Built by Dataotter, used every day

Two products of our own, built to the same standard as our client work: one for companies that need their knowledge answered with proof, one for anyone with a Mac and a TV.

Meistra: Your knowledge, mastered.
Web app

Meistra

Your knowledge, mastered.

Meistra reads every file your company has, writes down what it learned with the page it came from, and trains an assistant that must pass a test on your files before it answers anyone.

Mac Screencast: Your Mac screen, on any screen in the house.
Mac app · open source

Mac Screencast

Your Mac screen, on any screen in the house.

Broadcast your Mac screen, with system audio, to any browser on your Wi-Fi: laptops, phones, or a Fire TV. Free, open source, nothing to install on the viewing device.

The people behind Dataotter

Hamiz Ahmed founded Dataotter in Nuremberg in 2025. His work combines AI engineering with writing about agentic fine-tuning and the practical challenges of deploying language models.

We work in small teams and short iterations, with the engineers involved in both planning and implementation. Documentation and handover are part of the delivery.

Alongside client projects, we develop Meistra and the open-source Mac Screencast app. Building and maintaining our own software keeps us close to the day-to-day work of running a product.

German and English

Workshops and project documentation in either language.

Remote collaboration

Based in Nuremberg, with on-site workshops where they help the project.

From Mittelstand to enterprise

Experience working with the constraints of existing company systems.

Why pilots stall, and how we ship

Most AI projects prove that the model works, then stop. We build for the part after the demo.

01

Deployment is the bottleneck, not the model

Today's models are capable enough. What fails is integration, permissions, evaluation and ownership. We plan those from day one.

02

Out of pilot purgatory

Before development, we agree what the system must do, how to test it and who approves release. The pilot provides evidence for a go, revise or stop decision.

03

Auditable by design

Every answer links to its source, every action leaves a trace. In legal, HR and compliance that is the difference between a tool people use and one they switch off.

04

Decision support, not replacement

The systems we build draft, retrieve and recommend. People keep the decision, and the assistant earns trust topic by topic.
