Start-up Check: How these start-ups make AI practical for medium-sized businesses

Start-ups Amber and Paretos are addressing concerns about the reliability of generative AI in business decision-making by adding a context layer between company data and language models. This layer aims to provide accurate results by correctly contextualizing technical terms, numbers, and decisions. Amber has secured clients such as Creditreform, Ritter Sport, and Zentis, and has recently received €7 million in investment.

According to Amber's co-founder Bastian Maiworm, only 4% of German medium-sized enterprises use GenAI company-wide, compared to 58% of Fortune-500 companies. Amber was founded in 2021 by Maiworm, Philipp Reißel, and Igli Manaj in Aachen.
