About demi

The AI operating system for European industry.

Europe's manufacturers, from 50 to 5,000 people, run on knowledge trapped in PDFs, ERP systems, and the heads of people about to retire. demi turns it into action: answering technical inquiries, finding customers, and doing the daily commercial work, then becoming the operating brain of the whole company.

A company's knowledge, assembled into one working system.

We come from these companies: family-run factories, shop floors, and the IT teams of machine builders and component suppliers. We've seen the gap between AI shipping out of San Francisco and the reality of European industry. demi exists to close it.

Why now

A generation of expert knowledge retires this decade.

AI can finally read the documents that knowledge lives in.

Europe wants its industrial data to stay in Europe.

Our vision

demi today is the AI Commercial Operating System - outreach, account intelligence, qualification, and the daily commercial work small teams can't keep up with on their own.

That's the entry point, not the destination. Every Mittelstand company sits on irreplaceable knowledge: about its products, processes, suppliers, customers, and the machines on its shop floor. Most of it is locked in PDFs, ERP records, mailboxes, and the heads of senior staff who'll retire in the next decade. demi's trajectory is to become the AI-native knowledge layer that holds all of it - a knowledge brain any role in the company can query, operate, and act on.

Europe's industrial Mittelstand built the last great manufacturing era. We're here to make sure it leads the next one.
