## About this market
Custom AI development in Berlin means smaller teams and deeper specialization than London offers, across a roster that now runs to ten. dida builds computer-vision and natural-language systems for industrial and public-sector processes; Birds on Mars pairs model development with the MLOps to keep it running, including pipeline and monitoring work on AWS; punktum digital embeds deep learning into health and sports products; DAIN Studios covers the enterprise data-platform end. The rest of the bench is applied: Lautmaler builds conversational systems down to NLU and dialog management, Hybrid Heroes ships AI inside mobile and web products including Model Context Protocol integrations, kiba solutions deploys locally hosted systems on client hardware, TechNow implements after its own discovery work, and wegewerk maintains its own AI extensions for the content platforms it builds on. The 2026 additions build at a different weight: Merantix Momentum ships computer vision and generative systems for enterprise and federal clients, Ultra Tendency builds data platforms and MLOps for Brose and Deutsche Telekom, ontolux builds retrieval and semantic search, Contiamo built the Product Text Wizard behind Brax's generative product copy, Limebit works in Bayesian and causal methods on health data, and Context Studios is the newest and smallest, building agents on the Model Context Protocol at published fixed prices.

Only a few agencies here publish rates, and they run from roughly €45/hr at the boutique end to €175/hr for the established firms—a genuinely wide band for one city, so scope carefully. Ask what happens after the proof of concept: the firms here that publish MLOps or hosting work are the ones whose systems tend to survive contact with production.
