WHAT WE DO
Test before choosing
The AI Workshop in Winterthur lets your team test practical tasks with anonymised documents and choose a useful first experiment. Participants leave with a working method and review criteria before buying or building a solution.
01START WITH A REAL TASK
Example to discuss in Winterthur: extract operations from an industrial maintenance sheet. During the workshop, participants use an anonymised sample, write an instruction and compare two outputs against their own reference. The outcome is a decision about usefulness and the checks required, rather than a deployment.

WHY THIS MATTERS HERE · Winterthur
On site in Winterthur, remote across Switzerland
The second city of the canton of Zurich and the former machinery town (Sulzer, Rieter), Winterthur also hosts the head office of a major insurer and the ZHAW university of applied sciences.
Winterthur is the second city of the canton of Zurich and the former capital of machinery: the Sulzer and Rieter halls have become office, school and startup districts, while industrial groups keep development centres there. The city also hosts the head office of a major insurer, a university of applied sciences, the ZHAW, and a fabric of SMEs in mechanics, building technology and IT services working for the whole Zurich region.
Winterthur’s requests are concrete: extracting operations from a maintenance sheet, writing assembly instructions in a controlled vocabulary, preparing answers to claims or underwriting questionnaires, documenting IT procedures for the clients of a service company. The engineers here expect verifiable results, with sources, and a clear separation between what the tool proposes and what the person validates.
Workshops in Winterthur take place on your premises, in Oberwinterthur, Töss, Wülflingen or near the Sulzer site; follow-up reviews run by video call, in German or English, with the prompts and sources kept in a shared file.

QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU START
Before the first conversation
Do participants need prior AI experience?
No. Exercises are adapted to the starting level. A shareable document and a real task are enough to prepare a useful session.
What can we decide after the workshop?
You can select a limited trial, its owner and success criteria. Connecting business systems requires separate scoping.
What format is available in Winterthur?
A half-day or full day depending on the participants and exercises. Location, any travel and scope are agreed before confirmation.
