Do we need our own IT department?

No. We handle the full technical implementation — from setup and integration to maintenance. You need no IT team and no prior knowledge. We train your staff and make sure every system is intuitive to use.

How long does implementation take?

Smaller automations go live in 2-4 weeks. More complex systems take 4-12 weeks depending on scope. We always start with a fast pilot so you see results early.

What does AI Consulting cost?

It depends on scope and complexity. The intro call and initial potential analysis are free. After that we build a tailored quote. The investment typically pays back in 3-6 months.

Are the solutions GDPR-compliant?

Yes, absolutely. Every system is built GDPR-compliant. Data stays in Germany or the EU. On request we ship on-premise solutions too — then data never leaves your infrastructure.

Which AI tools do you use?

We work with the leading platforms — OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, plus automation tools like Make, n8n and Zapier. We always pick the tool that fits your use case best — not the one with the coolest logo.
