WordPress Origin Story

After years of building and maintaining WordPress sites in the DACH market, one frustration kept surfacing: the plugin ecosystem is built for an English-speaking, US-hosted audience. “GDPR-compliant” too often means a cookie banner and a privacy policy template — while the plugin itself quietly pipes data to AWS us-east-1.
BrainWerk exists to close that gap. Plugins built EU-first, with German UX, EU-only data flows, and the audit trails you actually need when a Datenschutz-Anfrage lands on your desk.
Currently shipping:
ShieldForge — Security & DSGVO compliance, built for site owners who answer to the Datenschutzbehörde.
SeoForge — SEO without the bloat or the third-party calls.
