Nikolaos Korakianitis is a 17-year-old entrepreneur and the Founder & CEO of Korakianitis Automotive Research (KAR AI), an AI-powered car selection platform. The idea took shape during his first year of high school, when he set out to build something that could genuinely change how people make one of their biggest purchasing decisions: buying a car. KAR AI analyzes technical specifications, market prices, and available trims to recommend vehicles tailored to a user's budget, needs, and usage patterns. The platform's roadmap includes model comparisons, cost-of-ownership estimates, reliability data, saved search history, curated listings, and an accessories marketplace — with the long-term goal of becoming a comprehensive automotive ecosystem. Nikolaos is currently completing his International A-Levels and plans to study Automotive Engineering at Politecnico di Torino in Italy, with an eye toward a future in motorsport. He is also an ENGin volunteer and a former basketball vice captain. His work has been featured in GOCAR, one of Greece's leading automotive media outlets.
