🚀 **AI at Superhuman**: **Better Models or Better MCPs?**
[Viktor Zamarueiv](https://www.linkedin.com/in/viktor-zamaruiev-99a2bb25/), Director of Engineering at Superhuman
Generic wrappers let you easily wrap any APIs as MCP tools accessible by Claude and other MCP clients. However, existing APIs might be challenging for LLMs, especially for cost-efficient models. This talk explores shifting complexity out of probabilistic models into deterministic interfaces through MCP in order to build reliable AI systems.
🚀 **How to implement progressive tool/MCP calling**
[Christophe Pasquier](https://www.linkedin.com/in/christophepasquier/), CEO at Slite
Our journey on how we implemented a progressive tool calling to open to MCPs, solving this through disambiguation layers and on-demand tool loading, letting agents discover only the tools they need, when they need them.
🚀 **Designing MCP Apps with Skybridge**
[Fredéric Barthelet](https://www.linkedin.com/in/frederic-barthelet/), Co-founder and CTO at Alpic
Lessons learned from building dozens of ChatGPT Apps and an introduction to Skybridge, an open-source framework for MCP Apps

March Meetup: Audio in the Terminal and text prompts to music
On the 3rd March we will host the next iteration of our monthly Audio Developer Meetup. The long talk will be by Christian Grothe on building audio applications for the terminal in rust. The short talk will be by
Maksymilian Padalak on how to convert text prompts into plug-ins. See below!
As always, there will be a chance to network over drinks and pizza. Anyone interested in Audio development is welcome!
Doors open at 18:00, talks start at 18:15.
Please note: Attendance is **strictly limited** to people who have RSVP'd
Talk details:
**Building Audio Applications with a TUI in Rust** \- Christian Grothe
In this talk, we will explore the possibilities of building musical instruments with a terminal user interface using Rust and Ratatui. We will look at both the challenges and advantages of this approach, illustrated with practical examples and sound demonstrations.
**Christian Grothe** is a programmer and musician based in Potsdam. During his music studies, he became increasingly interested in creating improvised electronic music using his own tools. Starting with MAX/MSP, exploring the Axoloti board, experimenting with Arduino and Teensy, and eventually building an analog modular synthesizer from scratch, his technical abilities evolved through time and hands-on experience. Primarily focused on building tools for live sampling, Christian settled on a stack where he uses Rust to create custom sampler instruments running in the terminal, alongside SuperCollider patches—literally making music with tmux.
**pluginmaker.ai - How We Turn Text Prompts into Working VST/AU Plugins -** Maksymilian Padalak
pluginmaker.ai is the first ever browser-based, no-code generator for VST and AU audio plugins. Users describe an effect or instrument in plain language - "plate reverb with decay and damping controls" - and within minutes receive a plugin they can load in almost any DAW. In this talk they'll demo the full flow from prompt to plugin, walk through how the generation pipeline works at a high level, and share what they've learned building an AI system that writes real-time audio code.
Maksymilian Padalak is an ex-Nord Security (NordVPN) developer, guitarist, music producer, former professional standup comedian, and co-founder of pluginmaker.ai - an AI-powered platform that generates audio plugins from natural language descriptions. He co-founded the project with his best friend and ex high school bandmate Dominik Bilski, an ex-FedEx and ex-Pearson developer, bassist, and AI enthusiast. Both quit their jobs to build pluginmaker.ai full-time.
PBerg engineers - monthly meetup
**This is 100% non-profit. The 15€ sign up fee for everyone is only to minimize last-minute cancellations. The total sum goes to a bar-tap that everyone can use to order drinks until the amount is used up. ‼️NO REFUNDS‼️**
**‼️Please don't just show up without RSVPing here and paying the 15€. We have a separate room that has limited capacity and a specific drinks agreement with the bar - so splitting up the bill won't become a mess.‼️**
**Small update on how your money get's used from May 2024 onwards:** As of this month, meetup.com has started charging me 34€ instead of 16€ per month. I've decided to distribute this fee evenly among all us participants every month. Example: In the last 12 meetups, the average number of attendees was 17. With 17 attendees I would effectively collect 230€ (after fees). I would now substract 34€ leaving us with 196€ that go to the bar. 15% get's tipped to the wait staff, in this case 30€, leaving us with 166€ effectively to order drinks. Hope everyone is cool with this system. :)

Quality Engineering meetup #11
**PLEASE NOTE THE ADDRESS CHANGE! We're now at [w3hub.berlin](https://w3hub.berlin)**
*[Qase](https://qase.io) is presenting the **eleventh** Meetup on Quality Engineering in Berlin.*
*This time, we’re bringing you three deep-dive talks — all designed to challenge the way you think about quality, testing, and collaboration.*
*As always, expect great conversations, snacks, and drinks. See you there!*
**AGENDA**
**1\. Mitesh Patel\, Technical Consultant \- Scientific Instruments @ Altum Solutions: *Food QA: Testing Tasting***
On this fine evening, we shall enjoy some food … and also learn why we enjoy it. Because tasting is really a form of testing for our brains — wetware QA in essence.
But how do we reformulate this wetware testing into those familiar realms of software and hardware testing? It is not as simple as exchanging taste buds for test suites and bites for bytes. Just ask Big Food which spends billions on this same question: How can computers do taste tests like humans?
Guided by the example of an ML/AI-powered scientific instrument for chemical analyses, namely, a spectrometer, this session addresses this question and explores the broader topic of QA in the food industry. Discover how food companies scale testing across scientific software, device hardware, and food/human wetware. So grab a spoon for this insider scoop on QA for food.
**2\. Vitaly Sharovatov\, developer advocate @ Qase: *QA Myths Busting: A Practical Guide to Higher Quality***
Have you ever felt the urge to increase the amount of testing or hire more testers, thinking it would improve product quality? As a tester, have you ever been held “accountable” for quality or pressed for time, leaving you feeling helpless? Or perhaps you’ve been asked to justify quality assurance initiatives with numbers?
Our industry is filled with myths: from “quality can be measured” to “more testing means higher quality” and from “QA slows down work” to “testers are responsible for quality”. In this talk, I will present the myths I once believed, explain the dangers they pose to both teams and products, and demonstrate how they should be debunked and overcome.
**3\. Asya Isakova\, Co\-Founder @ TECH_Connect: 𝘌𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵\, 𝘒𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘑𝘰𝘣**
The job market is wild: it’s hard to get hired, and sometimes even harder to stay hired. In a new role (or a new team), one of the fastest ways to reduce uncertainty and accelerate collaboration is to build trust quickly.
But how do colleagues and managers decide you’re trustworthy? It’s rarely just about closing Jira tickets or moving cards on a Kanban board. People assess trust through patterns of behavior: what you do, how consistently you do it, and how do you act towards others.
In this talk, you’ll learn an evidence-based approach to building trust at work using three practical components: integrity, reliability, and benevolence. We’ll unpack what shapes people’s trust judgments (including context, risk, and prior experiences) and translate research into concrete behaviors you can apply immediately: especially in multicultural and cross-functional teams.
Music Producers of Berlin Social Meetup
**NOTE: We have tentatively planned to meet at Banja Luka -- either indoor or outdoor depending on the weather -- but this might change and would be updated here.**
Join us for another friendly Music Producers Meetup! This event is open to producers of all genres, skill levels, and backgrounds. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting out, you’ll find a welcoming space to connect, share ideas, and get inspired.
Bring your latest projects, network with like-minded creatives, and enjoy casual conversation over drinks and snacks. There’s no set agenda—just a relaxed atmosphere where everyone can mingle, exchange tips, and support each other’s musical journeys.
Feel free to bring your music to share, and don’t hesitate to invite friends or collaborators. All genders, ages, and DAWs are welcome. Let’s keep building Berlin’s vibrant producer community together!
We look forward to seeing you there!

12MIN.ME | BERLIN | STARTUP #1.1 🚀
** ATTENTION: we moved to luma. please RVSP [HERE](https://luma.com/12min.me_Berlin)**
# [12min.me](https://12min.me/) START UP is a brand new morning format for bold ideas and fresh perspectives
Berlin Startup Community, we’re launching something new.
Together with betahaus, we’re bringing the [12min.me](http://12min.me/) spirit into the morning.
[12min.me](http://12min.me/) STARTUP is a three-part breakfast series, embedded in the well-known betabreakfast format.
Instead of three speakers in one evening, we do things differently.
One morning. One speaker. One focused impulse.
12 minutes. One voice. Zero fluff.
Join us for the first edition of [12min.me](http://12min.me/) STARTUP, a compact morning session for founders, operators, creatives and everyone building things that matter.
**✔️ What to expect**
* One inspiring startup-related talk
* 12 minutes of sharp insight
* Curated exchange over breakfast
* The familiar [12min.me](http://12min.me/) energy, just earlier in the day#
**The formula stays the same**
* 12 minutes talk
* 12 minutes of Q&A
* 12 minutes of networking
The familiar [12min.me](http://12min.me/) energy, just earlier in the day
** Our speakers**
**Speaker 1 @March 5**
**[Jonathan Hegel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-beisiegel) from [FW Systems](https://www.linkedin.com/company/frachtwerk/)**
Jonathan is the CEO of FW Systems, a specialized system house for open source solutions and IT services with a fixed-price model. After years in traditional IT, where he regularly had to work night shifts due to emergencies, he decided to do things better—for customers and for IT professionals. Today, he help SMEs transform their IT from a constant work in progress to a reliable infrastructure they can depend on.
**Jonathan\`s talk: "How we are completely rethinking system administration as a service for your company"**
Companies cannot possibly do everything themselves. So things like accounting, logistics, and IT are outsourced to external service providers. In the IT sector, system houses have been doing very well for themselves in recent decades! Every little thing is charged for, and if there are any errors, the customer is expected to open a ticket. We are rethinking this! We are applying the “as-a-service” concept from Airbnb, Uber, and Everstox to system administration and taking responsibility. Jonathan will show how this works in his talk.
**Speaker 2 @March 12**
**[Anne Biedermann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anne-biedermann/), independent wealth partner for women**
Anne has extensive experience across venture capital, single-family-office & HNWI investing, and early-stage operations. She works with investors who are building, inheriting, or stewarding wealth on how to allocate capital with clarity — particularly where venture capital intersects with long-term wealth strategy. Anne also invests personally, giving her a practitioner’s perspective on capital allocation decisions.
**Anna\`s talk: "Not All Capital Is the Same: Decoding Investor Behavior"**
Founders often assume all investors evaluate risk, timelines, and returns the same way and that assumption is costly. This session breaks down how funds, family offices, and individual investors actually make decisions, where founder–investor misalignment typically begins, and how founders can better position themselves for the right kind of capital, not just any capital.
**Speaker 3 @March 19**
**[Immo Ait Stapelfeld](https://www.linkedin.com/in/immoaitstapelfeld/), Co-Founder & CEO at [913.ai](https://913.ai)**
**"From Legal Complexity to Practical AI. How We Help Regulated Industries Use AI Without Losing Control"**
This presentation tells the story of Immo’s transition from a trained lawyer working in mass proceedings to an entrepreneur building AI products for regulated industries. His legal background, combined with hands-on experience as a founder, shaped a pragmatic view on AI. not as a disruptive replacement, but as a controlled and compliant tool. At[ ](http://913.ai)[913.ai](https://913.ai), this perspective enables conservative organizations such as insurers to enter the AI era in a way that respects regulation, responsibility, and existing teams while still unlocking real efficiency gains.

Lunchtime Mental Health Walks - Schöneberg, Wilmersdorf
Berlin is dark. Especially in winter. That's why it's important to catch those rays of sun, while they are still there. At lunch time the sun is the strongest. While walking together we can enjoy a nice conversation, get those steps in, increase our serotonin production as well as sync the circadian rhythm. It's also a lovely break from work.
I would like to invite you to our mental health walk event.
Agenda:
12:10 We meet at Schöneberg Park next to the fountain with the golden deer statue ("Der goldene Hirsch").
12:15 We walk to Volkspark Wilmersdorf
12:50 We arrive back in Schöneberg Park, at the golden deer statue.
We walk at every weather, so make sure to dress properly!
Looking forward to meeting you at our lunchtime walk.

Anatomy of a Term Sheet (Seed / Pre-Series A) – What Really Matters
Great to see how much interest and engagement there was around our last session on the Convertible Loan Agreement – thanks to everyone who joined and asked so many thoughtful questions 🙌
Given that momentum, I’d love to continue the series with another practical, founder-focused meetup in Berlin in \~4 weeks:
🍕 Pizza & 🍺 beer & 🍷wine
🤝 relaxed networking
🎓 a 30-minute practical intro session:
**“Anatomy of a Term Sheet (Seed / Pre-Series A)”**
(no legalese, no theory – just what actually matters in practice)
We’ll look at questions like:
– valuation vs. real economics
– liquidation preference & participation
– option pool mechanics
– control rights, vetoes, and board setup
– common red flags and negotiation traps
After the short session, plenty of time to hang out, meet people, and exchange war stories.
Looking forward to seeing many of you in person again soon. 🚀

Making Moves: Small-Group Coaching for Women in Product
## Hey Columbus WIP peeps!
## Are you ready for an event that actually gives you what you asked for??
**\-\-\-\-\-\-**
**A Small-group coaching conversations for women in product navigating growth, leadership, and career decisions.**
**March 10 \| 5:30–8:00 PM**
**Rev1 -- NEW SPACE**

**What moves are you making?**
A promotion you’re working toward.
A role change you’re considering.
A bigger leadership opportunity.
A conversation that needs to happen.
A decision that’s been sitting in the back of your mind.
For our Q1 Women in Product Columbus event, we’re creating space to actually work through those moments.
**Making Moves** is an evening of focused, facilitated coaching conversations with experienced mentors from our local product community. This isn’t a panel. It’s not passive networking. It’s small-group dialogue designed to be thoughtful, practical, and worth your time.
Here’s how it will work:
• You’ll choose a topic that reflects what you’re navigating right now
• You’ll join a small coaching circle (5–7 participants)
• Each circle is led by a mentor who has lived experience in that area
• We’ll run two rounds so you can go deeper or explore a second conversation
### Coaching Topics:
• Communicating the Value of Your Work (or Team)
• Career Transitions & What’s Next
• Growing Into Leadership
• Staying Relevant as Technology (and AI) Changes
• Getting Alignment and Decisions from Leadership
Our goal is simple: you leave with clearer thinking, practical perspective, and at least one next step you feel confident about.
Space in each circle will be limited to keep conversations meaningful.
If this sounds like the kind of room you’ve been wanting to be in, we’d love to see you on March 10.

**Attendees:**
Don't have a game to show? Not a problem! All are welcomed and invited from all ages and backgrounds. The more we can have to play test our games the better!
**Developers:**
Do you have a game that you would like to get critical feedback on? Would you like an excuse to work on a game with other talented artists, programmers, musicians, designers, and writers? Digital, table-top, non-experienced developers, and the like are welcomed! We'll provide signage for your game to help others learn more about your work. Wifi, outlets, tables, and seats (though standing tables also) are available.
Come to the Prototype and Play workshop to collaborate and meet local game developers for an evening of epic and raw game play fun! Play works-in-progress, show off your own game, work with others to add polish to a game, or even lend your talents to other fellow developers.
Can use South Garage at the Gateway with a $5 voucher on your way out.
