams need language models to answer from connected knowledge, not just from isolated text chunks. It is common in enterprise search, research assistants, and support systems where entities and relationships matter. The graph helps the model follow the structure of the domain.
GraphRAG adds graph structure to the retrieval flow, while standard RAG usually works with chunk embeddings alone. That makes it better for questions that depend on relationships, hierarchy, or multi-hop reasoning. It is not always the right choice, but it can produce more grounded answers for complex domains.
Microsoft GraphRAG is worth considering when you want a known implementation pattern for graph-enhanced retrieval and your data has many linked concepts. It fits well for teams already working in the Microsoft ecosystem, but the main question is still the data shape and the use case. A freelancer can help decide whether the approach is justified.
A strong GraphRAG specialist usually knows Python, retrieval pipelines, vector search, graph modeling, and LLM evaluation. Experience with knowledge graphs, entity extraction, and prompt design is also important. In real projects, data quality and system design matter as much as model choice.
A small proof of concept can often start with one experienced GraphRAG professional. A production rollout usually needs someone who can handle data modeling, retrieval tuning, and evaluation together. If the project touches multiple systems or business domains, broader experience becomes important quickly.
Yes, most GraphRAG work can be done remotely from Germany because it is mainly design, data, and software work. On-site collaboration can still help when teams need access to sensitive data, stakeholder workshops, or faster alignment on domain terms. Many projects use a mix of both.
Look for a GraphRAG specialist who can explain retrieval design, graph construction, and evaluation in plain language. Good signs include clear trade-offs, realistic scope, and examples of improving answer grounding rather than only building a demo. Ask how they test retrieval quality and handle bad source data.
The biggest mistakes with GraphRAG are weak entity extraction, vague graph design, and no evaluation plan. Teams also overbuild the graph before proving that the use case needs it. A good freelancer will start with the retrieval problem first and keep the system focused.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used GraphRAG in their recent projects is 96 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 765 € based on an 8-hour working day.
