About Data Concept Studio

Data Concept Studio is the trading name of Data Concept Studio Michał Szarek, a software company registered in Poland (Kraków), founded in 2025.

We are a product company — we build, own, and operate our own AI software, not client projects — running everything on Google Cloud. We currently ship two products: Briefcaster and MATHS.

Building AI systems at the intersection of finance, machine learning, and engineering.

Background

I have spent the past decade working across financial services, software engineering, and AI — first as a practitioner inside institutions, then building tooling for them. That dual perspective shapes everything about how Data Concept Studio is designed: systems that are rigorous enough for real money, but fast enough for a startup.

On the finance side, I have worked across trading operations, risk frameworks, and capital markets technology — understanding not just how markets work, but how decisions are made under uncertainty and time pressure.

On the engineering side, I have designed and delivered full-stack systems end-to-end — from data pipelines and APIs to cloud infrastructure and production deployments. I have led teams, shipped products, and maintained systems that cannot afford downtime.

The convergence of large language models with real-time data is the most significant opportunity I have seen in my career. Data Concept Studio is my vehicle for building products on that frontier — AI that does real, daily work for the person using it.

Expertise

Financial markets

Trading operations, risk management, capital markets technology, and quantitative analysis across multiple asset classes.

AI & machine learning

Multi-agent systems, LLM integration, retrieval-augmented generation, ensemble modelling, and production ML pipelines.

Full-stack engineering

Cloud-native architecture, APIs, data pipelines, and infrastructure for our own products — designed, built, and run in-house.

Technical leadership

Leading engineering teams, defining technical strategy, and delivering complex projects from concept to production.

Mission

Why this studio exists

The best AI capabilities have historically gone to those with the most infrastructure: institutional trading desks with quant teams, media companies with editorial staff. Individuals get generic products built for everyone — which means built for no one in particular.

Data Concept Studio builds AI that works for one specific person at a time. Briefcaster reads your sources and produces a briefing that exists for a single listener: you. MATHS brings institutional-grade trading decision support — systematic, auditable, risk-aware — to individual traders and smaller funds.

Both share the same engineering DNA: production systems with real accountability, human oversight where it matters, and infrastructure rigorous enough to trust with your money or your attention.
