Stop Wasting Budget on AI That Can't Access Your Data, Pass Compliance, or Prove ROI.
We take enterprise IT teams from fragmented stack and zero AI value to production-ready agents in 8–12 weeks. With EU sovereignty built in from day one.
Gartner says 40% of agentic AI projects starting now will be cancelled by 2027.
We make sure yours isn't one of them.
Why most agentic AI projects fail
These are the three patterns we see in every enterprise that's struggling to get value from agentic AI.
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone:
01 Your foundations are not ready
Your team spends hours every day manually moving data between systems that should talk to each other automatically. Your legacy systems don't have the modern APIs needed for AI agents to access critical enterprise data. Your AI agents are delivering inconsistent results because they're working with incomplete and unreliable data foundations. You want to deploy agents, but your stack barely talks to itself.
02 Compliance and sovereignty are blocking progress
Your AI initiatives are stalled because you can't process sensitive data through US-based AI providers due to EU compliance requirements. You're deploying AI without mandatory human oversight controls, risking regulatory penalties. Your AI documentation is insufficient for EU compliance audits. You have no clear exit strategy from your current AI vendors. Every month you delay is another month competitors are pulling ahead.
03 You can't prove value to the board
Your team spends hours every day manually moving data between systems that should talk to each other automatically. Your legacy systems don't have the modern APIs needed for AI agents to access critical enterprise data. Your AI agents are delivering inconsistent results because they're working with incomplete and unreliable data foundations. You want to deploy agents, but your stack barely talks to itself.
What you get: from audit to agents in production
Agentic AI Readiness Audit
2-4 weeks
We assess your actual systems — not your 2019 architecture diagram. Your data, your APIs, your integration debt, your gaps. You get an honest map of what's possible in 6 months versus what's an 18-month foundation project.
- Audit your system integration readiness in 3–4 weeks
- Deploy AI agents 60% faster after completing the audit
- Avoid €200K+ in failed integration costs
- Eliminate agent performance bottlenecks before they happen
- Receive a board-ready assessment with clear go/no-go recommendations
Agent Deployment on Your Existing Stack
4–8 weeks after audit
We build smart workflow agents that connect your disconnected platforms, modernize legacy APIs for AI access, and eliminate the manual data transfers eating up your team's time. No full platform replacement needed.
- Reduce operational costs by 40–60%
- Cut manual data integration spend by up to 70%
- Deploy autonomous task agents that accelerate project delivery by 60%
- Eliminate research and documentation bottlenecks permanently
- Connect your systems in days, not months
EU Sovereignty & AI Act Compliance
Built in from week 1, not bolted on later
We design sovereign agent infrastructure using European cloud providers and LLMs. Guardrails that block harmful content and unauthorized actions. Complete audit documentation for EU AI Act high-risk classifications.
- EU-compliant architecture blueprint delivered in 6–8 weeks
- Avoid up to €2.3M in potential regulatory penalties
- Data residency guaranteed within EU borders
- Compliant AI safety framework implemented in 8–12 weeks
- Full protection against foreign surveillance laws and data access regulations
ROI & Business Case for Executive Approval
Delivered in 3 weeks
We quantify exactly what your AI agents will deliver before you build them. Board-ready financial projections with clear payback timelines, cost-benefit analysis, and quantified business value that gets budget approved.
- Comprehensive ROI business case in 3 weeks
- Quantified efficiency gains and cost reduction metrics
- Revenue impact projections executives can't say no to
- Clear measurement framework to track real ROI from day one
- Turn your AI vision into boardroom-approved budgets
Most engagements start with a 2 to 4 week Readiness Audit. We'll tell you in 30 minutes if it makes sense for your situation.
How it works: from call to production in 4 steps
Step 1: Readiness Conversation
30 minutes.
We assess your current stack, your AI ambitions, and whether the foundations are there. No sales pitch. You walk away knowing exactly where you stand and what the path looks like.
Step 2: Agent Readiness Audit
3–4 weeks
Deep assessment of your systems, data quality, API landscape, compliance posture, and integration debt. Delivered as a board-ready report with prioritized recommendations and go/no-go signals.
Step 3: Architecture & Build
4–8 weeks
Sovereign agent infrastructure designed, APIs modernized, guardrails implemented, and agents deployed against your highest-impact use cases. Same team from audit through build.
Step 4: Production & Monitoring
Ongoing
Agents in production doing real work. With monitoring, with guardrails, with seamless AI-to-human handoffs. We stay with you; same team, same accountability.
"Working with arcast was a great pleasure and breath of fresh air in a very difficult transformation program. Communication was super easy and the level of engagement of the team was super high! Proud to say that thanks to arcast's team, we made the first delivery in the ongoing transformation project."

"The quality and trust in people and process for the arcast team was delivered through the early project phases. They bring expertise and positive approaches to all aspects of the project."
Group Head of Engineering
We help clients across a range of industries, from financial services and telecom to media and non-profit.
▸ Independent
We recommend what works for your stack, your data, your budget and vendor neutral. If the right answer is "don't do this yet" — we'll tell you that too.
▸ We Ship
We're Production obsessed, not demo-obsessed. We don't hand you a slide deck and move on. Same team from strategy through production. We stay until agents are doing real work, with monitoring, with guardrails, with measurable ROI.
▸ EU-Native
Based in the Netherlands. We design for GDPR, EU AI Act, and data residency from the architecture level, not as a compliance patch after the build.

Book a 30-minute readiness conversation. We'll assess your stack, your compliance posture, and your AI ambitions — and tell you honestly what's realistic for your timeframe. If the Readiness Audit makes sense, most clients start within two weeks.
