The use cases describe what we would actually build, not what AI could do in theory. Benefit figures are indicative ranges, not client results.
Detailed industry pages are written in German, the language of our core market. We are happy to discuss every use case in English.

FAQ
Questions about AI use cases
Which AI use cases should a mid-sized company start with?
Usually those with a high volume of similar documents or requests where the data is already digital: triaging the inbox, extracting data from forms and receipts, making internal knowledge searchable. The benefit is measurable and the risk is contained.
Do we need our own data or our own AI model?
For most cases, no. Existing documents, emails and exports from your systems are enough. A custom or fine-tuned model only pays off when standard models with good retrieval fall short or when data must not leave your premises.
Are the savings on these pages guaranteed?
No. Ranges on these pages are indicative values based on the type of task, not client results. Reliable numbers come from a pilot with your data, and that is what delivery is measured against.
Is AI possible in a GDPR-compliant way?
Yes, if it is planned in from the start: processing in the EU or on your own infrastructure, data processing agreements, masking personal data before model access and clear retention rules. We align this with your data protection officer.
