• Supports underwriters in analyzing industrial insurance submissions – in production at an industrial insurer.
• Framework-independent RAG architecture with Hybrid Search (BM25 + pgvector) across large, heterogeneous document collections.
• 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 with a customer)

• Automatically collects and analyzes food 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.
• Complete CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), production cloud deployment, interactive dashboards (Dash).

Kaiki GEO Atlas – GEO platform (in production with a customer)

• 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 additional LLM effort).

Product development (actively in development)

BankingGPT – AI assistant for complaint management in cooperative banking

• Security architecture at its core: no AI draft reaches the customer without human approval – the approval decision is stored in auditable code, not in the language model (monotonic: the model may increase the level, but never lower it).
• Genuine agentic components, each with its own boundaries: the model selects tools itself through an MCP server (read-only, allowlisted, capped, fail-safe); sensitive cases are sent via the open A2A protocol (JSON-RPC, Agent Card, message/send/tasks/get; client implemented independently) to a standalone specialist agent (securities/law), which never lowers the review requirement (pinned by tests).
• Evaluation-driven across ten analysis rounds; an independent review and blind tests uncovered a security defect that nine automated runs had missed.
• Voice AI frontend, responding live: covered cases are answered during the conversation, while sensitive cases are escalated before generation; measured response latency < 7 s (local GPU STT/TTS).

Stack & production readiness: Python, pydantic-ai, FastAPI/Celery, PostgreSQL/pgvector, FastMCP, fasta2a, Docker; multi-tenant (physical vector isolation per tenant), encrypted PII, OWASP-LLM-reviewed, 275 tests, CI/CD; provider-portable (Ollama / EU-Cloud-Vertex).

After-Sales Assistant – agentic RAG/GraphRAG assistant based on public OEM manuals (automotive after-sales)

• Genuinely agentic with LangGraph: ReAct agent with four tools and conversation memory – the model decides itself whether to use the manual (RAG, Chroma), a knowledge graph (GraphRAG, Neo4j/Cypher – decoding warning lights), or a workshop/booking service.
• Human-in-the-loop before the irreversible action: before every appointment booking, the graph pauses (interrupt) and obtains the driver's explicit confirmation – the same approval-before-action discipline as in BankingGPT, in a different framework.
• Eval as a CI gate: three-part scorecard (RAGAS grounding + deterministic tool-routing accuracy + DeepEval safety: does the answer mention the warning first in the case of 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.
