Life sciences, trade and a border region
Basel is known worldwide as a centre for pharmaceuticals, chemistry and biotech. Around the large companies works a broad network of suppliers: laboratories, engineering firms, contract manufacturers, logistics and IT service providers, consultancies and specialised trades. The city is also a hub for trade and transport, with its Rhine port, its trade fairs and its close links to Alsace and southern Baden.
Typical needs of SMEs in the Basel region
- Suppliers to the life sciences: an internal knowledge assistant that answers questions from SOPs, specifications and quality documents, always showing the source passage.
- Logistics and trading firms: delivery notes, invoices and customs-related documents from Switzerland, France and Germany read and prepared for your ERP.
- Management of any SME: weekly reports on orders, stock or projects written automatically from your data, ready on Monday morning.
Regulated work needs traceable answers
In life sciences and related industries, an answer is only useful if you can check where it comes from. Our knowledge assistants cite the document and passage behind every answer, and people approve what the AI prepares before it is used. If your environment has formal validation or documentation requirements, we discuss them at the start of the project rather than at the end.
German at the core, French and English next door
Basel works in German, with its own dialect in everyday life. Yet French is never far away, cross-border staff and suppliers bring documents in French and German from the EU, and English is the working language in many research and corporate teams. Our solutions read and write German, French, Italian and English, so a French supplier invoice or an English report is handled just like a German one.
Public administration in a city canton
Basel-Stadt is a city canton, so cantonal and municipal tasks are closely linked and administration is close to residents and businesses. Recurring enquiries, applications and forms take up a lot of time. AI can prepare answers, pre-sort incoming requests and extract data from documents, while decisions stay with your staff. Hosting in Switzerland is available on request, and your data is not used to train AI models.
How we work with clients in Basel
We work mostly remotely, by video call and with shared test environments, which keeps projects efficient. When it helps, for example for a workshop to map a process or to train your team, we come to you in the Basel region.
