GDPR-compliant

Processed in the EU, your data is never used for AI training

Does any of this sound familiar ?

These six sentences come up in almost every conversation we have with engineering managers. None of them need to be true in 2026.

If you are an engineering manager, CTO, or technical CEO: you recognise at least three of them.

Knowledge loss

When your most experienced engineer retires, three decades of project knowledge go with them. Almost none of it is documented.

Reporting work

You hired your engineers to engineer. On Fridays they write reports, meeting minutes, and status slides.

Click for image and details →

Requests and changes

Technical requests and change orders reach the right colleague. They get answered when day-to-day operations allow it. Which is often too late.

Searching instead of finding

Requirements specs, meeting minutes, lessons learned: spread across five systems. What gets found is what someone happens to remember. Mistakes repeat themselves.

Manual research

Standards, patents, competitors: every research effort starts from scratch, and nobody knows whether it is complete.

Falling behind

While you are still checking whether AI is safe with your data, your competitor is already automating their development. The safety question has long been solvable: GDPR-compliant, hosted in the EU.

From Chaos to Control

Every solution pays into the three accounts by which engineering is measured: quality, cost, timing.

Before

Before: Manual process

Replies get written between two meetings

  • Every request is read, categorised, and forwarded manually.
  • The handler searches for project status, similar cases, and old emails.
  • The reply gets written between two meetings — or simply does not happen.
After

After: Agent supports

Replies the same day

  • An agent reads and classifies incoming requests.
  • It gathers context from your systems and drafts a reply.
  • Your engineer reviews and approves.
  • Every answered request flows into your lessons-learned database.
Replies the same day instead of days later. Account: timing and cost.

Ten minutes is usually enough to find similar potential in your processes.

The smallest sensible start: a pilot

You do not need to believe in a large project to get started. We take one single process that costs you time every week and automate it. Fixed price, clear timeline, defined outcome. Then you decide whether more follows. And if the pilot shows that AI brings nothing for your case, you will know that too. Then this insight cost you exactly one pilot, not an annual budget.

  • One process, chosen by you
  • Fixed price 4,900 euros, 4-week timeline
  • Your data stays in the EU, GDPR-compliant
Discuss your pilot with me

Free, 15 minutes, no sales pitch.

Three paths, one goal: faster engineering

All modules are freely combinable, depending on what you need.

Training

Your team uses AI in everyday engineering work, instead of debating it.

Hands-on, based on your own tasks, in the language of engineers.

  • Reports, research, and documentation in significantly less time.
  • Managers who can make AI decisions without going on gut feel.
  • Engineers who build their own small analysis tools instead of waiting for IT.

Training

  • AI in Leadership
  • Introduction to generative AI in engineering
  • Copilot in daily engineering work
  • Vibe Coding for engineers
  • AI agents in product development

Consulting

You know where AI saves money in your engineering. Before you invest.

We determine your starting point and show you the path, instead of selling you the next tool.

  • A clear picture of your biggest levers, in weeks rather than months.
  • A decision based on your processes and data, not on hype.
  • A roadmap that your team also understands and supports.

About us

20 years of product development. No armchair consultant.

Holger Peschke, Gründer AI.mation

Two worlds in one person.
No translation needed.

You know the problem with consultants: some understand AI but not your development processes. Others know your world but bring someone else in for AI. With me you get both in one person.

For 20 years I worked in product development myself and led teams. I know where time is really lost in an engineering department, because I sat in exactly those places myself: in project reviews, in change loops, searching for that one report from three years ago. And AI has been my passion for years, not just since the hype. That combination is AImation: I translate between your engineering world and the AI world. You do not need an interpreter in between.

Who I am in 5 sentences

20 years as an engineering leader in industry.

I know your processes, not from books, but because I lived them myself.

If AI does not make sense for you, I will tell you that. Even if it costs me the project.

Doing instead of talking: solutions that run next week, not next quarter.

20 years have taught me one thing: the simplest solution that actually works is always the best.

Unternehmensdaten und Fakten zu AImation UG

Why AI.mation?

Not yet another AI consultancy

We build AI solutions. And we tell you when you do not need one.

Practice, not theory

Shop floor to boardroom

I spent years inside engineering departments of manufacturing companies myself, from the project room to the management level. Which problems actually cause pain, I know from my own experience, not from a study.

Honest, even when uncomfortable

If AI does not help, we say so

I look at your processes. Sometimes the answer is: AI is the wrong call here. That occasionally costs me a project. I say it anyway.

Fast and affordable

Built for SMEs, not corporations

Corporate prices are out of the question. So are projects that drag on forever. What matters: does it run next week? Usually yes.

3 pillars, 1 partner

Three pillars, one contact

Consulting, training, implementation, all under one roof. No coordination overhead between three vendors. One call is enough.

Starts with an AI Readiness Check

In 2 days you will know where you stand. We look at your engineering processes, assess what is already working, and calculate what can realistically be achieved. No sales pitch, no filler.
