About Us
Built by a team that uses AI every day.
We’re Team Pia, a small product team inside neo42 GmbH in Wiehl, Germany, building the AI assistant we use ourselves every day.
We’re Team Pia, a small product team inside neo42 GmbH in Wiehl, Germany, building the AI assistant we use ourselves every day.
We got tired of AI assistants that use your data as their business model — and leave you no say in it. So we built one where control stays with you: over your data, your models and your rules. Pia started as an internal tool at neo42 that we still use every day — and its Windows client is open source today. We believe the best products come from teams that use what they sell.
For over 15 years, neo42 has helped IT teams package, deploy and manage software on thousands of endpoints — for more than 1,000 customers. So Pia ships the way IT departments expect: signed installers, a self-hostable server, and an admin who stays in control.
About neo42We don't just build AI — we work alongside it. Every task starts with one question: can AI do this?
Before assigning a task to a human, we ask: can AI do this? Not to replace people, but to amplify what the team can achieve.
Every feature in Pia gets tested in our own daily workflows first. From code review to content creation, AI colleagues are part of our daily routine.
People define the vision, values, and strategy. AI handles execution, research, and scaling. Together, we move faster.
Privacy isn’t a feature — it’s a principle. Control over your data stays with you: it lives on your device, on a server you run, or on ours — which cannot read what it holds.
An open-source client, a source-available server, honest pricing, no hidden agendas.
Small team, solid footing. We ship fast because AI lets a small team do more — and because neo42 already runs the infrastructure, signs every release and answers the phone. We get to focus on the product.
