## About this market
Automation is the German category with the most visible pricing: most firms here publish an hourly band, which is rare in this register and useful, because they are not selling the same thing. At one end, custom builds against your own data. Lazy Ants in Frankfurt publishes two production workflows with their failure modes named, including supplier price sheets in inconsistent formats parsed into a live pricing workflow behind a verify-before-commit gate, with manual prep down by up to 75% and nothing going live without human confirmation. appleute in Munich runs an image-classification agent detecting road damage in production at a stated 95% detection accuracy with a published 30% cut in maintenance cost. At the other end are configuration and licensing: schalk&friends switches on personalization inside a customer-data platform, and WIANCO OTT Robotics near Darmstadt licenses EMMA, which automates across systems without APIs or scripted bots and sells mainly through implementation partners. Qemie, KI Agentur FAI and coompanion serve the Mittelstand, kiba solutions puts an engineer inside the client's team, and TechNow sells automation beside managed IT.

Published rates run €20-40 to €130-175, and that spread reflects what is being sold rather than quality: a licensed platform, a configured workflow and a custom build do not price alike. Decide which of the three you want before comparing quotes. Then read the percentages closely, because every figure here is the agency's own. Lazy Ants states its reductions as up to, and admits that infrastructure cost was never the metric it tracked despite naming a case around cost control. Hold the others to that standard. Ask what the baseline was, who measured it, and what the system does at low confidence.
