We are pleased to announce a new partnership: Together with Visionary Data GmbH of Munich, we are expanding our offerings to include a GDPR-compliant AI platform designed specifically to meet the needs of German small and medium-sized businesses.
This allows you to achieve productivity gains through artificial intelligence without compromising data protection and compliance.
Visionary Data was founded in 2024 by Sebastian Gesellensetter (CEO) and Sebastian Sager (CTO). The two founders have known each other since their school days and, after more than ten years in various industries, identified the same gap: Large data sets lie unused in medium-sized companies, while AI technology is rapidly improving. The company was born out of this observation, supported by an advisory board with expertise in enterprise software, B2B sales, and digital transformation.
The approach is pragmatic. Visionary Data doesn’t sell AI as a theoretical concept; instead, it ensures that it is actually used in day-to-day work. This is what sets the company apart from many other providers.

According to a 2025 MIT study, about 95 percent of all GenAI pilot projects fail to deliver measurable business value. The reason is rarely the technology itself, but rather the implementation. Simply purchasing a tool does not mean that employees will actually use it. That’s why Visionary Data combines both: a platform and a structured implementation program.
The core product is ASCADI, an AI platform that combines chat, preconfigured assistants, rule-based agents, and access to a company’s own knowledge base into a single interface. The following points are particularly important:
ASCADI brings together various language models—such as GPT, Claude, and Gemini—under a single login. Models are selected automatically based on the task or manually. This helps you avoid vendor lock-in and ensures you have the right model for every task.
Manuals, SOPs, quality management documentation, and internal sources can be integrated. The platform provides answers with source citations while respecting existing access rights, ensuring that each user sees only what they are authorized to view.
Over 90 proven agent templates are available and can be customized for specific departments, languages, and processes. Rule-based agents handle recurring tasks according to clearly defined guidelines, such as automatically documenting meetings or pre-qualifying incoming tickets.
For us in the IT Security department at OHB DS, one factor was decisive: ASCADI was developed from the ground up with a focus on data protection and security. The key features:
• Hosting exclusively in Germany and the EU. No data transfers to third countries.
• Operated on ISO 27001-certified infrastructure, with documented technical and organizational measures in accordance with the GDPR, including a data processing agreement.
• Role-based access, MFA, and SSO integration via existing identity providers.
• Comprehensive audit logging of every request and access event, traceable at any time by IT and compliance officers.
• No training with your data. Neither Visionary Data nor the model providers use your inputs for model improvement; only Enterprise API accesses with a contractual opt-out clause are used.
• Compliant with Section 203 by default for those bound by professional secrecy —including client segregation; dedicated instances are available as an option for particularly stringent requirements.
This makes ASCADI a good fit for issues that concern us anyway: traceable logging, clear authorization concepts, and data sovereignty.
With Visionary Data, we are expanding our portfolio to include an area that goes beyond traditional IT security but is closely related to it. You’ll gain access to an AI platform and receive support throughout the implementation process—from the initial workshop through data integration to go-live. The same security and compliance standards that we apply to our other solutions also apply here.
Typical use cases include automated documentation, faster searches within a company’s own knowledge base, and handling customer inquiries. These solutions are already in productive use at medium-sized businesses, including companies in the medical technology, tax consulting, and IT sectors.
