# TyrolAI > Practical AI solutions for manufacturing companies in Tyrol and Austria. Founded by Simon Kirchebner, based in Schwaz, Tirol. TyrolAI is an industrial AI company that delivers practical, production-ready AI solutions for manufacturing companies. The company is based in Schwaz, Tirol, Austria, and was founded by Simon Kirchebner, a process technician with over 10 years of industry experience. TyrolAI's philosophy: AI must work on the shop floor -- clear scope, measurable KPIs, and practical rollout. Main offering: a half-day in-house AI literacy training under Art. 4 EU AI Act (fixed price 2,400 €, documented certificate, ICO-certified trainer). Second entry offering: a one-day AI potential workshop (fixed price 2,900 €, incl. preparation call and results document). Implementation projects follow as a second step. On-site in Tyrol and western Austria, remote across Austria and the DACH region. Website available in German and English. --- ## About the Founder Simon Kirchebner works as a process technician in manufacturing and knows the reality of production: shift work, quality pressure, and robust processes. That is why he implements AI so it works in daily operations -- clear scope, measurable KPIs, and practical rollout. - 10+ years in industry - Hands-on implementation focus - On-site in Tyrol and Austria - Quote: "AI must work on the shop floor." --- ## Services ### AI Training -- EU AI Act Art. 4 (main offering) Half-day in-house AI literacy training for industrial companies. Since 2 February 2025, Article 4 of the EU AI Act requires companies that use AI to ensure their staff have sufficient AI literacy. TyrolAI delivers this hands-on -- from the shop floor, not the lecture hall. Not legal advice. - Approx. 4 hours, on-site in Tyrol/western Austria or remote - Mixed groups of up to 12 people (production management, plant management, QA, maintenance, administration) - Content: what AI can and cannot do in operations, everyday risks (GDPR, shadow AI, hallucinations), concrete rules for daily work - Documented training certificate for compliance records - Fixed price: 2,400 € flat, incl. materials and certificates of attendance, plus travel outside Tyrol - Trainer certified: EU AI Act Art. 4 -- AI Literacy (ICO), certificate: https://tyrolai.com/zertifikat-eu-ai-act.pdf - Landing page: https://tyrolai.com/ki-schulung/ ### AI Potential Workshop One day on site: prioritize use cases, check data readiness, define a roadmap. - 1 day at the plant, incl. preparation call - Results document (3-5 pages): prioritized use case list, data readiness check, rough implementation roadmap - Fixed price: 2,900 € ### Production -- Computer Vision & Quality Control Computer vision for stable processes and quality inspection on the shop floor. - Visual inspection: Defect detection using CNNs and Vision Transformers, micro-scratch detection down to 0.1mm - Anomaly detection: Automated identification of material defects and classification - Process support: Dimensional accuracy checks and real-time quality monitoring ### Quality -- Automated Quality Checks Automated quality checks and structured analysis of inspection and documentation data. - Automated testing - Document analysis - Traceability ### Predictive Maintenance Vibration, acoustic, and temperature analysis via Edge AI. - Up to 40% reduction in unplanned downtime - Bearing wear detection on CNC spindles - Edge AI deployment for real-time monitoring ### Process Optimization & Reinforcement Learning Deep Reinforcement Learning for machine parameter optimization. - 10-15% cycle time reduction - Energy consumption minimization - Autonomous parameter tuning ### Knowledge Management & RAG Private RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems for technical documentation. - 100% on-premise data privacy - 80% reduction in search and onboarding time - Intelligent access to machine manuals, SOPs, and technical documentation ### Service -- AI-Assisted Workflows AI-assisted service workflows and intelligent automation. - Email triage - Chatbot integration - Ticket routing --- ## Technology Stack - Frameworks: PyTorch, TensorRT - Infrastructure: Docker, Kubernetes - Languages: Python, C++, Rust - Industrial protocols: OPC-UA - Deployment: Edge AI, on-premise --- ## Process -- The Reality Check From first call to AI in production -- step by step. The initial consultation is free; from the workshop onwards, everything has a price. ### Step 1: Initial Consultation (free, 30-45 min) We clarify the trigger, the goal, and the data situation -- and whether it is an AI topic at all. Deliverables: - Honest assessment - Data check - Recommended next step ### Step 2: AI Potential Workshop (1 day, fixed price 2,900 €) One day on site: prioritize use cases, check data readiness, define the roadmap -- incl. preparation call. Deliverables: - Prioritized use case list - Data readiness check - Implementation roadmap - Results document (3-5 pages) ### Step 3: Pilot (2-6 weeks, price on request) I build a pilot that tests your use case in real operations -- be it a RAG system over your documents, a vision model on your parts, or a predictive-maintenance model on sensor data. Deliverables: - Pilot setup - Test runs - KPI tracking - Results review ### Step 4: Implementation & Operations (after pilot) If the pilot convinces: production deployment in your infrastructure -- with monitoring, maintenance, and documentation. Deliverables: - Rollout plan - Operating concept - Monitoring - Support & maintenance --- ## Blog ### From Idea to AI Pilot in 2–6 Weeks: The Process Published: 2026-01-10 | Category: Strategy | Read time: 5 min A clear process, fixed milestones, and measurable outcomes. This keeps AI pragmatic and actionable. An AI pilot needs to deliver value fast. That is why TyrolAI works in clear stages that produce measurable results within two to six weeks. 1. Kickoff & use-case definition: Clarify the problem, target, data situation, and success criteria. The outcome is a focused use case with KPIs. 2. Prototype & testing: Build a working prototype, test it on real data, and compare KPIs against the baseline. 3. Outcome & scale: Clear report with results, effort, and next steps. Measurable impact instead of slides. Clear decision: scale or stop. Minimal risk and effort. --- ## Contact Information - Name: Simon Kirchebner - Email: kirchebner@tyrolai.com - Phone: +43 664 1820892 - Address: Archengasse 4, 6130 Schwaz, Tirol, Austria - Website: https://tyrolai.com - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-kirchebner-b33158324/ - Languages: German, English - Response time: Usually within 1-2 business days --- ## Legal TyrolAI Archengasse 4 6130 Schwaz Tirol, Austria EU Online Dispute Resolution: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/ --- ## Key Pages - AI Training (EU AI Act Art. 4): https://tyrolai.com/ki-schulung/ - Homepage (German): https://tyrolai.com/ - Homepage (English): https://tyrolai.com/en/ - Blog: https://tyrolai.com/blog/ki-pilot-in-2-wochen
