About

Last updated: 16 October 2026

Gewerkton is built by Thorsten Meyer in Iffeldorf, Bavaria — out of a simple observation: the most important information on a construction site is spoken, and then it evaporates into hastily typed minutes.

Gewerkton keeps the spoken word: site managers dictate what they see and decide, Gewerkton transcribes it on its own server without an external speech service, recognises which trade each item belongs to, and turns approved items into trackable tasks — with the original audio one click away while it is kept. Recording whole site meetings is offered only to selected companies that we enable individually, and only with the consent of everyone present.

The product follows three principles: the site manager stays in control (nothing becomes a task without approval), evidence beats memory (every task links to its original statement), and data stays under control (speech is transcribed on Gewerkton's own server in Germany or on-premises; in the cloud beta, AI runs on NVIDIA in the USA by default and receives personal data only with consent, with names from meetings replaced first, or runs on the organisation's own key — see the privacy policy).

Gewerkton is in beta in 2026 and not yet in use at a customer; general availability is planned for 2027, which is a plan and not a promise.

Gewerkton is part of Thorsten Meyer AI.
