AI Development & Consulting
What large corporations have been using for years — now for the Mittelstand.
What large corporations have been using for years — now for the Mittelstand.
Over 10 years of experience delivering AI projects for international corporations, banks, and industrial enterprises. No slide decks — real systems running in production.
Internal AI search for the marketing department
A semantic search engine across internal documents, campaign materials, and brand guidelines — so employees can find what they need in seconds instead of rummaging through folders for hours.
Python · RAG · AWS
Knowledge base for exploration
Decades of geological analyses — printed, unstructured, hard to access. An AI-powered search makes this knowledge usable again: ask questions of the past, get answers with source references.
Python · RAG · Semantic Search · OCR
Public financial data search engine
A publicly accessible platform for structured market data — reliable, scalable, used daily. Developed and operated at enterprise level with stringent requirements for availability and data security.
Python · Kubernetes · Cloud · APIs
Automated processing of customer enquiries
Incoming customer enquiries are automatically recognised, categorised, and supplied with a suggested response — based on the company's own documentation. The support team reviews and sends, rather than having to research.

I focus on projects where I can genuinely make a difference. No jack-of-all-trades — deep expertise in the areas that offer the greatest leverage for the Mittelstand today.
My core discipline. I build systems that make your own documents, manuals, guidelines, and data searchable and queryable — with answers that reference concrete sources, no hallucinations.
Ideal if you have a large volume of internal documents and employees (or customers) need to find the right information quickly.
Recurring data processes — import, transformation, analysis, reporting — automated and enriched with AI. What costs hours of manual work today runs automatically tomorrow.
Whether structured data from ERP systems or unstructured documents and e-mails — I connect sources that previously couldn't talk to each other.
Automatically recognise, prioritise, and draft responses to incoming enquiries — based on your own knowledge base. Your team reviews and sends.
Faster response times, consistent quality — without extra headcount.
I don't just build — I can also run the solution and provide the necessary infrastructure on request. On-premise on your own server, in a European cloud, or on AWS and Azure.
You decide how much you want to handle yourself. I advise on the setup and can take over ongoing operations if needed.
What's genuinely worth it — and what's just hype? Drawing on my experience from real enterprise projects, I help you make the right decisions: which technologies actually help, which don't, and where your budget is best spent.
Particularly valuable for companies that want to adopt AI but don't have an in-house IT department or AI expertise.
Legacy systems, outdated infrastructure, the move to the cloud — I know these challenges from years of working with AWS, Azure, and other providers. I advise on planning and implementation so the transition is safe and sensible.
More advisory than operational — but with genuine technical depth rather than PowerPoint strategies.
Digitise paper mountains, automatically tag documents, and file them in a structured archive permanently — with Paperless-ngx, the proven open-source solution for digital document management.
Particularly well suited to law firms and accounting practices: I handle setup, scanner integration, and initial configuration — so you can simply get to work at the end.
Before we write a single line of code, we understand your processes. Where are the real bottlenecks? What can be sensibly automated? What will actually deliver value?
Not every AI idea is worth pursuing. I'll tell you honestly — even if the conclusion is: something else would work better here.
Wherever there's a large volume of internal knowledge that's hard to access — and where employees spend time searching for information instead of doing their actual work.
Making technical documentation searchable. Standards, design guidelines, maintenance manuals, inspection reports — all in one knowledge base that gives concrete answers to concrete questions. Less searching, more working.
Search client files and case law. Find the relevant passages in contracts, rulings, or assessments at the push of a button — no more page-flipping. New employees become productive faster.
I also support the rollout of Paperless-ngx: the digital filing system that ends paper mountains once and for all — from scanner to automatic tagging.
Handle enquiries semi-automatically. AI recognises the request, searches your own documentation, and drafts a finished response. Your team reviews and sends — instead of researching.
Making old knowledge accessible again. Reports, analyses, studies from years or decades past — searchable and queryable via AI. What used to disappear in an archive becomes useful again.
I work closely with my clients — in constant dialogue, not in isolation. The end result fits because you're involved from day one.
We start with a structured workshop — ideally on-site, but remote works just as well. Together we look at: How do your processes run? What do you need? What's already in place? Where are the gaps?
I use proven methods such as Design Thinking — so the end result is a system that genuinely fits your working day, not just one that looks good on paper.
No fee. No commitment.
I build a first prototype quickly — so you can make decisions based on real results, not slides. We stay in constant contact: feedback flows in directly, adjustments happen immediately.
No fee. No risk.
Convinced? Then we build the full solution — clean, documented, tailored to your infrastructure. How long it takes depends on the scope: sometimes a few days, sometimes several weeks or months.
The result is entirely yours — code, documentation, no vendor lock-in.
You only pay once you're convinced.
For well-defined projects with a known scope. We agree together on what gets delivered — you know the cost from the outset.
Ideal for first projects and when planning certainty is important.
For projects that are still evolving or where flexibility matters more than a fixed endpoint. Transparent billing based on actual effort.
Ideal for longer engagements or exploratory projects.
I use AI consistently in my own work. That means: I work faster, not worse. I pass the efficiency gains directly on to you.
What used to require a six-figure budget can now be delivered in a few weeks.
It depends heavily on scope. A first prototype is often achievable within a few days — so you can see early on whether the direction is right. A full solution takes anywhere from a few weeks to a few months depending on complexity. We'll be transparent about this after the first conversation.
No. You just need to know your own working day — that's the key thing. The technology is my responsibility. I explain everything in plain terms, without jargon, so you always have a clear picture of what's happening.
Yes, absolutely. Everything we develop together is entirely yours — including complete documentation. You're not dependent on me and can continue developing the solution later with your own team or another agency.
Yes. For the initial discovery workshop in particular, I'm happy to come to you in person — in my experience that produces the best results. For ongoing collaboration, remote usually works just as well.
We sign a GDPR-compliant data processing agreement. On request, all systems can be operated entirely within your own infrastructure — without data leaving the company. For cloud solutions we exclusively use providers with data centres in Germany or the EU.
Smaller and medium-sized companies often benefit most — because targeted automation makes a proportionally larger difference than in large corporations with entire IT departments. There is no minimum size.
Free, no commitment, no slide deck. I'll listen and give you an honest assessment of whether and how I can help.
