Your own AI · On your premises · Engineering from Germany

Your own AI for mid-sized companies.

A complete AI system from a single source: hardware, AI models, company knowledge, setup, integration and support. On your premises, with your data and your rules.

YOUR AI on your premises Documents Chat Microsoft 365 Research E-mail Coding Knowledge ERP Expertise CRM Image & vision Databases

Your AI, installed on your premises. Your systems provide the knowledge; the AI turns it into answers with sources, drafts, evaluations and code. AI processing on your hardware, not at a cloud provider.

Structure diagram: your AI as a device in the centre, on your premises. Around it the connected systems and what the AI can do with them: documents, chat, Microsoft 365, research, e-mail, coding, knowledge, ERP, expertise, CRM, image and vision, databases. Signals travel in both directions.

  • Hardware, setup, integration and training included
  • AI processing on your own hardware
  • From €10,000 one-time. No mandatory AI subscription
  • Personal support and updates for your AI

The real question

The question is not whether you use AI.
The question is where your data ends up.

Quotations, contracts, calculations, design documents and personnel files: the very documents where AI helps most are the ones you least want to hand over. And in many companies AI is already in use, just without any control.

Option 1

AI from the cloud

Good for general tasks, a quick rollout and standard applications. But as soon as quotations, contracts or design documents are pasted in, exactly that data leaves your premises. Where it is processed and which law applies is governed by the provider's terms.

  • Useful for general, non-critical tasks
  • Your data sits with the provider
  • Ongoing costs, someone else's terms
Option 2

Banning AI

Sounds safe, but rarely is. Employees then use ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot through private accounts on their own phones. Your data leaves all the same, only without you seeing which.

  • Shadow AI without any control
  • No benefit for the company
  • The competition doesn't wait
Our approach

Your own AI in-house

The AI sits on your premises. Your documents stay where they are. You decide who may see what, and you invest once instead of every month. Particularly interesting for sensitive company data, internal knowledge and individual permissions.

  • AI processing on your hardware
  • Access according to your rules
  • Bought, not rented, no mandatory AI subscription

Not every AI has to run locally. If AI is already being used in your company, your own company AI is the controllable alternative for the use cases where your data matters.

What you buy

You are not buying a server.
You are buying a complete AI system.

Hardware, AI models, your company knowledge, data connection, roles and permissions, setup, training, support and updates: fully assembled, on your premises, under your control. You don't get a list of components, you get a ready-to-use company AI.

The AI solution in detail
  1. HardwareCompact system, server or redundant pair, installed on your premises
  2. AI modelsSeveral vetted, open models: the right one for each task
  3. Company­knowledgeManuals, contracts, file stores: searchable, with source reference
  4. PermissionsRoles and access areas: everyone sees only what they are allowed to see
  5. IntegrationMicrosoft 365, ERP, CRM, DMS, databases: read, combine, defined actions
  6. EmployeesSet up, trained, supported: learning portal and webinars included
  7. ProductivityAnswers in seconds instead of hours of searching, on your premises

Control

Data and infrastructure stay under your control. You decide on sources, permissions and outbound connections.

Productivity

Knowledge is found and used faster: answers with source instead of searching across drives and asking colleagues.

Continuity

Company knowledge stays accessible, even when employees move on or retire. It no longer lives only in people's heads.

We don't sell you a specific model and we don't develop our own foundation models. We build you a system that can use suitable open models for your tasks, and adapt it to your company. The right AI, not the biggest possible one.

Integration & connectors

Your AI works with your existing IT.

Your company AI does not have to work in isolation. We connect it to the systems you already use: from Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace via CRM and document management to ERP, DATEV, databases and your own business applications. From company knowledge to defined actions, within the scope you approve.

  • Your system is not listed?Custom connection

Examples of possible connections. The specific scope of functions depends on the respective system, the available interfaces and the permissions you grant. Brand names are the property of their respective owners.

Your own AI

On your premises. With your company knowledge, your roles and permissions.

The AI reads approved sources, combines information from several systems and can, where the interface provides for it and you approve it, carry out defined actions. Processing happens on your hardware.

What comes out of it

  • Answerswith a reference to the document or record they come from
  • Knowledgecombined from several systems, according to your permission structure
  • Analysessummaries, comparisons and evaluations across your sources
  • Defined actionsa draft, an issue, an entry or a hand-over, where provided for and approved

ReadIn every connection

Retrieve approved information.

Documents, e-mails, knowledge bases, CRM and ERP data, project information, files and databases. The AI only sees what you approve, and only what the person asking is allowed to see themselves.

UnderstandIn every connection

Combine information from several sources.

“Which open quotations do we have for this customer, and which technical requirements were documented in the last project?” The answer comes from the CRM and the project folder, with a reference to both.

ActDepending on integration and approval

Carry out defined actions.

Where the interface provides for it and you approve it: prepare an e-mail draft, create an issue in the ticket system, update a CRM entry, hand data over to a system or trigger a defined workflow. Not every integration supports every action; which ones are possible, we clarify during setup.

Control

Your AI does not act uncontrolled.

A connection does not mean blanket access to your company IT. You decide which systems are connected, which data is accessible and which permissions apply. Actions are only possible within the scope of the configured integration and your approvals.

  • Roles and permissions from your existing structure also apply to the AI
  • Only approved data sources, areas and systems
  • Controlled interfaces with the permissions you grant for them
  • Every connection runs on your network; outbound connections only when you approve them
  • Traceable integration configuration, documented in the technical description

Under the hood we use open standards such as MCP, APIs and OpenAPI. You don't have to understand them; we set them up. More in the technical architecture and under Security & data sovereignty.

Further systems

Your system is not listed?

No problem. We check the existing interfaces and APIs of your software and, where needed, develop a custom connection. Whether and to what extent that is possible, we tell you after the check, not before. In-house software, industry solutions and special interfaces are the norm in mid-sized companies, not the exception.

Use cases

What your AI can do on day one.

No experiments, but tasks that come up every day in any mid-sized company, with questions the way your employees ask them.

All use cases

Company knowledge

“Which warranty terms apply to product X?” Decades of manuals, maintenance records and product knowledge become searchable. With source reference.

Onboarding

“How does this process work here?” New employees don't have to start from scratch. The AI answers their questions based on your approved company sources, without them first having to know whom to ask.

Documents & contracts

“Compare these two contract versions and show the differences.” Search contracts, tenders and technical documentation with your own AI.

Research & analysis

“Summarise the requirements from 120 pages of tender documents.” Structured, traceable, in minutes. The judgement stays with you.

Coding

“Explain this existing code and document the most important functions.” For the macros and scripts that keep the business running.

Image & vision

“Analyse this document, photo or technical image.” Capture and describe receipts, delivery notes, drawings and photos from production.

What our customers say

What customers say about their own knowledge.

We have 25 years of knowledge tied up in machines, projects and people. For us, the decisive point is not storing even more information but making it quickly accessible to the right people. That is exactly what our own AI does: a new colleague asks a question and gets the answer together with the source.
Paul ArndtCEO, PrintsPaul
In complex productions, the problem is often not the solution itself but finding it again quickly the next time. Setups, interfaces, configurations: the knowledge was there, but spread across project folders and people's heads. That is exactly where internal technical knowledge becomes especially valuable, once you can simply ask it.
Igor MilanCEO, Spieletechnik.tv

We publish verbatim quotes only once the respective speaker has approved the wording. Both companies are approved as references; the case studies describe the starting point, the change and the setup.

Full service across the entire lifecycle

We don't just deliver the technology.
We make sure it works for you.

From planning to further development: eight steps, one contact person. For you that means less internal project management, less technical work of your own, less integration risk and faster productive use. And a contact person who is still there after the installation.

The process in detail
  1. PlanNeeds, package, fixed-price quotation
  2. DeliverHardware, preconfigured and ready to run
  3. Set upModels, roles, permissions, your terminology
  4. IntegrateFile stores, Microsoft 365, ERP, CRM, DMS
  5. TrainContact persons, learning portal, webinars
  6. TestTogether, on your real questions
  7. SupportSupport desk, updates, dedicated contacts
  8. EvolveNew models, more users, further sources

What you don't have to do yourself

  • Select a server and configure graphics cards
  • Select, install and keep AI models up to date
  • Build the knowledge search across your documents yourself
  • Develop user permissions and roles
  • Connect data sources such as file servers, Microsoft 365 or ERP
  • Organise and install updates
  • Train employees and shoulder operation yourself

What stays with you

  • Name one or two contact persons who know where the documents are
  • Approve knowledge sources and the permission structure
  • Test together on ten real questions before handover

You don't need an AI project team of your own. Your IT doesn't have to build anything: it provides a place with power and network and access to the file stores that are to be connected.

The device

You actually buy a machine of your own.

Not access to a platform, but a system that sits on your premises. In three sizes, depending on the number of users and your resilience requirements. And you may not even need new hardware: if your existing infrastructure is sufficient, we take it into account.

Future-proof

Your hardware stays.
Your company knowledge stays.
The AI can keep evolving.

The AI world moves fast. That is why you are not locking yourself into a single model: we don't sell you a specific model, we sell you a system that can use suitable models for your tasks. When a better model comes along, you replace the model, not your data basis.

No new platform. No new data project.

You are not buying a dead end.

The system grows with your company, without starting over. Whatever you add later, we add to the running system.

  • More users
  • Larger models
  • Additional capabilities
  • Further knowledge sources
  • New roles and permissions
  • Further integrations
  • More powerful hardware

Technically, a model change can require a new indexing run across your knowledge sources. Your source data stays within your infrastructure throughout. Model updates are included for twelve months, after that optionally as an update service.

The device sits on your premises.
There is no cloud account.
Before handover, we test the AI with your real questions.
Remote maintenance only with your approval.

Does it pay off?

What does it cost not to find knowledge?

These costs appear on no invoice. They are hidden in search time, queries, duplicated work and in the knowledge that leaves the company with a colleague.

  • Search time: drives, folders, old e-mails, until the right version is found
  • Queries: the colleague who knows the answer gets interrupted
  • Onboarding: new employees need months before they know where things are
  • Knowledge loss: experience retires or goes to the competition
  • Duplicated work: what has already been solved once is solved again
  • Manual document analysis: tenders, contracts and reports are read page by page

Even small time savings on recurring knowledge questions can quickly add up economically across several employees. The calculator in the configurator works with your own assumptions.

Try & buy

Try first.
Then decide.

Test the complete system with your own questions and in real day-to-day work: set up, with your documents and your employees. You don't have to take a presentation on trust. If you buy afterwards, we credit half the trial rental and the full deposit.

After setup, the support really begins: training, learning portal, webinars and a support team that knows your system.

Service & learning portal

Video learning portal

A constantly growing video learning portal, expanded on the basis of our customers' experience and feedback.

Live webinars

Regular deep dives, new possibilities and practical application, with questions from your colleagues' everyday work.

AI-assisted support

Fast answers, clearly labelled: you always see whether the AI or a person is answering. And a person is available to you within service hours.

Frequently asked questions

What managing directors ask us first.

What do I get for €10,000, €30,000 or €50,000?

A ready-to-use AI system for 10, 50 or 150 users: the hardware in the matching class, open AI models for the selected capabilities, the connection of your file stores, roles and access areas, setup, a joint test, training for your contact persons, learning portal, support and twelve months of updates. The packages differ in hardware class, number of users, number of capabilities, roles and connections and, with AI Enterprise, in redundancy. Exactly what is included is shown in the package overview; the configurator adapts every package.

Do we have to operate the system ourselves, or does our IT have to build something?

No. We deliver the hardware, set up the AI, connect your knowledge sources, create roles and permissions to your specification, train your team and support operation. Your IT doesn't build anything: it provides a place with power and network, the system's access to the file stores and your permission structure; what that means in detail is described in the technical architecture. What stays with you: naming contact persons, approving sources and permissions, and testing with us.

What happens if a better model is released in two years?

Then you replace the model, not your data basis. Your hardware and your company knowledge with sources, roles and permissions stay; the new model is installed as an update, after your approval. Technically, a model change can require a new indexing run across your knowledge sources; your source data stays within your infrastructure throughout. Updates are included for twelve months, after that as an update service for €1,200 per year or within remote service. How this works technically is shown in the technical architecture.

Why not simply ChatGPT?

Cloud AI is good for general tasks, a quick rollout and standard applications. But as soon as employees paste in quotations, contracts, customer data or design documents, exactly that data leaves your premises, and the AI still doesn't know your company. Your own AI answers from your documents, respects your access permissions and processes everything on your hardware. Not every AI has to run locally. For sensitive company data, internal knowledge, local data sources, individual permissions and long-term independence, your own infrastructure is the controllable option.

When is your own in-house AI worthwhile?

When several employees regularly work with company knowledge such as manuals, contracts, quotations and documentation, and you don't want that content to sit with a provider. Even small time savings on recurring knowledge questions have a noticeable effect across several employees. The calculator in the configurator uses your number of users and your hourly rate to work out when the investment pays for itself.

What happens if employees don't use the system?

Then it hasn't paid off, and we know that. That is why the rollout starts with the real questions from your day-to-day work, not with a demo. Before handover we test the AI against them; your contact persons receive a handover training session, everyone else gets the learning portal and the webinars. What helps most: the first answer with a source that saves a colleague half an hour of searching. In our experience, word gets around.

How much work stays with us?

Three things: you name one or two contact persons, you approve the knowledge sources and the permission structure, and you test with us using your questions. Setup, connection, configuration, training and updates are handled by us. You don't need your own AI project team.

What happens to our data?

It stays where it is: on your drives and in your systems. The AI reads it within the permissions you define and processes questions and answers on the hardware on your premises. There is no cloud account and no third-country transfer for AI processing. Remote access for maintenance exists only if you approve it, and it is logged.

Can we use our existing hardware?

Often, yes. You may not even need new hardware. The hardware check takes two minutes to assess whether your server with graphics card can support the desired capabilities for your number of users. If the result is positive, you save the hardware share of the package: instead of the complete system from €10,000 it is then an integration on your hardware from €6,000. If your server cannot run the AI, the complete system applies.

What does operation cost?

After purchase: the electricity for the device and, if you want them, optional services: remote service at €490 per month, extended support at €290 per month, each cancellable monthly. Updates are included for twelve months, after that €1,200 per year or included in the remote service. There is no mandatory AI subscription.

Can we test the system first?

Yes. With “Try & buy” you test the complete system in real operation: set up, with your documents and your employees. Daily rental 0.3 % of the purchase value, minimum 180 days, plus a deposit of 10 %. If you buy afterwards, we credit half the rental and the full deposit. If you decide against it, we collect the system and delete your data verifiably.

We have an AI ban in our company. Why should we change that?

A ban rarely protects. In practice, employees then use private accounts on their own phones. The data leaves all the same, only invisibly. Your own AI solves the problem behind the ban: you get the benefit without your documents ending up with a provider. You can keep the ban on third-party services.

Can DataFlowFacts access our data?

Not without your approval. Without remote service, we have no access to your system. With remote service, access exists only within the scope you define, and every session is logged. For this we conclude a data processing agreement with you.

How do updates get onto the system if it isn't connected to the internet?

Either you open the connection for the update process and close it afterwards, or your IT installs the update as a package. With the remote service we take care of it after your approval. In all cases, none of your data is transferred. Only the update comes in.

What happens if the hardware fails?

With AI Compact and AI Team, the AI runs on one system. If it fails, the AI is down until the device is repaired or replaced; your documents are not affected, they sit on your drives. We back up the configuration and knowledge index so that they can be restored on a replacement device. AI Enterprise is redundant by design: two systems, and the failure of one system can be absorbed by the other. We don't give a guarantee of uninterrupted operation. That wouldn't be honest for any system.

How long does it take from order to operation?

That depends on hardware availability and the scope of the knowledge sources. We state the specific schedule in the quotation. We don't promise a number of weeks we can't keep.

Do our employees need training?

The interface is as simple as a chat. Contact persons receive a handover training session; everyone else gets the video learning portal and the live webinars. In our experience, most people simply get started and then ask what else is possible.

Is there a contract term or a subscription?

No. The system belongs to you after purchase. There is no contract term, no mandatory fee and no cancellation. Optional monthly services can be cancelled monthly.

Can the AI actually do something in our systems, or only read?

Both, in clearly separated stages. Reading, searching and combining from approved sources are included in every connection. Defined actions such as preparing an e-mail draft, creating an issue, updating a CRM entry or handing data over to a system are possible where the interface of the respective system provides for them and you approve them. We set them up as part of the integration, with the permissions you grant for them. The AI does not get blanket access to your IT. Which actions are possible for your systems, we clarify during setup; the section Integration & connectors gives an overview.

Can we integrate our existing documents?

Yes, that is the heart of the matter. File server, NAS and network drives are included in every package; Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, e-mail, Nextcloud, Confluence as well as ERP, CRM, DMS and databases can be added as connections. The documents stay where they are. The AI reads them there and cites them as the source. Common formats such as PDF, Office files, scans and e-mails are processed; special formats we clarify in conversation.
