Service:

AI APP Development POC (Web Application / Mobile App)

Short description:

Processing time:

10-15 working days

Price:

CHF 4,800 / One-off

Description:

We develop a custom AI tool for you according to your specifications as a proof-of-concept (POC - functional prototype). The PoC clearly demonstrates the feasibility of your ideas in a real web environment and can serve as a basis for a later productive solution.

What is included:

• Individual AI functionality tailored to your requirements
• Modern web application with professional UX design for optimal usability
• Integration of an AI service or machine learning model
• Connection to relevant data sources or external APIs of your company
• Real-time visualization and output of AI results in the web interface
• Basic authentication and user management functions
• Consideration of data protection and security standards in data processing
• Scalable architecture to facilitate later development into a complete product

Creation process:

• Analysis of your requirements and definition of the concrete AI use case
• Creation of a technical concept and project plan for the PoC
• Setting up the development environment and setting up the basic framework of the web application
• Implementation of AI functionality and integration into the web application
• Regular tests and quality checks (including tests with your sample data)
• Presentation of interim results and gathering feedback
• Deployment of the finished PoC on a test environment and joint final demo
• Discussion of the results and recommendations for possible next steps after the PoC

This is what you get:

• Working prototype of the AI web application (PoC) according to your use case
• Complete source code of the project for free reuse or extension
• Technical documentation (architecture overview, AI features, installation instructions)
• Simple user guide for end users to test the PoC
• Evaluation of the PoC results and findings on the feasibility of the AI solution
• Recommendations for the next steps towards production operation or further development

FAQ:

What is a proof of concept (PoC) and what benefits does it offer?

A proof of concept is a demonstration of the feasibility of an idea. It allows you to test on a small scale whether an AI app development works as planned before making larger investments in a full-fledged product. This is often necessary to convince investors.

Why do you use Java and Vaadin for the web app?

Java is a mature, high-performance technology, and the Vaadin framework enables the rapid development of modern web UIs. We have many years of experience with this tech stack, resulting in a reliable, high-quality solution.

Which AI technologies are used?

It depends on your use case. Options include existing AI services (such as OpenAI GPT for natural language processing) or machine learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow) for custom models. We select the solution that best fits your project.

How involved do we as customers need to be in the process?

At the beginning of the project, we work closely with you to clearly define requirements and goals. During implementation, we keep you informed with regular updates and gather feedback to ensure the outcome meets your expectations.

Can the PoC be developed into a full-fledged product later?

Yes, that's possible. We plan the software architecture from the outset to ensure further development is feasible. After the PoC is completed, the project can be gradually expanded into a productive solution using the insights gained. APX-PS GmbH can take over the implementation and, in this case, will credit the PoC costs toward the final product.

What happens after completing the PoC?

You'll receive the complete source code, documentation, and a working prototype. If you'd like to subsequently implement the app in production, we're ready to support you. We'll take care of the setup, and you only pay the monthly hosting fees for as long as you want to present the web app live.
