Overview
For small businesses, AI is no longer a toy but a practical tool — when you use it in the right place. A chatbot that answers the same questions at night, an assistant that pre-sorts inquiries, a search that instantly shows customers the right thing: that saves time and improves service without adding staff.

At Rhein Code in Düsseldorf, we build AI solutions that fit the real workflows of small and medium businesses in Germany. No hype, just concrete helpers: an AI chatbot for your website that answers only from your own content, or a smart assistant that takes recurring work off your team's hands.
What matters to us is honesty about what AI can and cannot do. We build solutions that are reliable within their limits, rather than promises that fail in everyday use. At a fixed price from 1,900 € net, GDPR-compliant and accessible (WCAG 2.1 AA), on EU servers, with no lock-in to a single provider.
Sound familiar?
- The same customer questions tie up your team again and again
- Big AI providers are expensive, opaque and privacy-critical
- You don't know where AI actually helps in your business
Your AI assistant
Answers from your own content – and a person when it matters
The assistant answers the same recurring questions around the clock, in German or English, and names the source in your own content. When things get complex or sensitive, it hands over to your team instead of making something up. And it says openly that it is an AI – as the EU AI Act requires.
What we build with AI for you
- Customer-service chatbot based on your own content/documents
- WhatsApp or website assistant for enquiries and appointments
- Automatic text generation, summaries, classification
- GDPR-compliant: EU hosting, clear data control
AI Solutions & Chatbots
What your website or solution delivers
A chatbot that answers only from your content
We set the bot up to answer based on your website, FAQs and documents — not the open internet. That keeps answers accurate, on-brand and traceable.
24/7 answers to the same recurring questions
Opening hours, prices, directions, availability: the chatbot handles these standard questions around the clock. Your team is relieved and customers get an answer immediately.
Handover to a human when needed
For complex or sensitive matters the bot hands off cleanly to you instead of inventing something. You keep control over the conversations that matter.
Multilingual assistant (DE/EN)
The bot answers automatically in the visitor's language — German or English. Ideal for businesses with international customers in Germany.
Capture and qualify leads
The assistant asks the right questions, collects contact details and passes qualified inquiries on to you. A website visit turns into a usable contact.
Smart search and recommendations
Customers find the right product, service or article in seconds. Instead of clicking through menus, they simply ask in their own words.
Create text and content more efficiently
We set up AI-assisted tools that help your team write product descriptions, replies or summaries. You always keep the final say.
GDPR-compliant operation on EU servers
We configure the AI so personal data is processed sparingly and on EU infrastructure. Privacy notices and consents are handled cleanly.
Examples
Typical scenarios
Example 1/4
A service provider whose inbox is full of standard questions
The same questions about prices and process arrive daily and cost hours. A chatbot answers them right on the website and passes only the real inquiries on.
Example 2/4
An online shop where customers can't find the right thing
Visitors bounce because they don't discover the right product. A smart search understands their words and guides them straight to the right item.
Example 3/4
A business with international walk-in customers
Inquiries come in German and English, but the team can't cover every language. A multilingual assistant answers everyone in their own language.
Example 4/4
A small team drowning in routine text
Product descriptions, replies and summaries eat a lot of time. AI tools deliver a draft the team only has to review and approve.
Rhein Code
Why Rhein Code for AI Solutions & Chatbots
Honest about the limits of AI
We don't promise miracles; we build what works reliably in daily use. You get a helper that delivers what it promises, not a risky black box.
A fixed price, not unpredictable tokens
You know from the start what the solution costs — from 1,900 € net. Clearly scoped rather than an open bill.
Answers only from your sources
We tie the bot to your content so it doesn't make things up freely. That sharply lowers the risk of false statements.
GDPR & accessibility built in
With AI, data protection is delicate in Germany — we build data-sparingly and accessibly from the start. Data protection is part of the design, not an afterthought.
Direct line to the developer in two languages
You talk to the person building your AI, in German or English. Adjustments are fast and direct.
No lock-in to an AI provider
We set the solution up so the underlying AI service stays replaceable. You're never permanently chained to one model or vendor.

Frequently asked questions
What does an AI solution cost at Rhein Code?
An AI solution or chatbot starts at 1,900 € net (plus 19% VAT) as a fixed price. The final figure depends on scope — for example how much content is embedded and which systems are connected.
Does the chatbot make up answers?
We tie the bot to your own content, so it answers from your sources rather than inventing things. When it doesn't know something, it admits it or hands off to a human instead of guessing.
Is using AI GDPR-compliant?
Yes, we configure the solution data-sparingly and on EU infrastructure and account for privacy notices and consents. That keeps the deployment legally clean in Germany.
Can the bot speak multiple languages?
Yes, it answers automatically in German and English depending on the language the visitor writes in. That's especially useful for businesses with international customers.
How long does implementation take?
A focused chatbot is often live within two to four weeks, depending on how much content needs to be embedded. We start with a clear knowledge base and expand it step by step.
Can we update the bot's content ourselves?
Yes, we set the solution up so you can maintain the knowledge base without coding skills. If prices or services change, you update it yourself.
Are we locked into a particular AI provider?
No, we build the solution so the underlying AI service stays replaceable. There's no lock-in to a single model or vendor.
Do you handle maintenance too?
On request we support the AI solution on an ongoing basis and adjust it when your content or requirements change. You're not obliged to, though.
