In short

What is a custom AI application?

A custom AI application is a tool of your own in which a language model does work that is manual today: reading documents, looking things up, summarising, sorting or drafting a first version, based on your own data. Sharp Creations builds these tools for SMEs; we agree the price after a short call, and you get a fixed price up front. Once paid, the code and the Git repository are yours. We are based in Julianadorp (the Netherlands) and work for businesses across the country.

What such a tool can do.

PDF

Decision aids

A few questions and the customer gets advice or an estimate, like our advisor tool.

WIZARDS
Technology

How it works, and how we prevent errors.

Search first, then answer (RAG)

A language model knows nothing about your company. With retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) the tool first finds the relevant passages in your documents and hands them to the model. The answer then comes from your sources, with a reference. Explained in preventing hallucinations with RAG.

A person decides where it matters

For quotes, customer emails or decisions about money, the tool makes a proposal and a colleague approves it. The model is allowed to say it does not know, instead of guessing.

Testing with real questions

Before launch we build a test set of real questions with the right answers, and measure how often the tool gets it right.

Model and data

We pick the model per task and budget, for example from Anthropic, OpenAI or Google, or via Azure OpenAI if you work in Microsoft. Your data goes through those providers’ business APIs, and we host the application itself in the EU. Also read Azure OpenAI or OpenAI: where does your data go?

Costs under control

Language models charge per use. We set limits and show what the tool costs per month, so there are no surprises.

How we work

How we build your AI tool.

  1. 01

    Choosing what pays off

    Which task comes back often, takes a lot of time and is easy to check?

  2. 02

    A trial on your data

    With a small set of real documents we test whether the quality is good enough.

  3. 03

    Build and connect

    The tool, the integrations, the roles and the limits, in short rounds.

  4. 04

    Launch and adjust

    Launch with your team, then adjust based on the test set and usage.

Honest advice

When it pays off, and when it does not.

It pays off when a task comes back often and takes a lot of time, when the information is recorded somewhere (in documents, emails or a system), and when a mistake can be checked before it does harm.

It does not pay off at low volume, for decisions that must be flawless without a check, or when your data is messy; then start by getting your data in order. Sometimes a standard AI subscription for your team is enough. Then we will say so.

What you can see from us: our advisor tool is a wizard we built ourselves, giving advice and a ballpark price in a few questions. A public case of an AI tool for a client is not on the site yet.

Price

What drives the price.

We price a custom AI application after a call, with a fixed price up front. What determines the price:

  • the number of sources and documents, and how messy they are;
  • integrations with your other systems;
  • the number of users and roles;
  • whether a human approval step is needed;
  • requirements for security and logging.

The language model’s usage costs come on top per month and depend on how often the tool is used. We make them clear up front.

Who you talk to

You talk to the developers.

No account manager in between. Call, message or email; you usually get an answer within one working day.

One number for the four of us. We reply within one business day. Based in Julianadorp; online, or we come to you.

Frequently asked questions

Good to know.

Ask your question
What does a custom AI application cost?
We price it after a short call, with a fixed price up front. The language model’s usage costs come on top per month; they depend on usage and we make them clear up front.
How is this different from just using ChatGPT?
ChatGPT does not know your documents, systems or way of working. A custom tool searches your data, gives the source with every answer, works with roles and logging, and is connected to your CRM or mail.
Is my data used to train AI models?
With the business APIs of the major providers, your input is not used to train models by default, according to their terms. We deliberately choose a provider per project and record that.
Can an AI tool make mistakes?
Yes. That is why answers come from your own sources, with a reference, why we test with real questions, and why a person decides where a mistake could do harm.
Can the AI tool run in our Microsoft environment?
Yes. With Azure OpenAI and sign-in through your Microsoft account, everything stays in your own environment. See also Azure app development.
How is this different from an AI assistant on my website?
An AI assistant on your website helps visitors with their questions. A custom AI application is for your own team and processes. For the former: AI assistant for your website.
Is the code of the AI tool mine?
Yes. Once paid you get the code and the Git repository, with documentation.

Which manual work do you want gone?

Briefly describe the task that takes a lot of time now. You usually hear back within one working day, with a proposal or a few focused questions.
