Better decisions. New digital business models
through data and AI.

We help industrial companies translate reliable data into measurable results:

  • Operational excellence

    Data-driven, measurable optimization of industrial processes and the core business.

  • Scalable growth

    Developing and monetizing data-driven products and business models.

The start determines the success that follows.

You want to use AI sensibly, but the right strategy, data foundation and roadmap are still missing?

Reports, dashboards and data sources already exist. At the same time, it remains unclear which use cases truly make sense first, how the data should be organized for them, and what a reliable roadmap for adoption, prioritization and delivery looks like.

This is where LYN Intelligence comes in. We forge strategy, data foundation and approach into a reliable roadmap with clear economic relevance and lasting impact.

The sensible entry point

Your AI & Data
Strategy Sprint

If you want to start with AI but don't yet know where the biggest lever lies, a structured entry point is the most important first step.

Step 1

Clarify goals & use cases

We identify the AI use cases that are concretely economically relevant for your company.

Step 2

Assess your data situation

We check which data is usable, where quality problems exist and which prerequisites for reliable AI are missing.

Step 3

Define the roadmap

You receive a clear implementation plan: prioritized use cases, technical requirements and realistic next steps.

Step 4

Investment-ready decision basis

You get a solid basis for decisions, including effort, benefit, risks and a recommendation for the rollout.

Funding in NRW

Funded data & AI architecture, from strategy to delivery

Minimize your investment risk. We deliver your transformation from a single source, using two complementary funding paths: one for the concept, one for the implementation.

1Strategy & concept

BAFA business consulting ↗

Analysis, data strategy and architecture roadmap for your single point of truth. The conceptual foundation that secures your considerably larger implementation investment. Vendor-independent.

Funding rate50%
Grantup to €1,750
2Implementation

MID digitalization (NRW.Bank) ↗

Development of value-creating AI applications and market-ready digital products. The product-oriented realization of your architecture.

Funding rate50%
Grantup to €15,000
The most expensive mistake is timing: Both applications must be submitted and approved before the project starts. Plan for 8 to 12 weeks of lead time. We support you throughout the application process.

Both programs are subject to a ban on double funding: the same service cannot be funded twice. Concept (BAFA) and implementation (MID) must be clearly separate measures. MID digitalization is awarded through a monthly lottery procedure, requires a market-ready digital product and provides for a minimum grant of €4,000. A prerequisite for BAFA funding is a registered consultant. Eligibility is assessed on a case-by-case basis; a funding commitment is not guaranteed. As of 2026, all information without guarantee.

Typical first use cases

Your ROI
in focus

Not every use case is a good place to start. We help you begin where data, benefit and feasibility align.

KPIs in natural language

Business units and management can grasp relevant figures, deviations and correlations faster, without depending on individual reports.

Typical result Noticeably faster answers to KPI questions, without a bottleneck in controlling.

AI agents for internal knowledge

Documentation, guidelines and internal knowledge become faster and more precisely accessible for employees.

Typical result Specialist questions get answered in minutes instead of lengthy research.

Reliable foundation for reporting & AI

Different data sources are structured so that reporting, steering and AI work on the same reliable foundation.

Typical result Single Point of Truth across 5 to 8 sources, one consistent steering model.

Where we see the greatest impact

Where decisions
need to get better through data

Our work is especially effective in environments where data is not only analyzed, but reliably organized and translated into operational or management-relevant decisions.

Reporting in place, AI missing

When reporting exists but AI is not yet sensibly connected. Or when business units need to work faster and more confidently with enterprise data.

Translating operational data into decisions

When transparency, data quality and decisions are operationally relevant, e.g. in the context of reporting, single point of truth and AI-supported steering.

Making internal knowledge securely accessible

When documentation, internal knowledge and business logic should be made faster, more precisely and more securely accessible for teams.

Frequently asked questions

What companies usually want to know
before they start

Especially at the beginning, similar questions come up: about the data foundation, sensible first use cases, and how AI interest turns into a realistic implementation plan.

Does our data already have to be perfectly organized?

No. In many cases, structuring the data foundation is precisely part of the sensible entry point.

What are sensible first AI use cases?

That depends on your data situation, decision logic and business-unit needs. That's exactly what we clarify in the Strategy Sprint.

Do you also support adoption and implementation?

Yes. We support you from strategy and target picture through pilot, adoption and productive use.

Is the implementation GDPR-compliant? And does our data remain sovereign?

GDPR compliance and data security are an integral part of the entire solution. Your data remains under your control and is processed transparently, traceably and securely.

Is this only relevant for large companies?

No. Data-intensive mid-sized companies in particular benefit when reporting, data foundation and AI are sensibly brought together.
