Karl-gustav Kallasmaa is a founder and AI infrastructure specialist with eight years of experience building search and semantic systems that scale. He founded Attensira to solve the emerging problem of visibility as answers migrate from traditional search to LLMs, focusing on Generative Engine Optimisation to help brands appear in AI-generated responses. His background spans hands-on ML infra and product work—from hacking a personal search engine to leading engineering at startups and shipping semantic tools used in production. A pragmatic builder, he prioritises quiet, traction-focused tooling and publishes learnings through building-in-public. Based in London with an MSc in Computer Science and exposure to generative AI at Oxford, he blends academic grounding with startup grit and a rare focus on distribution for the LLM era.
