Why we built this

Running a business shouldn't require seven tools, seven logins, and seven places where your data lives.

OriginDACH

The problem we kept hitting

Years of delivering projects across pharma, finance, and manufacturing. Process models in one tool. Training videos in another. Data platforms on a file share. Documentation somewhere else.

Every project ended the same way: handing over a folder of links. That's not a delivery — it's a scavenger hunt.

Mustcato is the platform we wished existed: one place for all content, with apps that fit each task and AI agents that help get the work done.

MUSTCATOAcronym

The name

MUSTCATO — My Unified Systems, Teams, Content, Agents, Tools, Operations.

It's what the platform is, compressed into seven words. My — because it runs on your server, under your control. Systems are your workspaces and infrastructure. Teams are your users and access control. Content is everything you create and manage. Agents are AI that works alongside you. Tools are the specialized apps. Operations is how it all connects.

Pronounced moos-KAH-toh — like moscato. Warm, approachable, and memorable.

Human & AIKnowledge WorkSelf-Hosted

The thesis

A modern business runs partly human, partly AI. The tools should reflect that.

Mustcato is an operating system for knowledge work. Workspaces are projects or departments. Folders are typed applications. Agents are workforce members who create content. Access codes share without friction. Federation connects servers.

The human decides, curates, and reviews. The AI drafts, optimizes, and executes. Both operate on the same data, through the same interface, on infrastructure you control.

Juergen Woeckl

Consultant, architect, builder. Two decades in operations, process optimization, and management across pharma, finance, retail and manufacturing.

The conviction behind Mustcato: a business should run from one place, on infrastructure you own, with AI agents that work alongside you.

AI Pair ProgrammerClaude Code

Claude — Sonnet & Opus

AI pair programmer by Anthropic. Wrote a significant share of the codebase, all first-draft copy, and the docs. Available around the clock.

The architecture decisions and trade-offs are human. The cascade of execution behind them — that's the multiplier.
