Services · Consulting
Consulting before you build.
Before money goes into software, AI or visibility, it should be clear what is worth it. We advise across all three areas – AI, software and SEO/GEO – honestly and from the perspective of people who build things themselves. The result is a basis for decisions you can work with: with us or without us.
01 · AI consulting
Where AI pays off – and where it does not.
We look at your workflows, data and systems and show where AI saves time or improves quality. Sometimes the honest answer is: you do not need AI for that.
Analysis
Potential analysis & workshop
Together with your team we collect and assess use cases. The result is a prioritized list with effort, benefit and risks.
Plan
Strategy & roadmap
The best ideas become a plan: order, budget, responsibilities and how success will be measured.
Selection
Vendor & model selection
Which model, which tool, which provider – we compare performance, cost and data protection for your specific case.
Review
Second opinion on AI proposals
Already have a proposal or concept on the table? We check it for feasibility, running costs and hidden risks.
Optimisation
Review AI processes & costs
AI workflows are running, but costs keep rising? We analyse the processes, show where code is cheaper and more reliable than AI, and optimise on request.
02 · Technology consulting
Software, interfaces, systems.
Whether new software, a shop migration or connecting ERP and CRM: we help you make the right technical decision before it gets expensive.
Audit
Architecture & code review
We review existing software, websites and apps for maintainability, security and performance – with clear recommendations.
Concept
Interfaces & system design
How do ERP, CRM, inventory and shop fit together? We design how data should flow instead of being maintained several times.
Selection
System & shop selection
Shop system, CMS, framework or off-the-shelf software: we compare options against your requirements, not our preferences.
Leadership
Interim technical leadership
René Mattis supports your project as an external technical lead – from requirements to the acceptance of work by other providers.
03 · SEO & GEO consulting
Easier to find on Google and in AI answers.
We find out why you are not (yet) being found and which measures make the biggest difference – on Google and in ChatGPT, Perplexity and the like.
Audit
SEO audit
Technology, content, structure and competition – with a prioritized list of actions instead of a pile of numbers.
AI search
GEO check
How do you appear in AI answers, and how are you classified? We check mentions, structured data and how clearly your brand can be identified.
Plan
Visibility strategy
Topics, content and technical steps in a roadmap that your team or we can implement.
Review
Second opinion on SEO proposals
We check proposals and reports from other agencies for substance – clearly and without jargon.
04 · Funding & financing
Projects that can be financed.
There are federal and state funding programmes for digitalisation and AI projects in Germany. We show which ones may fit your project and plan it so that it meets the conditions. For funding advice and applications we work with a Leipzig agency that specialises in funding.
Partners
Specialised funding advice
For choosing programmes and applying, we bring in our partner agency from Leipzig that specialises in funding – you keep one point of contact.
Planning
Planning for eligibility
Schedule, work packages and costs structured to fit the funding conditions – for example, not commissioning anything before approval.
Documents
Project description & cost plan
We provide the technical documents for the application: project description, work packages and a transparent calculation.
Budget
Financing & budget
How can a larger project be split into stages and financed? We calculate options so you can plan.
05 · Process
From the first conversation to a decision.
Consulting with us is not a warm-up for a sales pitch. You get a result that holds up without us.
Step 1
Free initial call
We clarify goals, starting point and questions and tell you openly whether and how we can help.
Step 2
Quote
You receive a clear quote with scope and price – by day rate or as a fixed price for a defined result.
Step 3
Analysis & workshop
We get to know the subject, talk to the right people and review systems, data and content – on site in Leipzig or online.
Step 4
Result & recommendation
You receive the results in writing, with priorities and next steps. Whether we implement them is your decision.
06 · AI glossary
Terms for making decisions.
If you decide about AI, you don’t need to know the technical terms in detail, but you should be able to place them. Our glossary and overviews help.
AI glossary
Large Language Model (LLM)
A large language model (LLM) is a language model trained on enormous amounts of text. It generates text by predicting, piece by piece, the most likely next chunk of text.
Learn more →AI glossary
AI Agent
An AI agent is a system that pursues goals with a language model: it plans steps, uses tools such as search, databases or email, and checks intermediate results.
Learn more →AI glossary
Open Weights
With open-weights models, the trained model weights are published, so you can run and adapt the model yourself. That is not automatically the same as open source.
Learn more →AI glossary
GDPR and AI
The GDPR also applies when you use AI, as soon as personal data is processed. Legal basis, data processing agreements, storage location and transparency matter.
