Nikolaus Grefe is the Director of Product Strategy and Growth at Intapp. He became part of the company through its acquisition of delphai, a Berlin-based AI and data company he built alongside Dr. Robin Tech. At the seed stage, he was instrumental in designing delphai’s AI system as a lead Data Scientist. He later established and led the sales team, driving growth and securing a successful Series A funding round in 2023, before partnering with Intapp in April 2024.
delphai emerged as a pioneer in applying AI to aggregate, process, and integrate firmographic data. It invented a natural language search interface for M&A deal sourcing, which later evolved into Intapp Assist for DealCloud’s origination capability. The product combines proprietary intelligence with premium partner data to deliver a fully integrated solution that is unique in the industry. Grefe holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of Freiburg and a master’s degree in statistics from Humboldt University of Berlin.
