## Questions buyers ask

What does the introduction call cost?

Nothing. It is free, lasts 30 minutes and carries no follow-on obligation.

What is the difference with the working session?

The introduction call starts from the business problem and gives you our read on which processes are worth tackling first. The working session goes further and names the two or three processes, sized, with the reasoning behind each.

Who should attend?

Whoever owns the problem. A title does not matter; knowing what is getting in the way does.

Do we need to prepare?

No. Beyond one sentence on the problem when you book, there is nothing to prepare: no slides, no documents.

## What we have done in real estate

Three engagements, one for each step of the ladder, and what each one settled.

- ### Agentic Readiness, for a European property software vendor
  
  Every new client was configured by hand, from knowledge in consultants' heads. In a few weeks we built a working agent against their live platform, using standards derived from their own past implementations. Their consultants judged the standard and output good enough to take over much of the work. They left with the agent, the evidence, and a rollout plan.
- ### Architecture Assessment, for a pan-European real estate organisation
  
  A core platform was about to be chosen with no picture of what it had to fit into. We designed the target architecture first, then scanned the market against it: an independent shortlist with a cost range per option, where quotes for the same scope differed by a factor of three. The board got a shortlist it could defend and the figures behind its business case.
- ### Agent Development, for a proptech platform
  
  Tenant and back-office agents on a live portfolio, connected to the property management and service ticket systems. Answers are benchmarked before release and monitored after, each agent sees only what the person asking may see, and GDPR and the AI Act are designed in. Tenants get answers at any hour; the team gets the exceptions and a record of every action.

Three starting points, one discipline: prove the output on real data before building the plumbing, keep what the existing systems can carry, and the same people from first session to handover.

Based in the Netherlands and built for European enterprises: data sovereignty, GDPR and AI Act compliance from day one.
