Two ways to start

Some companies need a first concrete step. Others know what they want to build. We work with both, and you can start on one track and continue on the other.

01

Get started

Fits when
You want to know where AI is useful in your business and prefer to start small.
How it works
A review at your premises or by video, a prioritised plan and a first step delivered at a fixed price.
Examples
AI support for quotes or customer replies with human approval, guidelines for how AI may be used, one recurring workflow automated.
You get
A written plan, a first step in use and guidelines for what comes next.
How we work with businesses

02

Build and integrate

Fits when
You have systems, data and processes that AI needs to connect to, or an idea that needs architecture and operations.
How it works
Requirements analysis and a pre-study, a scoped prototype that shows the value, then a solution built for production with monitoring and documentation.
Examples
AI agents that carry out tasks in your systems, integrations with business and finance systems, search with source references across your own documents.
You get
A solution you can maintain, with clear ownership and documented data handling. You own what we build: code, documentation and data.

What we build

The technology is chosen by what needs solving, which systems are in place and how the solution will be maintained. This is what we build most often.

  • 01,Agents

    AI agents

    Recurring tasks done with fewer manual steps.

    Agents with a defined job, clear rules and human approval where it is needed.

    Example:Reads incoming requests, prepares replies and hands them to a member of staff to approve.

  • 02,Integration

    Integrations with business systems

    Less double entry between finance, business and customer systems.

    AI connects to the systems you already have through their interfaces, not alongside them.

    Example:A new case in the web form is created directly in the business system, with no double entry.

  • 03,Automation

    Workflow automation

    From an incoming request to a draft, ticket or report without detours.

    The workflow is mapped first, then the stable steps are automated.

    Example:The basis for a quote is drawn from incoming email, with unclear points marked for review.

  • 04,Search

    Search across your own documents

    Answers from your procedures, contracts and manuals, with a reference to the source.

    Documents are indexed where they may be processed, and answers show where they come from.

    Example:The question "What does the contract say about termination?" is answered with a reference to the right section.

  • 05,Operations

    Cloud platform and operations

    Solutions you can maintain, monitor and update safely.

    Built in your cloud environment or on your own infrastructure, with monitoring and automated releases.

    Example:A change goes out automatically and is followed up with monitoring.

  • 06,Pre-study

    Requirements and pre-study

    The right problem is prioritised before anything is built.

    Requirements, data and risks are reviewed, and the result is a recommendation you can decide on.

    Example:Three possible first projects are compared, and you get a recommendation on which should come first.

The right technology for the problem

Syntax is rarely the hard part today. The hard part is choosing right for the specific problem, given your existing systems, your budget and what can be maintained.

AI and agents

  • AI agents
  • AI orchestration Azure AI Foundry
  • Language models via API Claude, OpenAI
  • MCP servers Tools and data sources for agents

We adapt the technology to the problem, not the other way round, and are equally at home in new AI platforms and in older systems that run the business.

How an engagement runs

We start with a defined scope and build on what works. Each step has a clear outcome, and you decide on the next one.

  1. Intro call

    You describe your business and what you want to achieve. We assess whether and how we can help. No commitment.

  2. Review of your operations

    A morning at your premises. We go through workflows, systems and recurring tasks and identify where AI adds the most value. For companies further away, the review is done by video.

  3. First step

    We recommend a well-defined first project with clear benefits and deliver it at a fixed price. Larger solutions start with a pre-study and a prototype.

  4. Governance and next steps

    Guidelines, GDPR and clear ownership are put in place. From there we develop further at the pace you choose.

One senior consultant. A network when needed.

Esplingo is run by Sebastian Espling. You have one senior consultant as your contact throughout, from the first conversation to production, and we bring in experienced specialists from our network when the work requires it. That always happens as agreed with you.

  • The same senior contact throughout. The person who does the review stays with you through to production.
  • No unknown hand-offs. You are never handed over to someone you have not met. Specialists join only as agreed with you.
  • Short decision paths. Questions are answered by the person who knows the answer.

Examples of assignments

Illustrative examples, not client cases. They show what an assignment can look like on each track.

Example, not a client story Get started

Transport

Quotes and driver logs are compiled by hand after the working day.

AI drafts the quote based on previous jobs. The person responsible reviews, adjusts and approves it.

Faster turnaround on quotes and less manual administration.

Example, not a client story Get started

Agriculture

Records sit in several systems and with individual people.

Existing records are brought together in one overview that can be searched and queried.

Quicker access to the information behind decisions.

Example, not a client story Get started

Manufacturing

The same customer questions keep coming back and take time from production.

AI suggests replies that a member of staff approves before they are sent.

More consistent response times and more time for core work.

Example, not a client story Build and integrate

Customer service and orders

Requests arrive by e-mail and replies need data from the business system.

An AI agent reads the request, retrieves order status through the business system's interface and drafts a reply. A member of staff reviews and sends it. Every step is logged.

Shorter response times and less manual lookup, with a person still making the decision.

Control and data

  • You stay in control

    People make the decisions. We are transparent about which tools are used and how your data is handled.

  • Defined and concrete

    A prioritised plan after the review. The first step has a fixed price, which you know before any work begins.

  • Compliance done properly

    Factual guidance on GDPR and the EU AI Act, adapted to your business.

  • The right tool for the job

    Sometimes AI is the answer, sometimes a simple integration or a better way of working. What decides it is the benefit, not what sounds modern.

  • You own what we build

    Code, documentation and data are handed over to you. No lock-in to Esplingo.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost?

The first step has a fixed price, and you know exactly what it costs before you decide. The intro call comes with no commitment.

Is Esplingo one person or a team?

Esplingo is run by one senior consultant, Sebastian Espling, who is your point of contact throughout. When an assignment needs more skills, we bring in experienced specialists from our network. That always happens as agreed with you.

Can you take on more than a first step?

Yes. The Build and integrate track covers AI agents, integrations with business systems, document search and cloud platforms. Larger assignments start with a pre-study and a scoped prototype before anything is built in full.

Which technology do you use?

The technology is chosen from your systems, the problem to be solved, your budget and how the solution will be maintained, not the other way round. We are equally at home in new AI platforms and in older systems that run the business. The choice and the reasons are set out before work begins.

Who owns what is built?

You do. Code, documentation and data are handed over to you, and you are not tied to Esplingo in order to maintain or build on the solution.

Do we have to change systems?

Not as a starting point. We begin with the systems and tools you already use and assess where AI can simplify the work.

Do you also build solutions without AI?

Yes, when that is the right answer. Often an integration, an automation or a better flow between existing systems is enough, and it is both cheaper and safer. We would rather say so than add AI that does no good.

What happens to our data?

Before any tool is used, we set out which data is involved and where it is processed. We follow GDPR and the EU AI Act.

Will AI replace our staff?

No. The aim is to relieve staff of recurring tasks so that more time goes to customers and core work. People make the decisions.

Is there an AI consultant near me?

Yes. We are based in Falköping and meet companies on site in and around Falköping and across Skaraborg.

Do you work with companies elsewhere in Sweden?

Yes. The same services are available to companies anywhere in Sweden, delivered remotely. If any part needs to happen on site, we agree on that with you.

Do you work with software teams?

Yes. Besides building solutions, we teach software teams to make AI-assisted development a shared practice, with instructions, review and verification in their own codebase.

Want to know what is sensible to start with?

Book an intro call. You describe your business, and we give you an honest assessment, whether the answer is a small first step or a larger solution.
