AI automation
for mid-market and enterprise

We advise and implement with one team. Your AI workflows run on open source software on German servers, and you own them at the end of the project. Data protection is part of the design from day one. So far we have taken 10 AI systems into production across 6 industries, and first workflows usually go live within 2 to 4 weeks.

// Two approaches

Two approaches
to automation

A typical large project

✗ Proprietary tools that tie you to one vendor
✗ Six-figure budgets before anything reaches production
✗ Months of setup, followed by months of optimization
✗ AI as a black box with no insight into how it works
✗ Data in a US cloud without real control
✗ Long-term retainer contracts

How we work

✓ Open source stack, and you own the code
✓ Clear pricing: setup from €5,000, sprints at €8,000 each
✓ First workflows live within 2 to 4 weeks
✓ Every step of each workflow is documented
✓ EU hosting and a GDPR-compliant architecture
✓ Project-based, with no long-term commitment

// Process

From first call
to live operation

01

Initial consultation

30 minutes, free of charge. We talk through your processes and bottlenecks. Afterwards you know which workflows are a good place to start with automation.

02

AI audit and strategy

We review your data, tools and system landscape and assess where quick wins are possible and where the biggest lever lies. You receive a concrete action plan. The AI audit starts at €5,000.

03

Implementation

We build your AI workflows with open source tools such as n8n and LangChain, plus custom code. We work in sprints of 2 to 4 weeks, and every workflow is documented and tested.

04

Deployment and training

Deployment on EU hosting (Hetzner, Netcup or your own server). Onboarding, documentation and a proper handover make sure your team can run the workflows on its own.

05

Continuous improvement

Monitoring, performance tracking and monthly reviews. We optimize based on measured data from live operation.

// Technology

Open technology
without vendor lock-in

n8n

Self-hosted workflow automation with more than 400 integrations. An alternative to Zapier without recurring license fees.

LangChain

Orchestration for language models. LangChain connects AI models, tools and data sources into agents.

Ollama / vLLM

Language models such as Llama, Mistral and Gemma run on your own server. You keep control of your data and pay no per-request cloud fees.

PostgreSQL + pgvector

Vector database for RAG systems. Your company data becomes a knowledge base that can be searched with AI.

Hetzner / Netcup

Hosting in German data centers, GDPR-compliant and reasonably priced.

Docker

Container deployment. Every environment can be set up reproducibly and moved to other servers when needed.

We rely on open source models such as Mistral and Llama, self-hosted and GDPR-compliant. Open source is our default.

// Data protection and regulation

GDPR and EU AI Act
from the start

Data sovereignty

Your data stays in the EU, on your own server or with German hosting providers. Transfers to the US only happen with a legal basis.

Transparency

Every workflow is documented and every AI decision can be traced. With open source, you can inspect the code yourself at any time.

DPA

Data processing agreements with all sub-processors, backed by clear documentation of technical measures and deletion policies.

EU AI Act

Risk classification under the EU AI Act with logging, human-in-the-loop and bias monitoring. The requirements are part of the architecture from the beginning.

// AI Governance

AI governance
built in

Along with the automation, we deliver the compliance framework that goes with it, written concretely enough to put into practice in your organization.

Risk assessment matrix

Classification of all AI tools according to the EU AI Act risk categories (minimal, limited, high) with clear measures for each level.

ISO 42001 Risk assessment

Compliance documentation

Templates for technical documentation, DPIA, declaration of conformity and CE marking, ready for review from the first day of the project.

DPIA CE marking

Ongoing monitoring

Continuous monitoring of AI performance, bias detection and automatic alerts for compliance violations, so compliance stays in view after go-live.

Bias audit Alerts

// Content automation

Content automation
from text to audio

We build your content engine, operate it and keep it up to date for a fixed monthly price, and the setup is billed once up front. Your team focuses on the content while we take care of technology, updates and maintenance.

Text

Module 1

A RAG system that knows your brand guidelines, tone of voice and product data. Your team sets topics for blog posts, social media, newsletters or product descriptions, and the engine produces the drafts.

RAG LangChain Brand voice

Module 2

ComfyUI workflows for on-brand image generation, for example product photos, social media assets or banners. We train the model on your style, and your team creates the visuals itself.

ComfyUI SDXL LoRA training

Video

Module 3

Automated video production from templates, for example product clips, social reels and explainer videos. Standard formats no longer need a dedicated shoot.

Audio and voice

Module 4

Text-to-speech with branded voices for voiceovers, phone systems (IVR) and podcast episodes, so your brand sounds the same in every channel.
