About amber

amber is Europe's leading business AI. A modern business AI that helps companies make internal knowledge accessible in an efficient and GDPR-compliant manner. amber combines classic search, generative AI, assistance functions, and automation in one solution.

No more long searches, just targeted answers—based on actual company data and access rights. amber consolidates all your company data (documents, network drives, DMS, Confluence, M365, Jira, etc.) and makes it available via a unified search or chat interface. Not only text, but also images (according to description), scanned documents (OCR), versions, and duplicates are recognized and made searchable.

With pre-built AI agents (e.g., for departments or specific topics), knowledge can be queried in a targeted manner or processes can be automated. 100% GDPR-compliant, ISO-27001 certified, EU AI Act compliant. The system does not use customer data for training purposes and strictly maintains internal access rights.

Over 70 standard connectors (cloud & on-premises) for systems such as M365, Jira, network drives, Confluence, etc. Open APIs also allow for individual connections. Deployment is possible in your own infrastructure (on-premises/private cloud), with central control over access rights and rollout by IT. For international teams: amber can search in multiple languages and translate results.

Answers are referenced (with document links and highlights), users can provide direct feedback – the system learns continuously. Usage statistics, KPI monitoring, and reporting provide insight into search behavior and ROI.
