About

LLM Works

An AI engineering studio in Knoxville, Tennessee, founded in March 2026, that builds production agents on its own open-source substrate.

Founded by Tilo Ochotta, with a PhD in computer science covering signal processing, compression, and 3D graphics, and a multi-decade systems engineering background spanning electronic trading and blockchain.

How we work

You bring the workflow and your pipeline, and we build the agent on our open-source substrate, with your team, including the integration into your production system. The deployed code stays yours, and we keep improving the loop as the research moves.

Why us

  • Senior team. The architect works on your project directly.
  • Honest about fit. If an agent won't help yet, we say so upfront.
  • Open substrate, closed agent. Our platform is open source, while your agent code stays yours and remains closed.
