Based in Graz, Austria, Leftshift One is a high-tech company specializing in artificial intelligence, founded in 2017. The founding team includes CEO Patrick Ratheiser, who has a background in business administration, computer science, and enterprise software solutions, and CTO Christian Weber, a computer scientist with extensive experience in software architecture for major international banking projects. They are joined by co-founders Michael Mair (VP Product) and Benjamin Krenn (VP Software). The firm is backed by notable investors including ARM-founder Hermann Hauser, eQventure, and the Styrian Economic Development Agency (SFG).
The company's core offering is its proprietary Artificial Intelligence Operating System (AIOS), a platform designed for hyper-automation and the development of customized AI applications. This AI-as-a-Service model provides businesses with a suite of pre-configured, resource-efficient AI solutions that can be tailored to specific needs. A key differentiator is the system's emphasis on data sovereignty and privacy, allowing clients to run the OS on-premises or in a private cloud, ensuring full control over their data. The platform's capabilities include automated text and document processing, conversational AI, knowledge management through Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and email automation. The technology is built to be leaner than some large-scale models, using transformer models with 7 to 20 billion parameters, which allows for specific fine-tuning and transparent, traceable results.
Leftshift One serves a diverse B2B client base across various sectors, including manufacturing, mechanical engineering, pharma and healthcare, banking and insurance, and energy and infrastructure. Revenue is generated through an AI-as-a-Service model, which implies a recurring revenue stream, likely subscription or licensing-based. The company offers products like MyGPT, a secure, enterprise-focused generative AI platform that provides deep insights into corporate communications and creates detailed reports. By focusing on creating a symbiotic relationship between humans and machines, Leftshift One aims to augment daily work routines and make AI technology accessible and secure for a broader range of enterprises.
