One of the questions we’re asked most often is: How much does an AI solution from Vimmera AI cost?

Our honest answer is: We can only give you a reliable answer once we know your company and your requirements.

That’s because Vimmera AI doesn’t offer off-the-shelf solutions. We develop and operate AI systems tailored to your processes, goals, and quality requirements. We’re not talking about just any standard chatbot or generic applications, but solutions that work reliably in your company and deliver tangible benefits.

While we do have proven approaches and existing building blocks, these too are generally adapted to the specific requirements. Every company has its own structures, processes, and domain-specific requirements and constraints. That’s exactly why purely standard solutions often hit their limits in practice: they require companies to adapt and involve unnecessary compromises.

We take a different approach. AI should fit into your company, not force your company to fit the logic of a predefined solution. This requires a thorough understanding of your starting point. The necessary adjustments are generally manageable, but are crucial to ensuring that the solution can be used productively, economically, and appropriately.

That’s why every collaboration with us starts with a personal conversation.

Is AI cost-effective to use in a company?

The costs of artificial intelligence must never be considered separately from its benefits. Of course, AI requires investment in implementation, integration, and ongoing operation. What matters, however, is the added value it creates for your company. When processing times are reduced, processes become more stable, employees’ workloads are reduced, and existing knowledge can be used more quickly and effectively, the resulting productivity gains often far outweigh the investment.

That’s exactly why, before getting started, we at Vimmera AI work with you to assess where tangible benefits can be achieved, which economic effects are realistic, and when using AI will actually pay off for your company. This gives you a sound, transparent basis for making a decision from the outset.

Why we need to understand your processes

Professional AI needs to know how your company works, what processes are in place, which information is authoritative, which rules must be followed, and what level of quality is expected.

We don’t want AI that gives just any answer.
We want AI that is 100% accurate, explainable, and reliable.

To achieve this, we need to clarify together:

• What tasks should the AI take on?
• Which processes should be supported or automated?
• Which data and knowledge need to be incorporated?
• Which systems need to be integrated?
• Which security, data protection, and compliance requirements apply?
• What level of response quality is expected?

Only once these questions have been answered can we reliably determine what technology is needed, how much computing power is required, and how much effort will be involved in setup, maintenance, and operation.

No artificially short meetings

Vimmera AI deliberately doesn’t offer 15-minute introductory calls or one-size-fits-all analysis sessions. AI isn’t a small add-on; it’s a strategic tool. We take the time needed—and make our own processes as efficient as possible.

The clearer your goal, the faster we can make progress. But we don’t promise unrealistic shortcuts that could lead to poor quality or bad decisions later on.

What goes into the price?

The cost of a solution typically consists of several components:

• Consulting and analysis
• Data collection and digitization
• Data preparation and verification
• System architecture and model selection
• Security, interfaces, and user management
• AI operation (LLMs, computing power, storage, electricity)
• Ongoing support, maintenance, and further development

With Vimmera AI, you can get everything from a single source—or choose only specific components. This also affects the price.

We clearly show where work is required, how long it takes, and what costs result from it. You won’t get a black box, but a clearly itemized quote.

Usage instead of flat rates

Many components of an AI solution—especially the use of AI models—are billed according to usage. AI requires computing power and energy. A system that is used little will cost less than one that is used thousands of times a day.

We charge fixed hourly rates for project work and clearly defined flat rates or usage-based prices for LLMs, computing power, and system operation.

A realistic example

In practice, one thing becomes clear time and again:
A well-implemented AI system can take on tasks that would otherwise be handled by employees—for example, in customer service, technical support, or internal inquiries.

Consider this example:
An experienced customer service employee can quickly cost a company a high five-figure or even six-figure sum per year, including salary, additional costs, workspace, absences, and training.

An AI system that supports or partially takes over this work at a comparable level of expertise generally costs only about 20% of that amount.
That means around 80% of the costs can be saved or redirected to higher-value tasks.

In many companies, this frees up entire person-years of working time—not to replace people, but to deploy them where they’re truly needed: handling complex cases, building customer relationships, driving innovation, or ensuring quality.
