Hello everyone! I'm excited to tell you about Silk Data, a technology provider and software manufacturer with a team of PhD-titled experts and engineering professionals with 80+ years of combined experience. Our mission is to make AI accessible to businesses of all sizes. As CEO, my responsibility is to lead and manage the company, however, I'm not alone. Our board of top-flight managers helps make sure things run smoothly.
What is the story behind starting this company?
The story of the company starts with one of Germany's oldest and most famous cities, Krefeld, which is known for its beautiful and high-quality silk and velvet fabrics. This is what helped give our company its name – Silk Data. We chose an elegant butterfly to be our logo, as it represents our commitment to spinning silk with care and precision – a symbol of status and elite distinction. Our team is passionate about creating products of superior quality and individual craftsmanship.
What are your company’s business model–in house team or third-party vendors/ outsourcing?

Our team of experienced developers and engineers can work closely with our clients to provide dedicated resources and expertise for projects. We understand the need for timely delivery and outstanding performance, so our outsourcing services are designed to help you achieve your goals quickly and cost-effectively. With us, you can drive innovation in your industry and reach your goals faster.
How does your company differentiate itself from the competition?
At our company, we value relationships and collaboration – both with our clients and within the team. We work closely with clients to understand their needs, goals, and challenges. We develop tailored solutions, and our highly experienced team stays up-to-date with the latest technologies and trends.
We also place an emphasis on collaboration and teamwork within our organization. We have well-established processes for project management, communication and knowledge sharing, and are committed to staying ahead with AI and machine learning.

Please share some of the services that you offer for which clients approach you the most for?
We help our clients create the most efficient and secure iOS and Android mobile applications and top-notch AI consulting services, so if you're looking for that kind of help, you've come to the right place!
What is your customer satisfaction rate according to you? What steps do you take to cater to your customer’s needs and requirements?
At Silk Data, our priority when it comes to customer satisfaction is creating long-term loyalty and repeat business. To achieve this, we begin with a discussion to understand the client's request clearly. Then, we create a prototype to demonstrate the solution's capability and proceed to develop the product incrementally, keeping the customer updated. We conduct testing and validation as part of our process and offer comprehensive support post-launch. This has led to our strong customer satisfaction, achieved through sustained loyalty and repeat business over time.
What kind of support system do you offer to your clients for catering to their queries and issues?
At our company, we take your success seriously. That's why we provide three different levels of support - L1, L2, and L3 - to ensure that our customers get the right assistance for their specific needs. This approach allows us to give fast and effective service, which in turn helps ensure our customers get the most out of their experience with us.
What kind of payment structure do you follow to bill your clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, Pay per Milestone (could be in phases, months, versions etc.)
With more than 20 years of experience working with all sorts of payment structures, we have found that "Pay per month" is our favorite option. This way, you can spread out your annual cost into convenient monthly payments.
Do you take in projects which meet your basic budget requirement? If yes, what is the minimum requirement? If no, on what minimum budget you have worked for?
We do have a minimum budget that we work with here. It's approximately €5,000, so that's something to keep in mind!
What is the price range (min and max) of the projects that you catered to in 2022?
We offer standard projects with an annual budget between €5,000 and €500,000 – whatever your budget, we've got you covered!
Where do you see your company in the next 10 years?
We see Silk Data to be one of the top 5 global providers of AI products and services that help companies bring all their ideas to life through machine learning and artificial intelligence!
