Built by people who've actually done the work
Our mission is to Create a Greener, More sustainable Future
Team 14 was founded in May 2024 by Bardo Schütz and Christian Rockrohr, two people who spent five years building and running automation platforms together before deciding to do it their own way.
The name comes from leet speak: "Intelligent Automation" written in code becomes "1n73ll1g3n7 4u70m4710n" — the 1 and the 4 stay with us. It's a small nod to the fact that we genuinely speak the language of technology.
Between them, Bardo and Christian bring over 25 years of hands-on experience, from building digital backbones for European customs operations to developing deep technical expertise on the Lobster Data Platform. They've seen what goes wrong in large automation projects. They've been the people cleaning up the mess. Now they do it right from the start.
The team is small on purpose. Small means direct contact, short feedback loops and no time wasted in status meetings about status meetings.
