WHY WE EXIST

What we learned in 75+ projects

In hundreds of conversations with executives and department heads, we hear the same things over and over:

  • „AI projects fail. Budget is gone, nothing is live.“
  • „External consultants deliver concepts, but no working software.“
  • „Internal teams are overloaded. Digitalization doesn't progress.“
  • „Vendors promise a lot and deliver little.“

That's exactly the gap we close.

We build your solution, test it and take it into production. We design systems that work in day-to-day operations and put AI models to work on concrete tasks in your processes. After go-live, we're still there for you.

We measure our success by whether your solution runs productively in day-to-day operations.

For mid-sized companies looking for an implementation partner.

WHAT SETS US APART

Why schnell.digital?

We implement AI projects ourselves and remain your point of contact after go-live.

From practice, for practice

We're software developers and have been implementing AI projects since 2017. What we plan, we build ourselves.

In your language

Your departments describe processes in their own words. Nobody needs programming skills, BPMN or prompt engineering for that.

Support beyond the project

Maintenance, support and further development are part of our offering. We stay with your solution after the project ends.

FOUNDER

Patrick Schnell

„If digitalization was the bicycle, AI can be the car for teams. Provided someone installs the engine properly.“

Patrick Schnell, Founder schnell.digital

I founded schnell.digital in Augsburg in 2017. As a software developer, I had seen too often how digitalization projects in mid-sized companies fail at the same points: planned too complex, too far removed from practice, left alone too early.

Since 2020, we've focused on AI-powered process automation, because that's where we see the biggest lever: recurring tasks that slow teams down can be almost fully automated with the right solutions.

What drives me is the moment a system goes live and a team realizes it really works in their day-to-day.
