FAQ
We have a concrete idea for an AI automation. How long does such a project typically take?
The duration for an AI implementation varies individually.
Many routine tasks in document-based, commercial, or administrative processes can be implemented quickly using generative AI. These projects typically take between 4 to 12 weeks.
Complex automations requiring deep domain knowledge (e.g., quality inspections in manufacturing, forecasts, customer segmentation) need custom AI training. These projects often take 3 to 6 months, and the requirements regarding data quantity and quality are also higher.
Our AI Strategy Playbook explains the differences in detail, allowing you to get a more comprehensive estimate. In an initial consultation, you can discuss your idea with our experts without any obligation.
When does custom software make sense?
Custom software makes sense when standard solutions don't sufficiently reflect your processes, or when you aim to develop a digital product or a customer-centric platform. Typical cases include specialized or highly customer-specific workflows, complex processes, as well as digital products or portals that enable new business models.
In an initial consultation, we'll advise you without obligation on whether a custom solution is the right choice and, if appropriate, also present alternatives.
How can we modernize custom IT applications as cost-effectively as possible?
We help you modernize your custom software specifically and cost-effectively. By using a step-by-step approach (refactoring, modular migration, integrating modern technologies), we minimize downtime, reduce risks, and ensure your systems remain maintainable over the long term. This approach keeps your costs low, lets you benefit from new features faster, and future-proofs your IT landscape. In an initial consultation, we will gladly advise you without obligation on a suitable strategy.
