Why Kraka

AI-fy users that are at the beginning of AI adaption curve.

Most AI companies chase the same white-collar use cases. At our customers, we're the first AI solution on the shop floor.

Contribute to strengthening Europe's Industrial backbone.

Our customers are leading manufacturers in electrical engineering, food and beverage, pharma and more.

Enjoy towns like Belm or Wagenfeld, as much as Berlin or Munich.

Our customers are based in the industrial hubs of Lower Saxony, Baden-Württemberg and beyond.

Where we work

We go where the work is.

Some days that's a customer's plant, in a hard hat. Other days it's a phone booth or a quiet desk at our office in Berlin.

How we work

Always thinking one step ahead: we try out what could solve our customers' problems.

AI is your superpower.

Be curious and find ways to multiply yourself.

Own outcomes.

We care about the impact you have. From day one, you are fully responsible for driving your outcomes.

Be opinionated.

In the age of AI, knowledge is being democratised. Have an opinion and be ready to back it up.

Sell first, build later.

We validate before we invest heavily. Once something is validated, we double down.

Office dog

That's Fourty.

She's always happy to help, usually from somewhere near your feet. Most of the time she dozes off to the sound of keyboards.

The team

A small team that fits in one lift.

That's the whole Berlin team, just about.

Birthdays

On your birthday, the donuts are on us.

Here's Johannes, opening his box.

Probably not for you if…

  • …you want to work fully remote.

  • …safety shoes and a hard hat sound like a bad day.

  • …you want a job description that still fits in a year.

  • …you need a finished process before you can start.

  • …“that's not my job” is something you say.
