Oraios AI
Oraios AI delivers genuine value to customers through deep AI expertise and operational efficiency, focusing on creating elegant solutions to complex problems. The company provides AI solution development, consulting, use case identification workshops, and AI trainings.
Founding Story
Oraios AI — derived from the Greek word for 'beautiful' — was founded in 2024 by friends and long-time collaborators Dominik Jain and Michael Panchenko. Their goal was to launch an independent venture dedicated to delivering genuine value to customers through deep AI expertise and operational efficiency. With decades of collective in-house experience across demanding projects, industries, and domains, they focus on building the right systems by combining engineering rigor with efficiency.
