The problem
The problem we solve
Everyone wants AI in SAP, but most organisations are stuck between impressive demos and real, governed use.
-
Pilots that never reach production
Proofs of concept impress, then stall because nobody planned for security, data or support.
-
Concerns about data access
IT is rightly wary of letting AI tools read and change business data.
-
Unclear Joule value
Joule is available, but it is not obvious which scenarios pay off for your users.
-
Shadow AI
People paste SAP data into public AI tools because there is no approved alternative.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.
What is Joule?
SAP's AI copilot. It works across SAP cloud applications, answering questions, navigating apps and completing tasks in natural language.
What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard for connecting AI assistants to tools and data. We build MCP servers that expose selected SAP functions to approved assistants, with your security rules applied.
Is our data safe?
We design for read-only, role-based access, keep processing within your SAP Business AI Platform landscape where possible, and log every request.
Where should we start?
With a short use-case workshop. It produces a shortlist of scenarios with value, data readiness and risk scored for each.
Do we need S/4HANA for SAP Business AI?
Joule works best with SAP cloud applications. For ECC landscapes, AI extensions and MCP servers on the platform can still connect to your data.
