AI consulting and implementation that pays off

AI consulting finds out where AI makes economic sense in your business and how you get there. At wunderwerk, that means a workshop with your experts in which we examine processes, data and systems, assess use cases by benefit and effort and create a roadmap with a cost range. Unlike pure consultancies, we then also implement the roadmap, from prototype to operation.

At wunderwerk, the initial consultation is free; after that, you commission each phase separately and know its cost range up front. An AI workshop with potential analysis is a manageable fixed price, and a first prototype usually takes a few weeks of development effort, depending on the use case. Costs depend mainly on the state of your data, the number of systems to connect and the approval steps, and you decide after each step whether to continue. You can get a first estimate via the cost calculator or in the initial consultation.

Yes, if the use case is right. AI pays off wherever many similar tasks come up every day, such as invoices, enquiries, quotes or documentation. wunderwerk works mainly with SMEs and mid-sized companies in Austria, Germany and Switzerland and deliberately starts with a use case whose benefit can be measured in hours and euros, rather than with a grand AI strategy.

AI agents are programs that use language models to complete multi-step tasks on their own: read an email, look up the data in the ERP, draft a quote and submit it for approval. ChatGPT or Copilot is enough for individual texts and research; but as soon as AI is meant to work reliably with your data, automate processes and fit into ERP, CRM or email, you need a solution that knows permissions, data protection and your business rules. That is what wunderwerk builds: AI agents with clear permissions and approval steps, so decisions stay with people, rather than yet another chat window.

An AI operating system is your own software that brings a company’s data, processes and AI agents together in one place. Instead of spreading knowledge across Excel lists, Access databases and individual tools, employees and AI agents work on the same data and with the existing systems such as ERP or CRM. wunderwerk builds it step by step, starting with the process that delivers the greatest benefit. More on this on the page AI operating system instead of standard software.

No, you don’t need large amounts of data to get started with AI: modern language models are pre-trained and work directly with your documents, emails and system data, without any training of your own. wunderwerk grounds answers in your company data with RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) and picks the model for each use case and its protection needs, without being tied to one provider: large cloud models such as GPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic) or Gemini (Google) under a data processing agreement, Mistral AI as a European provider, or open-weight models such as Mistral, Llama, Gemma or Qwen on-premise on your own hardware. We only train custom models when the use case really calls for it, for example image analysis in production.

At wunderwerk, a first AI prototype with your real data is usually ready in 4 to 6 weeks. Before that come the initial consultation and workshop, which together take a few days. This is followed by integration into your systems and rollout in your team, in short steps with regular test versions.

Yes, wunderwerk implements AI in compliance with the GDPR: your data stays in your ownership and is not used to train third-party models. wunderwerk hosts in the EU, on-premise or in a private cloud on request, and uses large cloud models only under a data processing agreement. We plan permissions, logging and the obligations under the GDPR and the EU AI Act in from the start. See secure software development for how wunderwerk builds security in from the start.

Yes. wunderwerk connects AI via interfaces (APIs) to ERP, CRM, DMS, shop and specialist software, or builds language models directly into your existing application. Your systems remain in place; the AI complements them wherever work has so far been done manually. As a software agency with over 20 years of project experience, wunderwerk knows the integration work that many AI projects fail on.

wunderwerk keeps looking after AI solutions after rollout, with monitoring, quality measurement, maintenance and further development in live operation. On request, we then implement the next use case on the same data and rules. Some clients have been with us for more than ten years, the Egger Group for example since 2010; open technologies and documentation keep you independent along the way.

Yes, AI and digitalisation projects are funded in Austria, Germany and Switzerland through various programmes, depending on country, region, company size and project. However, KMU.DIGITAL, the Austrian SME programme, no longer accepts new applications and will not continue from 2027. Managing director Christoph Niedermoser is a KMU.DIGITAL Certified Digital Consultant and shows you which programmes apply to your project now, in a free funding check or the initial consultation.

wunderwerk combines AI consulting and implementation from a single source with over 20 years of project experience and more than 80 projects. We use AI ourselves: our own AI operating system, wunderOS, runs the company from sales to development. wunderwerk is a small team of AI engineers, software architects and full-stack developers with offices in Tyrol, Salzburg, Vienna and Berlin; we work remotely for clients in Austria, Germany and Switzerland and on site in Tyrol, Salzburg, Vienna and Berlin. You talk directly to the managing director and get software that holds up in operation, not a pilot project that gathers dust after the workshop.
