Software from Düsseldorf for your company
Whether you are a medium-sized company from Kaiserswerth, a startup from the Medienhafen or a small company from Flingern, we help you develop the right software for your challenges. Always with personal support and advice.
Agile Collaboration
Step by step and transparently, we develop the right software for you together with you
Conversation + Workshop
Step 1
You explain your issue to us and we take the time to fully understand it. Depending on the size of the problem, we do an additional free workshop with you.
Offer + Analyse
Step 2
We analyze your problem and develop an individual offer for you. We also show you the next steps and the expected costs.
Design + Concept
Step 3
Based on the preceding analysis, we develop a concept for the solution and, if necessary, an appropriate visual and technical design.
Development + Reconciliation
Step 4
This is the hot phase. We develop the software in close coordination with you and regularly show you the current status and adapt it to your wishes.
Testing + Quality Assurance
Step 5
Not only do we test regularly during development, but also in a dedicated quality assurance process after development is complete.
Go live + Support
Step 6
Now the time has come: We go live! We will continue to support you after go-live and provide you with advice and assistance and also host the software if required.
What we do for you
Three pillars, one goal: integrating AI into your business so it actually works.
AI Readiness & Strategy
You know AI is relevant – but not where to start? We analyze your processes, identify the use cases with the biggest impact and deliver a concrete roadmap. No 200-page strategy paper, but a plan you can act on tomorrow.
Within 2–3 days you have a prioritized AI roadmap with concrete next steps.
Sovereign AI Infrastructure
Whether GDPR-compliant cloud integration, local on-premise systems or hybrid architectures – we build the AI infrastructure that fits your data, your compliance needs and your budget. Open-source models, European hosting, full control. GDPR-compliant from day one.
A running AI system – cloud, on-premise or hybrid – with clear data flows and no vendor lock-in.
AI-native Software Development
Sometimes you need more than a setup – so we build the software too. Apps, backends and automations that don’t bolt on AI as an afterthought, but are designed to be intelligent from the ground up.
Custom software your employees use every day – from intelligent search to automated data analysis.
Voices from Düsseldorf
This is what local customers say about us
From start to finish, we received the best advice and support from Alex, Mike and Christian. Our commissioned projects were implemented conscientiously and highly professionally. We rely on a very high degree of flexibility in our choice of partners, which the guys from schnaq definitely bring to the table. Our next developments will definitely be done by schnaq again!
The cooperation with schnaq was easy, fast, uncomplicated and goal-oriented. I had the pleasure of exchanging ideas on various topics. After the discussions, no questions remained unanswered. Not only were my questions answered, but I also received helpful tips.
Henrik HühnThis team has turned the vision of FAYA into reality and has been instrumental in making the app what it is today. Their professionalism and dedication are exemplary, and I can't thank them enough. If you are looking for a top-notch IT team, I can wholeheartedly recommend schnaq. They have exceeded my expectations and have been simply fantastic to work with. I continue to enjoy working with them and look forward to working with them in the future. Thank you for the outstanding service!
