AI Consulting for SMEs
We show you where artificial intelligence genuinely saves time and money in your company – with a clear roadmap, measurable KPIs and implementation from a single source.
Why AI consulting with NovaCon?
Consulting that doesn't end in a slide deck, but in AI that works
Use cases with real ROI
We prioritise only the AI use cases that measurably save time or costs in your company – instead of expensive prestige projects.
A clear AI roadmap
You receive a concrete plan with priorities, efforts and milestones – from a quick pilot project to a company-wide AI strategy.
GDPR & EU AI Act
Data protection built in from the start: hosting on German servers, no data flowing to the USA, documented compliance with GDPR and the AI Act.
Implementation from a single source
We don't just advise, we build: chatbots, automations and AI agents are developed and integrated directly by our team.
Team enablement
We empower your staff with training and guidelines so that AI takes hold in daily work and doesn't fizzle out after the project.
Measurable results
Every AI use case gets predefined KPIs. After go-live we measure success continuously and keep optimising.
What does AI consulting deliver for SMEs?
AI consulting shows your company exactly where artificial intelligence saves time and costs – and how to implement it in a GDPR-compliant way. Instead of expensive experiments, we first identify the use cases with the highest value, prioritise them in a roadmap and then implement them. That turns the abstract topic of “AI for companies” into a tangible plan with measurable results.
Many mid-sized companies don't fail because of the technology, but because of the question of where to even start. This is exactly where NovaCon comes in: we're not a pure report-writing consultancy, but a team that also builds the solutions itself. That keeps the path from strategy to a running application seamless – whoever designs an AI solution with us can also have us build it.
Typical entry points are an AI chatbot for customer service, the automation of recurring processes or the setup of autonomous AI agents that handle several work steps on their own. We clarify which use case is right for you during the consultation – based on your processes, not on a sales brochure.
Who is our AI consulting for?
Our consulting is aimed at small and medium-sized companies without their own data science team. Common starting points are overloaded support departments, many manual routine tasks, slow quotation or invoicing processes, or simply the wish for a clear AI strategy before investing. Whether trades, retail, services or healthcare – the methodical process stays the same, only the specific use cases differ.
Transparency on costs and process
The first conversation is free and non-binding. A compact potential analysis with prioritised use cases and a roadmap usually sits in the low four-figure range for SMEs, and a first implementable pilot project often starts from a few thousand euros. After the analysis you receive a transparent fixed-price offer – without opaque hourly fees. Data protection is not an afterthought, but part of every recommendation from the outset: hosting in Germany or the EU, no unnecessary data flow, and documented compliance with GDPR and the EU AI Act.
What our AI consulting covers
From the first potential analysis through the AI strategy to GDPR-compliant implementation – we accompany the entire journey to artificial-intelligence consulting that works in everyday practice.
AI potential analysis
A structured review of your processes, data sources and pain points. The result: a prioritised list of concrete AI use cases instead of vague buzzwords.
AI strategy & roadmap
We translate your business goals into a multi-stage AI roadmap with priorities, budgets, responsibilities and a realistic schedule.
Chatbot & voice consulting
From requirements clarification to channel selection: we show where AI chatbots and voice agents noticeably relieve your customer service.
Automation consulting
We identify recurring, rule-based workflows and automate them with AI – from email processing to the complete workflow.
Data protection & compliance
A review of the legal framework for your AI projects with an eye on GDPR, the EU AI Act and industry-specific requirements.
AI agents & integration
Consulting on autonomous AI agents that carry out several steps independently and integrate into your existing systems and data sources.

Frequently asked questions about AI consulting
Costs, process, data protection – the most important answers at a glance
What does AI consulting at NovaCon cost?
The free initial consultation is non-binding. A compact AI potential analysis with prioritised use cases and a roadmap typically sits in the low four-figure range for SMEs; a first implementable pilot project (e.g. a chatbot) usually starts from a few thousand euros. After the analysis you receive a transparent fixed-price offer – no hidden hourly consulting fees.
What does an AI consulting project look like in practice?
In six steps: (1) a free initial consultation, (2) a potential analysis of your processes and data, (3) a prioritised AI roadmap, (4) a fast pilot project with a measurable result, (5) rollout to further departments and (6) enablement of your team. A pilot usually takes four to eight weeks.
Is the AI consulting GDPR-compliant?
Yes. Data protection is part of every recommendation we make. We rely on hosting in Germany or the EU, avoid unnecessary data transfers to third countries and document compliance with GDPR and the EU AI Act. For sensitive industries, local or on-premise models are also possible.
Which companies benefit from AI consulting?
Especially small and medium-sized companies that want to use AI but don't have their own data science team. Typical triggers are overloaded support teams, many manual routine tasks, slow quotation or invoicing processes, or the wish for a clear AI strategy without misinvestments.
What distinguishes AI consulting from pure AI development?
AI consulting first answers the question 'Where does AI actually make a difference?' before development starts. We protect you from investing in the wrong use cases. Since we also implement ourselves, the transition from strategy to a working solution stays seamless – with no break between advisor and builder.
How quickly will we see results?
First prioritised use cases and a roadmap are often available after just two to three weeks. A pilot project typically delivers measurable results after four to eight weeks – such as reduced processing times or a productively running chatbot with defined KPIs.
