The Team Behind OBE

A decade of global technology storytelling, forged into legal infrastructure.

Our journey began in Berlin with Streamhub UG, becoming the primary production vendor for Google Developers and Google Launchpad. We shot over 200 stories for Google across 31 countries before pivoting full-time into data engineering, Vision LLMs, and mass consumer arbitration in Dallas, Texas.

Built by founder Tim Ottowitz alongside trial lawyer Charles Bennett and legal operations staff to solve the real document gridlock of high-volume litigation.

Background & Journey

From global Google tech stories to high-volume legal pipelines.

How fourteen years of international production, AI research with Google, and courtroom litigation intake created the foundation for OBE.
01Berlin to Global Tech

Streamhub UG and Google Launchpad

Our journey began in the vibrant startup scene of Berlin, Germany, where we founded Streamhub UG, a production company. We served the startup ecosystem and soon became the primary video production vendor for Google Developers and Google Launchpad. For nearly a decade, we engaged with high-growth startup founders globally, producing content that highlighted their innovations.

0231 Countries & Over 200 Stories

Google Business, TensorFlow, and Cancer Detection

We shot over 200 stories for Google, including 20 global stories across 31 countries specifically for Google Business covering social impact and technology across Android Marketplace and TensorFlow. In 2018, we collaborated with AI pioneer Peter Norvig on an AI story for Portal Telemedicina, demonstrating how TensorFlow and Google Vision identified cancer cells by connecting legacy hospital systems with advanced machine learning models.

03The Engineering Pivot

From Global Production to Full-Stack Data Engineering

Through extensive work in software development and AI, particularly during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, founder Tim Ottowitz recognized the limitations of travel-based production. This spurred a transition into programming, focusing on Vision LLMs, and expanding into full-stack and data engineering. This expertise culminated in data structuring roles, including his position as Chief Technology Officer at Bennett Legal in Dallas, Texas.

04The Dallas Crucible

Solving Mass Consumer Arbitration at Bennett Legal

At Bennett Legal, Tim encountered the complexities of consumer arbitration and the critical need for efficient data processing in mass arbitration cases. This insight spurred the development of an internal solution, OB, alongside legal professionals Charles Bennett (trial lawyer) and the firm's intake paralegals.

05The New OBE Angle

Where Content and Acquisition Meet AI and Tech

This is the breakthrough angle for OBE: where 14 years of creative storytelling and high-volume acquisition converge directly with frontier AI and legal data engineering. Rather than treating marketing as an external agency silo, Tim productized a 360-degree model within OBE: pairing a dedicated creative pipeline for Meta Ads and ad capital with an integrated case marketplace. The system channels claimants from their first ad interaction through automated intake, structuring facts and managing the entire workflow from ad click to statement of claim.

06The Human Core

Empowering Lawyers as High-Leverage Reviewers

Our vision for OB is an integrated system where LLMs assist attorneys by generating key sections of documents, eliminating manual data entry and document gathering. This allows legal teams to focus on critical review and strategic tasks, placing human expertise at the heart of the legal process.
