Alexander Thamm covers the enterprise process end. Three later additions sit across the same split: Pexon Consulting builds document automation on privately hosted models, RedOrbit publishes an on-premises accounting assistant for aero.digital, and coompanion automates operations workflows for Mittelstand companies. The distinction matters more than the shared label. A platform configuration is faster and cheaper to reach and limited to what the vendor supports; a custom build costs more and goes where the vendor cannot. Decide which you are buying before comparing quotes, because the two will not price alike. ## Questions buyers ask ### How much do AI Automation agencies in Munich charge?
