AI & automation for businessAI & AUTOMATION

AI & Automation for Business

From use case to production system: we pinpoint where AI and automation deliver real return, then implement it —agents, system-to-system integrations, and custom copilots— with the data control and governance a business demands.

Why do you need AI & Automation for Business?

Your team loses hours every week on repetitive work: copying data between systems, generating reports, answering the same questions again and again

You've tried ChatGPT or an AI pilot, but nothing reached production or connected to your systems

You're unsure which processes to automate first or how to measure the return on investment

You worry about adopting AI without control: sensitive data, made-up answers, and compliance (GDPR, EU AI Act)

What makes us different

Four pillars that apply to every service and every solution, not a one-off slogan.

Offensive + defensive + AI

The same team that attacks in the pentest runs the SOC and builds the AI models. Offensive insight informs defense, and AI is applied where we already operate, not bolted on as an extra layer.

Compliance in weeks, not months

HodeiShield, our own platform, automates continuous assessment, control mapping, and evidence generation — so manual work no longer sets the pace of regulatory compliance.

Sovereignty and proximity

Infrastructure on OVHcloud (France/EU). You speak with the people who sign off on the work, not an account manager who forwards your request to another department.

Our own product

HodeiShield isn't a third-party product we resell: we build and operate it ourselves, and that's what lets us offer faster compliance and evidence that's always current.

What's included

Deliverables and results you will receive with this service.

Automation Discovery & Roadmap

We map your processes, spot automation candidates, and prioritize them by return and effort. You leave with a clear plan, not a wish list.

Custom AI Agents & Copilots

Internal assistants that answer over your documentation (RAG), draft and classify content, wired to your real sources of information.

Process Automation & Integrations

Flows that connect your systems (ERP, CRM, email, office tools) with n8n, APIs, and webhooks to remove manual work between tools.

Intelligent Document Automation

Extraction, classification, and generation of documents: invoices, contracts, reports, and replies, with human review where it matters.

AI Governance, Security & Compliance

Guardrails, data control, traceability, and alignment with GDPR and the EU AI Act. AI you can audit and defend to leadership and regulators.

Production Rollout & Continuous Improvement

Deployment, monitoring, and support: we measure real impact, iterate, and expand to new processes once the first one pays off.

Methodology

Discovery, execution, delivery, and follow-up — the framework we follow on every project.

Discovery

Discovery

We map your processes and choose the first use case by impact and feasibility, not hype, with a clear plan of what to automate first.

Execution

Execution

We design the flow, models, and integrations, and build a measurable pilot with agreed success metrics before scaling anything.

Delivery

Delivery

We turn the pilot into a robust solution, connected to your real systems and ready for the team's daily use, with data guardrails active.

Follow-up

Follow-up

We monitor real impact, tune the flow based on daily use, and expand to new processes once the first one is paying off.

How we work

Structured methodology to ensure measurable and repeatable results.

1

Discovery and Prioritization

We understand your processes and goals, and choose the first use case by impact and feasibility, not hype.

2

Solution Design and Architecture

We define the flow, models, integrations, and data-control measures before writing a line of code.

3

Measurable Pilot

We build a real proof of concept with agreed success metrics, validating return with data, not promises.

4

Implementation and Integration

We turn the pilot into a robust solution, connected to your systems and ready for the team's daily use.

5

Production and Continuous Improvement

We deploy, monitor, and tune. With the first process paying off, we expand to the next.

Operational example

A real scenario of how we work, not a marketing figure.

The admin team receives every vendor invoice by email and keys it into the ERP by hand. The agent extracts the key fields from the PDF, validates them against the purchase order, and leaves the invoice pre-loaded in the ERP for a person to review and approve — the mechanical work disappears, the decision stays human.

Is it for your company?

This service is designed for organizations that identify with these profiles.

Companies with manual-heavy processes in operations, back-office, or customer support
Teams that piloted AI and want to take it to production safely
Regulated organizations that need AI with data control and compliance
SMEs and mid-market firms that want to scale without growing headcount at the same rate

Compared to a generalist integrator

Regulatory compliance

How what this service already includes relates to NIS2, DORA, and the AI Act — article by article, with no invented coverage.

  • Framework
    AI Act
    Article
    Art. 15
    What it requires
    Ensure the accuracy, robustness and cybersecurity of high-risk AI systems throughout their lifecycle.
    How this service helps
    The AI Governance, Security & Compliance block adds guardrails, data control, and traceability aligned with the EU AI Act — the documentary base to support the robustness and cybersecurity Article 15 asks for, not a compliance certification.

Informational mapping, not legal advice: it describes how what we already do in this service helps comply with or provides evidence for each article — it doesn't replace a compliance assessment tailored to your organization.

Frequently asked questions

What's your response SLA?
First response within 24 business hours of reaching out. If what you need is an exposure assessment, we deliver it in full within 48 business hours.
How soon do I see results?
A measurable pilot is typically ready in 3–6 weeks. Moving to production depends on scope and integrations, but the first use case is designed to prove return quickly.
What tools do you work with?
n8n, APIs, LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or open models), and your current stack (ERP, CRM, office tools). We prioritize integrating with what you have, not replacing it.
Does my data end up inside the AI models?
No. We design for data control: private or no-retention deployment options, RAG over your own knowledge base, and alignment with GDPR and the EU AI Act.
Do I need perfect data to start?
No. Discovery includes preparing the minimum viable data for the first use case; you don't need a full data project before seeing value.
How is an automation project priced?
We don't publish a fixed rate: it depends on the number of processes and integrations to automate. After the initial discovery, you receive a proposal with defined scope and price before you commit.
How are you different from a generalist integrator?
A generalist integrator often ships fragile automations with no data control; at Hodeitek we orchestrate with n8n self-hosted in the EU and design with AI governance from the first flow, with direct access to the founders.
Does AI automation change by sector?
The data-governance approach — n8n self-hosted in the EU, no data sent to third parties — is the same across sectors, but the use case changes: in industry we automate maintenance flows and OT alerts; in financial services and the public sector, flows are documented for DORA/ENS audits; for SMEs, the goal is usually freeing up hours for a small team on repetitive back-office tasks.
