Common questions.
Short answers to what business owners ask us most.
01
Working together & cost
What does it cost?
The discovery call is free. For each further stage you get an offer up front with a clear scope and price, and you decide stage by stage. Run & Care is billed monthly. Actual amounts depend on the process; you get a first estimate on the discovery call.
What if the pilot doesn’t save enough time?
You see the measured result next to your baseline. Then you decide whether the solution goes into production or not. There is no obligation to continue.
How big does our business need to be?
We mainly work with owner-led SMEs. What matters is not size, but whether there are recurring processes that regularly cost time.
Do you only work around Zurich?
We are based in the canton of Zurich and focus on businesses in the region. A lot can be done remotely too. Just ask us.
02
Technology & systems
Do we need to replace our software?
No. We connect to the systems you already use, such as accounting, e-mail and calendar. Replacing your core systems is not part of our work.
Which AI do you use?
We are not tied to any provider and choose the model per use case: based on what the task requires and how sensitive the data is.
Do we need our own IT staff?
No. We handle the technical implementation. On your side, we mainly need someone who knows the process and gives feedback during the pilot.
What happens if the AI makes a mistake?
That is why we build in checkpoints. Where mistakes would be costly, a person approves before anything happens. Uncertain cases are flagged instead of being processed silently.
03
Data & operations
Where is our data processed?
That depends on the option chosen: an open model in Switzerland, a leading model under a data processing agreement, or your own infrastructure. You know before we start, and we put it in writing. More on data & hosting
Is our data used to train AI models?
That depends on the provider, the contract and the settings. We clarify it for every solution before we start, document it and, where possible, choose options in which your data is not used for training.
Who looks after it once it runs?
With Run & Care we host, monitor and update the solution, with agreed response times. Your team is trained and has the documentation.
Will AI replace our employees?
That is not what we are after. The goal is for your people to spend less time retyping, searching and chasing, and more time with customers and on skilled work.
Your question isn’t here?
Ask us directly. The discovery call has time for anything you want to know.
