Where the time goes, why generic AI doesn't fix it, and how we do.

The video loads from YouTube (privacy-enhanced mode) only after you press play.

We start with your workflow, not with a tool

Most AI projects pick the technology first. We measure first, so we automate the work that actually costs you hours.

  • Every hand-off and re-typing step written down

04 Measure

Measure it, then pick the next one

We re-time the same workflow after go-live, so you see what changed in hours, not in promises. Then we move to the next leak.

  • Before and after on the same measurement
  • Monthly review with your team
  • Stop any time

Works next to the tools you already use

No new system for your team to learn. We build inside what they already open every day.

  • Outlook
  • Teams
  • Excel
  • SharePoint
  • OneDrive
  • SAP
  • Business Central
  • AFAS
  • EDI
  • And more

And on the import side

Broker documents are read and turned into a draft purchase/import entry for Business Central. The AI proposes the tariff code and origin; a named person approves them before anything is posted.

Runs in your building or in the EU

We run it. Your data stays in the EU.

One web app on EU servers, managed by us. Updates, backups and monitoring included. Data is processed under a data processing agreement and never used to train public models.

Ask about hosting

AI suggests. People approve.

  • Quotes, tariff codes, origin claims and declarations are proposals until someone on your team approves them. The importer stays responsible, so the human stays in charge.

  • Every suggestion, edit and approval is logged with who, what and when, so you can show an auditor or customs officer exactly how a document was made.

  • Nothing is posted to your ERP or sent to customs automatically. Automation stops at a draft; posting is a deliberate click by a person.

  • EU hosting or on-premise, a data processing agreement, minimal personal data, and no customer data used to train public AI models.

Questions we hear a lot

A short, fixed-scope engagement where we map how work flows through sales, purchasing and back office, time the steps, and hand you a ranked list of what is worth automating. It is useful on its own, even if you never automate anything with us.

No. We work next to the tools you already use, such as Outlook, Excel and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The automation drafts entries; your team approves and posts them.

No. Every quote, tariff code, origin claim and declaration is a proposal until a named person approves it, and every step is logged.

Either on EU servers that we manage, or on a server in your own building. With the on-premise option, documents never leave your network, and a local language model can be used.

We started with electronics and industrial-parts distributors because the RFQ-to-quote and import workflows are so similar between them. The scan itself works for any SME with a lot of manual back-office work.

English and Dutch, with German for clients in Germany.
