What we do.

Knowledge Engineering

We translate legal expertise into a structured, machine-readable form. Laws, rulings, templates and the experience of seasoned advisory experts become data schemas, rules and ontologies. The foundation for AI that invents nothing.

What we stand for.

01

Knowledge stays in-house.

We build systems in which our customers' experiential knowledge grows, not tools that siphon it off. Building domain knowledge is the prerequisite, not the side effect.

02

AI within guardrails.

We do not sell generic AI with a free prompt. We build AI that works on defined topics, on structured data and with source evidence. Hallucination rate practically zero.

03

Humans decide.

Every AI action in our systems is reviewed and approved by the adviser. The degree of autonomy is configurable per organisation, but never at the expense of ultimate responsibility.

Careers at CODIAC

Work on the platform on which legal knowledge grows.

We are looking for people who think clearly in complex systems: computational linguistics, software architecture and knowledge engineering. Based in Hamburg, flat hierarchies, a lot of responsibility.
