Custom Software — as individual as your business
Pipeline, quotes and forecast in one system — built around your sales process instead of a one-size-fits-all cloud. Your data stays in your region, you own the source code, and you do not pay per seat.
The solution is organised into clear working areas. Open an area to see its workflows, the data it needs and the in-depth sub-pages in detail.
Pipeline, forecast and account knowledge form the operational sales base before AI automation.
Deal scoring, CPQ and a sales assistant — they remove click work, never the decision.
This example implementation combines pipeline management, quoting, forecasting and account knowledge in one business application that fits your sales motion — instead of forcing your sales team into a standard product.
A deal board with your real stages, weighted by AI win probability per card.
The module is more than a table view. It models when a deal may move to the next stage, which required details are missing, which next step is open and which risks appear through response behaviour, quote history or missing decision makers.
Configure, price and quote on your pricing logic — with margin in view and approval.
Products, variants, discounts, approval thresholds and contribution margin are represented the way your sales team actually prices. AI can suggest suitable line items, but price, discount and sending remain reviewable.
Committed, best case and AI forecast against target — every number traceable to its deal.
Forecast numbers come from pipeline, deal score, quote status, seasonality and confirmed management assumptions. Leadership needs more than a sum; it needs the drivers and uncertainties behind it.
Company, deals, history and an AI summary with source links on one screen.
Account 360 brings together contacts, emails, quotes, documents, tasks and open risks so reps do not search through five systems before a call. The AI summary points to sources instead of free-forming.
Deeply integrated with your existing systems instead of double-keying data.
A custom CRM connects where the process loses money: email history, ERP products and prices, DMS contracts, support tickets, invoice status or inventory data. The leading record stays clear.
EU or on-premise operation, GDPR- and AI-Act-ready — your data stays in your region.
CRM data is sensitive: prices, contracts, margins, customer history and personal communication. Hosting, roles, audit trail, retention and AI approval gates are planned as part of the solution from the start.
The pipeline reflects your actual sales process, not an off-the-shelf template. Each card shows value, owner and an AI win probability with a trend — so the team sees where it pays to push now.
Contact & account 360 is the knowledge layer of the CRM software. Sales reps see contacts, open deals, quotes, documents, tasks, latest communication and an AI summary with source references in one interface. That prepares customer conversations without jumping between email, DMS, ERP and old notes.
Deal scoring learns only from your won and lost deals and shows the factors behind each score — champion, budget, engagement, response time. No industry average, no black box, no training of a foreign model on your data.
The CPQ module produces correctly configured quotes on your pricing logic, shows margin live and suggests line items from comparable deals. Days become hours — and every quote is reviewed and released by a human before it leaves the house.
The sales assistant triages the inbox, detects sentiment and urgency and suggests the next step per deal. Replies are prepared as drafts; the rep reviews, edits and sends. These built-in approvals are exactly what makes the solution AI-Act-conform.
AI is built in wherever it removes click work — never where it would invent facts. Every suggestion is source-grounded, runs in your region and waits for human approval. That keeps the speed without giving up control.
Trained on your history, with visible factors.
Prepared by AI, released by a human.
In your region, with approval gates.
The forecast rolls pipeline, response behaviour and seasonality into a projection for management. Every number traces back to the individual deal — the AI proposes, the sales lead confirms. Reliable numbers without spreadsheet acrobatics.
The CRM solution shows more than a kanban board. It connects real sales work with explainable AI: a team reviews pipeline, quoting, margin and forecast while the software prepares suggestions and holds critical steps for approval.
Which stages, which products and pricing rules, which systems provide data — and where is the best place to start?
Pipeline, contacts, quotes, permissions and interfaces to ERP, email and DMS become the stable foundation.
Contacts and deals from Excel or your legacy CRM are imported, cleaned and de-duplicated — your team keeps its data.
Scoring, CPQ and assistant go live with approval gates; usage, quality and cost are monitored continuously.
Standard CRM from the cloud (such as Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Pipedrive or Zoho) makes sense when an off-the-shelf process is enough and a fast start matters more than an exact fit. Worth knowing: US vendors remain subject to the US CLOUD Act even with EU storage. A custom CRM becomes worth it when sales process, pricing logic, AI on your own data and data sovereignty have to line up exactly. An honest take — including the downsides of building your own.

Instead of a monthly per-user fee, there is a one-time development investment plus maintenance. For growing teams this decouples cost from headcount — beyond a certain size it is cheaper than per-seat licences. We scope the lead time and maintenance transparently up front.
Yes. EU or on-premise operation is part of the design; your data does not leave your region and is not subject to the US CLOUD Act. AI actions have built-in approval gates and logs — the basis for AI-Act conformity.
Yes. Contacts, deals and history are imported, cleaned and de-duplicated. Your team keeps its data and familiar structure without retyping everything.
No. The AI prepares — scores, drafts, suggestions — and routes critical steps to a human for approval. It removes click work, not the decision.
