the founders' story
Octomind was born from Marc Mengler and Daniel Rödler's shared frustration with slow, manual QA. Marc had been building ML-powered web apps since 2015, and Daniel had run GoTo Meeting's massively scaled web client. They met at Marc's startup, Understand.ai, where testing bottlenecks kept draining time and money.
When genAI breakthroughs hit in early 2023, the solution clicked: combine Daniel's product vision with Marc's ML chops to finally automate the painful parts of end-to-end testing. Octomind is the result.
