contents We present a 10 mJ-class laser system for seeding petawatt-class Ti:Sa lasers based on a hybrid, femtosecond optical parametric and negatively chirped Ti:Sa-based amplification architecture. Output pulses with 13 mJ energy, 14.4 fs transform limited duration, and high spatio-spectral quality are reached at 100 Hz repetition rate centered at 788 nm wavelength. By compressing 1 mJ energy with bulk glass and positively chirped mirrors, a pulse duration of 15.5 fs is measured. The intensity contrast is higher than 10$^{12}$ already 15 ps before the main pulse. The presented architecture can be a robust and reliable solution for seeding sub-17 fs high intensity lasers with ultrahigh contrast at up to 100 Hz repetition rate.
