For the HR team of a technology company we built a custom ATS with a voicebot for pre-screening: the recruiter adds the CV and sends a link, the voicebot runs the approved conversation, and the result with its sources goes to the recruiter, who makes the decision. The team works about 3 to 4 hours less on each candidate.
For a staffing agency we built a system in which a voicebot holds the first conversation with each applicant, and the agency's CRM updates after every call. According to the client, the team saves almost an hour of work on every applicant. We build such apps from €3,000 net, and with 300 applicants a month the payback in our scenario is 0.3 months.
In October 2026 we released seven parts on syntalith.ai for AI assistants and agents: from robots.txt and an API catalogue to an MCP server with our services and available times, and WebMCP on the booking page. An agent can read our services with prices and prepare the booking form, and a person always confirms the meeting.
When choosing between Syntalith and Netguru, first decide whether you are buying an AI feature in an existing app or a whole product build. Netguru describes generative AI app development, agents, custom models, integrations and MLOps. Syntalith builds AI apps for a specific process, from €3,000 net, typically €3,000 to €7,000 and 4 to 10 weeks. Get both firms to quote the same task.
When you choose between Syntalith and Sii for a company AI knowledge base, give both the same set of sources, user groups and questions, and compare the work each scopes for document access and for judging answers. Sii describes RAG chatbots, agents and LLMs. Syntalith builds an AI application on company documents from €3,000 net, which at 800 questions a month pays back in 1.0 month.
When a SaaS vendor raises the price, first establish what you pay for after renewal. Often one feature, such as an integration, forces the dearer plan. If the increase is €230 a month, your own connection for €3,000 net on a €5.49 server pays back in 13 months. Build a whole app when the scope you need is stable and clearly differs from ready products.
Buy a SaaS replacement with the switchover day settled: who moves the open cases, on which work the team accepts the application and what happens if work cannot start. These agreements shape the scope of the order as much as the program's screens do.
A portal for quarterly reviews gives the account manager and the client one place to prepare the conversation and track agreements between meetings: materials, topics the client added and a plan with the people responsible. First compare it with the shared plan in your current customer success platform.
A custom app for improvement ideas links an employee's proposal to the decision to test it and to the trial result, which later teams can see. When a similar idea comes back from another plant, the manager sees what has already been learned. With a few ideas a month, a list with rules in your current tool is enough.
A decision register keeps the options considered, the assumptions and the reason for the choice, so the next change starts from understanding the previous one. For a few decisions, a wiki template and a link from the task are enough. An application makes sense when decisions are scattered across many repositories and projects. At Syntalith the application costs from €3,000 net. At 120 searches for a rationale a month of 20 minutes each, it pays back in 2.9 months.
A reporting portal for a group's board links the subsidiaries' material to a specific meeting, shows the controller what is missing and gives the board a closed pack. A correction after the pack is sent goes to the same meeting as a supplement. If the only problem is delivering a report regularly, BI is enough. At Syntalith the application costs from €3,000 net. At 60 subsidiary documents a month of 45 minutes each, it pays back in 2.4 months.
Software for releasing packaging artwork ties the approved artwork to a specific print release: the product, the pack size, the language version and the order. With several variants, a note saying „design ready” leaves too much work in the inbox. First check whether comments and approvals in PDF are enough.
A demo equipment system links a salesperson's booking to where a specific unit actually is, so sales does not promise to ship a device that has not come back yet. First check the rental module in your current system, and build your own app when bookings in the CRM and warehouse stock drift apart.
Leaving a SaaS tool without losing history needs a trial export and a check that an employee can reconstruct a past decision from it. A file of records often lacks the attachments, so you count the file coverage and what needs explaining before you switch off the old system. At Syntalith an app costs from €3,000 net, and at 150 history searches a month of 15 minutes each it pays back in 3.3 months.
Work planning software for a shared service centre shows in one plan the demand from several companies, the agreed order and the requests waiting for a decision. The manager does not settle the order by phone and retype it into a spreadsheet. Capacity planning may already be available in your current tool.
You check a system's fit before you buy on real work: you choose a case that shows the difference between the candidates, and you judge a result that lets you choose the next step. A demo and the supplier's claim do not answer whether the system will handle your case.
A spreadsheet a manager keeps next to the CRM rarely justifies building a new system. First check whether an agreed field and view in your current CRM solve the problem, then a narrower integration, and only last a custom app. At Syntalith an app costs from €3,000 net, and with 600 quote updates a month at 4 minutes each it pays back in 2.7 months.
You retire a custom SaaS extension when the vendor's new feature covers the user's whole working day, including the agreements that a short feature description does not show. You assess it as a separate change: on the same cases, with a plan for moving the data and switching the add-on off.
The first stage of moving away from SaaS covers a part of the work with a clear boundary: you know which work moves to the new application, where it takes its data from and what stays in the old system. Without that boundary, a partial replacement creates two places that handle the same case.
After you replace SaaS with a custom application, someone has to own the whole service: from an employee's report to restored work, also when a failure crosses several companies. The contract names that person, the way of working during an outage and what the next maintainer receives besides the code.
AI apps
We build the application around how your team works, with a language model inside. We check accuracy on your documents before launch, and the code stays with you.
Times are shown in your own time zone. We work with clients across time zones.
