The knowledge is there. Just not when you need it.

How we start

One day at your office, and your paper is searchable.

Before your team can ask the archive, the files have to be readable. That is where we start, at a fixed price.

Storage
Your computer, no cloudOn your network drive or a computer of your choice, plus a copy on a USB drive for you.
Price
€990for the first 20 customers in return for a short reference, then €1,490
Guarantee
Searchable by the eveningOtherwise I come back for half a day free of charge.

Final prices: no VAT is added (§ 19 UStG, small-business rule). Each further day €1,490, agreed as a fixed price beforehand.

Two more packages are on the pricing page

Possible afterwards, but not part of this package: the archive your team asks in plain language, as in the demo above. I give you its price beforehand as a fixed price.

Book an intro call

In the intro call I tell you whether one day is enough. On site with no travel costs in Brandenburg an der Havel, Potsdam and Berlin, other places by arrangement.

Process

Three steps to an archive that answers.

  1. 30 minutes · free

    Intro call

    You tell me where things get searched for. I tell you honestly whether an archive is worth it.

  2. One day · fixed price

    Scanning day

    I make your paper searchable on site. In the evening we search together on your computer.

  3. If you want it

    Your archive to ask

    Your team asks in plain language, every answer with its source.

    Can grow later: more drives, onboarding new colleagues, reports on your figures.

You talk to me directly.

I'm Martin Haferanke, a software developer from Brandenburg an der Havel. I advise on, build and look after your archive myself, with no sales team and no subcontractors. If a project won't pay off for you, I tell you before it costs money.

Questions before the intro call

What does it cost?

You start with the scanning day: €990 for the first 20 customers in return for a short reference, then €1,490 per day. I quote the archive you can ask as a fixed price afterwards, so you know it up front. I run it for €149 a month if you want. Final prices, no VAT added (§ 19 UStG). All packages are on the pricing page.

Do we need our own servers?

No. The archive runs on servers in Germany or, if you prefer, on your own hardware on site. We work out what fits in the intro call.

What happens to our data?

Your archive sits at Hetzner in Germany or in your building, and it belongs to you. The language model that words the answers runs at a provider in Berlin, or on your premises if you prefer. Before we start, we sign a data processing agreement. In detail: GDPR-Compliant AI: Keeping Your Data In-House.

Does my team have to learn anything?

Hardly. You ask in plain language, as you would ask a colleague. At the start we try it together on your computer. How the principle works: Searchable Company Knowledge: Answers With a Source.

How is this different from ChatGPT?

ChatGPT does not know your documents. Your archive answers only from your own files, shows the passage and says so when it finds nothing. How I go about it: AI Consulting for Mid-Sized Companies: Process & Pricing.

What if we want to stop?

Then we stop. The files from the scanning day are with you as PDF documents anyway. For the archive you get everything back in open formats, and I confirm the deletion in writing.
