SI FOR BUSINESS / FROM AN IDEA TO EVERYDAY WORK

SI that fits your work.

We set up SI in your business, improve existing solutions and develop software that uses models purposefully. From local models with freely available weights to frontier-model APIs, with suitable guidance, model training and an introduction for your team.

LOCAL, VIA API OR COMBINED

The right solution starts with your requirements.

Capabilities, data processing and effort belong together. We assess the options against your tasks and decide with you how the solution should run.

Local models

Run suitable models on your computer, server or an agreed infrastructure of your own. Runtimes such as Ollama can be one building block.

  • Size hardware, memory and concurrent usage
  • Check the model licence and intended use
  • Configure cloud features, interfaces and data flows explicitly

Freely available model weights can make it easier to get started. Hardware, setup, energy, updates and support still require resources.

Frontier models via API

Connect capable provider models for demanding tasks, for example through OpenAI, Anthropic or Mistral AI. The specific choice is made within the project.

  • Test suitability against your own tasks
  • Assess contract terms and data processing
  • Plan consumption, limits and ongoing charges

Features, availability and terms depend on the provider and model. Our estimate uses the conditions applicable to your offer.

Combine deliberately

Local processing and provider APIs can serve different tasks. A combination needs clear rules about which data may go where.

  • Assign tasks and data categories
  • Make handoffs and approvals visible
  • Measure quality and total costs together

A local model does not automatically make an entire application offline. Search, extensions, logs and external services must also be considered.

Open weights do not automatically mean an unrestricted open-source licence. Each model’s terms remain authoritative. Background: Hugging Face on licences · Ollama on local operation and cloud features.

INDIVIDUAL BUILDING BLOCKS OR ONE SHARED PATH

What we take care of.

Start with one clear question or have us accompany a project throughout. We agree the specific scope in your offer.

Requirements and model selection

We start with your task, existing systems and everyday examples. We compare suitable models by output quality, response time, data flows and total cost.

Outcome: a reasoned choice and a manageable pilot.

Setup and access

Set up a local runtime, server, interface or provider API. Match authentication, roles, access keys, logging and data processing to your use case.

Outcome: a configured environment with clear responsibilities.

Company knowledge and search

Bring in handbooks, internal documents or approved specialist information. We plan source attribution, updates and permissions throughout retrieval and response generation.

Outcome: knowledge integration with traceable sources and access.

Model training and fine-tuning

Adapt suitable models to recurring tasks: prepare data, plan training and evaluate against independent test cases. We clarify model licences, provider support and data usage rights first.

Outcome: a tested adaptation approach compared with the starting solution.

Software and automation

Integrate assistants, document processing and SI functions into your application. With documented APIs, bounded actions, approvals and understandable error handling.

Outcome: an application that fits your agreed workflow.

Team training and handbook

Train colleagues on their actual tasks: useful prompts, source checking, handling confidential data and understanding the limits of results. With matching instructions and exercises.

Outcome: your team can use the introduced solution with informed judgement.

Evaluation and protection model

Check quality using representative cases, test unwanted data access and manipulative inputs, and define human review and fallback paths. The test plan follows the intended use.

Outcome: documented tests, known limitations and acceptance criteria.

Operations and continuous improvement

Monitor usage, failures, response times and consumption within the agreed scope. Test model changes, updates and new data before introducing them deliberately.

Outcome: traceable operations with a budget and improvement plan.

UNDERSTANDING KNOWLEDGE INTEGRATION AND MODEL TRAINING

What should the model do better?

Making new documents available, steering responses and training a model are different tasks. We choose the approach based on your intended result.

01 / GUIDE BEHAVIOUR

Instructions and tools

Clear task descriptions, examples, response formats and deliberately authorised tools can already help. We test whether they can achieve the agreed quality.

02 / PROVIDE KNOWLEDGE

Knowledge integration / RAG

The application retrieves relevant material and gives it to the model as context. This allows current sources to inform responses. Permissions, retrieval quality and source maintenance are part of the plan.

03 / ADAPT A MODEL

Training and fine-tuning

Adapt a suitable model to a task using selected examples. We check data quality and rights, separate training and test data, and compare the results with the unchanged model.

Fine-tuning depends on the model and licence and does not automatically improve results. Knowledge integration is not model training. Technical background: Hugging Face PEFT · RAG · Model Cards for documenting suitability and limitations.

START SMALL. MOVE FORWARD WITH EVIDENCE.

A pilot with clear criteria.

  1. Task and constraints

    Clarify the goal, users, data, responsibilities and budget. These become an offer with scope, schedule and deliverables.

  2. Pilot and comparison

    Implement a bounded use case and test it with agreed examples. The existing way of working provides the comparison.

  3. Decision and handover

    Discuss results and open questions. If you adopt the solution, receive the agreed configuration, documentation, team introduction and acceptance tests.

  4. Operations and improvement

    Continue with an agreed support scope if you wish. Review quality, costs and changes regularly with a clear record.

HOW WE ASSESS THE PILOT

Agree the criteria first. Evaluate the results afterwards.

  • Factual accuracy and verifiable sources
  • Rework and time spent in the actual workflow
  • Response time and cost per task
  • Behaviour when knowledge is missing, inputs are wrong or permissions are absent

What does it cost?

You receive an individual quote. Consulting, setup, data preparation, development, testing and training are priced within the agreed scope. Hardware, hosting, API consumption and ongoing support are shown separately. We do not promise blanket savings or a particular result; the pilot provides the basis for your decision.

YOUR REQUIREMENTS IN A FEW STEPS

How should SI help you?

Select what is already clear. We will clarify the open questions together. Receive a summary for your enquiry without committing to a model or a price.

1. What support interests you?

Select several options; it is fine to leave questions open.

QUESTIONS BEFORE THE FIRST CONVERSATION

A good starting point can be simple.

Can we start with a free local model?

Yes, if the model licence, hardware and task fit. Freely available weights do not make the entire operation free. We first check what your existing equipment can handle and what setup and support will require.

Do we need to use our data for model training?

No. Depending on the task, better instructions, suitable search or knowledge integration may be enough. For commissioned training, we use only appropriate, lawfully available data. Purpose, access, retention and deletion are clarified within the project.

Do you also develop software that uses SI?

Yes. Examples include internal assistants, document-processing functions and connections to existing specialist systems. We agree the scope, source-code handover, rights to custom developments, documentation and operations explicitly in the offer. Third-party models and components remain subject to their own licences.

Can SI perform actions in our systems on its own?

That depends on the integration. We define which actions are allowed, who must approve them, and how errors are detected and handled. Responsibilities and fallback paths are part of the design.

What does training for our team include?

Practical exercises using the agreed tasks, clear rules for handling data and ways to check results. A suitable handbook and an introduction to the new workflows are included in the agreed training scope. We clarify the scope and audience beforehand.

Technical background reviewed on 9 October 2026. The linked provider documentation explains individual building blocks; we assess the suitability of a specific solution against your requirements.

A good place to start.
