ABOUT US

We unlock the potential hidden in your processes.

Since 2017, we've been helping companies work smarter. Not with more tools, but with AI solutions that feel like they've always belonged. We come from practice ourselves, we know the challenges - and we stay by your side until it really works.

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're not strategy consultants who disappear after the presentation. We're the team that builds, tests, and launches your solution. That designs systems that work, and trains AI models that solve real problems.

Our success is measured by whether your solution runs productively - not by how good the concept document looks.

For SMEs who need real partners. Not presentations, but working solutions.

WHAT SETS US APART

Why schnell.digital?

Many talk about AI. Few implement it. And even fewer are still reachable afterward.

From practice, for practice

We're software developers who've been implementing AI projects since 2017 - not consultants who deliver PowerPoints and move on.

Your language, not ours

Your departments describe processes in their own words. No code, no BPMN, no prompt engineering required.

Support beyond the project

We don't hand over documentation and disappear. Maintenance, support, and evolution are part of our offering.

FOUNDER

Patrick Schnell

Portrait of Patrick Schnell

If digitalization was the bicycle, AI can be the car for teams - but only if someone installs the engine properly.

I founded schnell.digital in 2017 in Augsburg - as a software developer who was tired of seeing digitalization projects in SMEs fail at the same points: planned too complex, not enough focus on practice, left alone too early.

Since 2020, our focus has been on AI-powered process automation. Not because AI is trendy, but because we've seen that this is where the biggest lever is: recurring tasks that slow teams down can be almost completely automated with the right solutions.

What drives me: The moment when a system goes live and a team suddenly realizes - this actually works. That's why we do what we do.

OUR VALUES

What we measure ourselves by

Results-driven, not hype-driven

We deploy AI where it creates real value - not where it impresses.

Pragmatic, not perfectionist

Better a solution that works today than one that might be perfect in six months.

Reliable, not boastful

We only promise what we can deliver. If something doesn't work, we tell you - before you notice.

Data protection as a prerequisite

EU hosting, GDPR-compliant, on-premise possible. Your data belongs to you - no compromises.
