Steinkauz — Little Owl

About Steinkauz

Why we exist, and why the owl.

Why we exist

AI is increasingly becoming part of the infrastructure. A resource used by more and more individuals and businesses, yet one that very few can fully understand or control. Steinkauz wants to change that. We bring together AI models from all the well-known providers in one place, alongside the transparency, control, security and privacy that are deeply embedded in the product and can be configured by you to suit your requirements.

We see Steinkauz not so much as a single app, but rather as a foundation on which you can build. A reliable, neutral platform that allows you to grow, whatever form that work may take. Our aim is to keep this foundation transparent, trustworthy and free from lock-in effects, so that the important decisions remain in your hands rather than with a single provider. However Steinkauz grows, the purpose remains the same: more clarity, more freedom and more control over your data in your hands.

Why the owl

The little owl (Athene noctua) is a small owl that was already regarded in ancient Greece as the emblem of the goddess Athena and a symbol of wisdom. This idea underpins the name, the logo and the product itself: bringing clarity to a field that is all too often opaque. To equip you with a wide range of models, the right tools and configuration options, so that you can make informed decisions. To provide a foundation on which you can build.
