Milestones, Innovation, and a Look Ahead

December is traditionally a time for reflection. For Tucan.ai, 2025 was a defining milestone: we successfully completed a management buyout, achieved profitability for the first time, and significantly expanded our portfolio—always with a steadfast focus on GDPR-compliant processing of sensitive data.

We started Tucan over five years ago with a mission to automate the manual tasks nobody wants to do—securely, in compliance with data privacy laws, and without dependence on US providers within the DACH region. What began as a “crazy idea” by three Austrians (who were tired of Amazon Alexa failing to understand their dialects) has grown into a stable company serving over 70 clients across business, public administration, and politics. We are incredibly proud of what has emerged despite economic crises, geopolitical shifts, and an AI revolution.

For this, we want to start by saying thank you—for the collaboration, the trust, and occasionally, a little bit of patience. I am also particularly excited to share a glimpse of what we’ve been working on over the last few months.

We look forward to taking these next steps together with you.
