PostgreSQL Experts in Munich

AI telephone assistant platform

Claude Code, Google AI Studio, Python, LLM / Voice-AI, PostgreSQL

• Conception and hands-on development of an AI-supported telephone assistant platform (voice AI / LLM) – from idea and architecture to MVP/product.
• Built agentic workflows and full automations with Claude Code and Google AI Studio.
• Also delivered AI-supported work in client engagements: used Claude Code for governance documentation, requirement drafts, and automations.

• A recurring problem in my own AI-supported projects: requirements analysis, use cases, and architecture decisions can be created quickly with AI support, but they remain hard to trace and scattered across Markdown files – knowledge is lost as soon as it is no longer in the context window. arknet turns requirements engineering and architecture knowledge into structured, verifiable data instead of plain text: requirements, use cases, and architecture decisions as a continuously linked knowledge graph, traceable from the requirement to the architecture decision – queryable for both people and AI agents alike. Technically based on RDF/OWL and its own MCP server.

• Result: MCP daemon running, Docker image automatically published on GHCR, nine hexagonal modules, eleven ADRs (including an open-core licensing model). Requirements engineering and ubiquitous language hexagon active. Publicly available since 07/2026 as a Community Edition under Apache-2.0 (github.com/kogn-io/arknet), together with the Claude Code plugin and the GHCR image; open-core model.
