Custom AI development project

When there is no standard tool for your process.

Then we build it: from discovery through a working prototype to productive operation, with our own development team. And if there is a simpler way, we say so.

Discovery and prototype can be commissioned separately. Strategy, design and development come from one team.

Built for your system landscape

Starting point

When a standard tool is no longer enough

Much can be done today with assistants and workflows in an AI platform. If that is the case for you, that is exactly what we recommend.

Another trigger: employees have built something themselves with AI tools that is used every day, but without access control, tests or operation. We bring such solutions into a state your IT can take responsibility for.

If a standard tool is enough, you get there faster with AI adoption. If the use case is still open, it starts with Getting started with AI.

A custom solution is needed when
  • the process depends on ERP, PLM or QM system
    Systems
  • the logic is specific to your product or industry
    Logic
  • the result must be traceable and reproducible
    Result
  • suppliers, customers or care providers work with it too
    Users
  • the volume is too high for a chat interface

Concerns

Three objections to custom software and our answer to them

„Too expensive“
At first you commission only discovery and prototype. The development budget only flows once the prototype has shown on real data that the solution holds up.
„Too slow“
You see working increments at short intervals and know early whether it works.
„Too dependent“
The solution belongs to you, with everything your IT needs to take it over. Whether we run it or you do is your decision, later on as well.
Approach

From the idea to a productive system

Concept, design, development and operation come from one team. We treat your solution like a product, with prioritisation, releases and a roadmap.

  1. Commissioned separately

    Discovery

    We look at the process and clarify with the future users what the solution must do. Result: solution scope, effort estimate, statement on feasibility.

  2. Commissioned separately

    Proof of concept

    We build the riskiest part first, as a working prototype on real data.

    Then you decide on development
  3. In short cycles

    Development

    Delivery with regular reviews, integration into your systems, tests and acceptance together with the departments.

  4. By us or your IT

    Operation

    Go-live, hosting, monitoring and support. Then further development along what operation shows.

Operation

Run it or hand it over: your decision

We prepare both properly. Which models and services work inside the solution and who is involved as a processor, we disclose.

We run the solution

With monitoring, updates, support for your users and further development along the roadmap. Your contact is the team that built the solution.

Where it runs
European data centres: Azure, AWS, Hetzner

Your IT takes over

We hand over documentation, access and an operations manual, and support the handover until your team carries the solution on its own.

Capability
Private AI platforms and RAG

Many development projects build on a private knowledge platform: AI answers from your documents and systems, with source references, on-premises or in the EU cloud.

From practice

An AI platform for procurement, from concept to operation

Not a medical technology project, but the proof that we can build and run a platform.

Savify

Savify wanted to rethink indirect procurement: an AI-supported platform that finds savings automatically and carries the whole process, from analysis to negotiation. We designed, built and operate it: cloud-native, GDPR-compliant, with agentic AI for onboarding, spend analysis, tenders and negotiation. Live for more than twelve months.

Scope
Concept, UI/UX, front and back end, DevOps
Operation
by Nao, cloud-native
Duration
more than 12 months, ongoing

Do you have a use case in mind?

In a first call we assess whether it needs development work or whether there is a simpler way. If there is, we say so.
