Simon Baumer

Simon Baumer is a co-founder of OpenAssistant and the original architect of the platform our assistants are built on. He tragically passed away in the summer of 2023.

Simon was a lifelong entrepreneur and techie, and he had a unique and palpable passion for life. He was an avid fisherman, adventurer, and an amazing husband and father to his two beautiful children, Otis and Amelie.

A few weeks before his passing, Simon updated his LinkedIn profile to simply say "Builder." That's how he would want to be remembered.

When you use OpenAssistant, think of Simon. He would have loved to know that you, a random person on the internet, was using and benefiting from something that he built.
