Vienna, February 2, 2026 – Anyline, a global leader in AI-powered visual inspection and data capture, today announced the appointment of Christoph Braunsberger as Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective immediately. The leadership transition marks a strategic inflection point as Anyline builds on years of successful deployments across logistics, manufacturing, retail, and public sector use cases, with automotive representing a core growth driver characterized by exceptional commercial momentum and accelerating enterprise adoption.
Braunsberger succeeds Lukas Kinigadner, Co-Founder of Anyline, who moves into the role of Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). In this role, Kinigadner will focus on global revenue execution, customer expansion, and strategic partnerships as demand for Anyline’s AI-powered inspection and data capture solutions continues to grow across multiple industries.
“This leadership transition reflects where Anyline is today,” said Lukas Kinigadner, Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer of Anyline. “Our AI platform has achieved clear product-market fit across industries, with strong and accelerating traction in automotive.” The company is on a clear path toward profitable growth. Christoph is the right CEO for this phase, and I’m excited to concentrate fully on driving revenue, partnerships, and customer impact.”
Braunsberger joined Anyline in 2019 as Chief Financial Officer and Managing Director, where he helped build the operational and organizational foundations required to scale the company internationally. He played a key role in Anyline’s U.S. expansion, led multiple funding rounds, and served as President of Anyline Inc., strengthening the company’s presence in the North American market. With a background in investment banking, strategy consulting, and finance, most recently at PwC, he brings deep expertise in execution, governance, and scaling technology companies through rapid growth phases.
Under the new leadership structure, Anyline is shaping its AI-first operating model as adoption of its solutions accelerates across global enterprise customers and industries. This momentum is underscored by a major milestone: Anyline has now surpassed 100 million tire scans worldwide, validating its computer vision technology at industrial scale. Building on this foundation, the company’s platform is readily applicable to a broad range of visual inspection and data capture use cases for enterprise customers.
“Anyline’s AI is already delivering real-world impact at scale,” said Christoph Braunsberger, CEO of Anyline. “My focus is on building on that momentum—strengthening our operating model, scaling efficiently, and deepening collaboration with customers and partners as global AI adoption accelerates.”
