About True Masters

An IT company built in one of the world's fastest-growing AI hubs

True Masters was founded in Astana — home to Astana Hub, the largest technology park in Central Asia — and built from day one around a global standard of delivery. We design, build, and operate technology products end-to-end: from architecture through implementation and long-term support.

In one sentence

True Masters is a software development and applied AI company headquartered in Astana, Kazakhstan. Founded by Temirlan Mukatayev, the company delivers custom software, RAG and AI agent systems, and cybersecurity services to enterprise clients across Asia, Europe, and America, and operates its own Crossref-registered research journal, True Masters Innovations.

We work as a single accountable partner across four disciplines — custom software development, applied AI, cybersecurity audits and penetration testing, and IT outsourcing — so clients get one team instead of coordinating five vendors.

Our mission: to engineer AI-driven systems that make ambitious companies measurably faster — and to advance the engineering practice behind them through our own research.

Where we work

Built in Astana. Delivering globally.

Our team has delivered software, AI, and security projects for clients across Asia, Europe, and America — working directly with founders, CTOs, and operations leaders across time zones. Our founder travels regularly to meet clients and partners in person, because the best systems get built through direct conversation with the people who'll use them.

Launch. Scale. Automate.

How we structure every engagement: ship a working system fast, scale it as usage grows, then automate the parts that shouldn't need a human anymore.

Research & Development

We don't just implement AI — we publish research on it

True Masters operates True Masters Innovations, our own scientific-practical journal, registered with Crossref and publishing peer-reviewed work at the intersection of applied AI, systems engineering, and digital infrastructure. It's the same R&D discipline that produced Tanym Loop and Qalam Masters — our team doesn't just apply the latest models, we study how they should be applied.
