Web developer & AI agency for Heidelberg.
Modern websites and AI integrations for established SMBs in Heidelberg and the Rhein-Neckar region. Focus: medical practices, research institutions and biotech firms around the Universitätsklinikum, DKFZ and BioMed-Park — sectors that take GDPR seriously and need to communicate in multiple languages.
Heidelberg is one of Germany's densest science and medical regions. The university, Universitätsklinikum, DKFZ, Max Planck institutes and the BioMed-Park pull international researchers, physicians and biotech founders into the same city limits. Web presences here have to build trust, be technically precise, and deliver German + English on equal footing.
At the same time there's a broad mid-market of medical practices, law and tax firms, hoteliers and tourism providers running on early-2010s websites — slow, not mobile-optimized, with no clear conversion path. Both groups benefit most when Web and AI come from a single source rather than three uncoordinated vendors.
Why Heidelberg businesses work with me
- →Web and AI from a single source: One contact who builds your website AND your AI integrations — no agency hand-offs, no integration friction between vendors.
- →Close to Heidelberg: 55 km from Karlsruhe (about 40 Minuten). On-site meetings are easy when a project benefits from it.
- →Direct senior delivery: You work directly with the developer building your site. Short paths from question to answer.
- →Established SMB focus: Working with companies that want a website which measurably brings in inquiries — not Wix-tier hobby setups.
- →Transparent fixed prices: You know the project cost before signing — no hourly rates, no surprise invoices.
- →Practical AI, not hype: AI projects start with a concrete bottleneck (phone load, document workflow, FAQ traffic) — not with a tool looking for a problem.
What I deliver for Heidelberg businesses
Business websites
Custom sites for established SMBs — clean design, fast load, full SEO. Built on Next.js so it's still modern in three years.
AI integration
Customer-facing (chatbot, voice AI, lead qualification) or internal (workflow bots, document generation). Always tied to a measurable outcome.
Landing pages
Conversion-focused single pages for campaigns, launches or specific services. Often paired with Google Ads.
ERP / CRM integration
Connect Odoo, HubSpot or your existing system with the website and AI workflows so data flows in one direction, not three.
Multilingual delivery
German + English (often + French) handled properly — hreflang, separate URLs, proper SEO per language. Important for international clientele.
Ongoing support
Monthly retainer for clients who want a developer on call — for changes, performance work, and incremental AI rollouts.
Working in Heidelberg
Heidelberg's economy rests on three pillars: science & medicine (university, Universitätsklinikum, DKFZ, BioMed-Park), tourism (castle, old town, international visitors) and a long-established SMB mid-market (medical practices, law firms, hospitality). Each pillar has its own web requirements — and all three need multilingual, trust-building online presence.
What sets Heidelberg apart from the rest of Rhine-Neckar: the international clientele. Patients, tourists, scientists arrive from around the world. A site that only works in German misses a substantial part of the market. Clean hreflang, separate URLs per language, and SEO in both markets aren't nice-to-haves here.
Heidelberg is fertile ground for AI integration: medical FAQ bots, multilingual patient communication, appointment voice AI for practices, document search across research archives — all use cases that address a concrete bottleneck rather than chase novelty. GDPR compliance isn't optional here, it's a precondition.
If you're searching for an AI agency in Heidelberg, you rarely need a large team — you need someone who understands and ships AI solutions. From AI agents for appointment booking and patient communication to automated document workflows and AI workshops for your team: you get AI integration and website from a single source, with one direct contact from idea to launch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you only work with clients in Heidelberg?
No. I'm based in Karlsruhe and work with clients across the entire DACH region — from Hamburg to Vienna to Zurich. The website doesn't care where you are.
Can we meet in person?
Yes. For larger projects on-site meetings in Heidelberg or anywhere in the region are easy — 55 km from Karlsruhe, around 40 Minuten. For smaller projects video calls are usually more efficient.
How long does a website take?
Business websites: 4–6 weeks. Premium projects with AI integration: 8–12 weeks. A detailed timeline is part of every quote.
What about ongoing maintenance?
I offer monthly retainer packages from €130/month for clients who want continuous support, optimization, and new features. No long-term contracts.
Do you work with medical practices and clinics?
Yes. Practice and clinic sites are a regular part of my work — including GDPR compliance for patient data, integration with appointment systems (e.g. Doctolib, Samedi), and the specific tone medical institutions need. AI integrations on patient communication run exclusively on GDPR-compliant EU-hosted models.
Multilingual websites for international clientele?
Standard for Heidelberg projects. German + English (often + French or Chinese) handled properly with hreflang, separate URLs and proper SEO per language market. Content is localised properly per market, not run through a machine translator.
GDPR for AI integrations?
For sensitive data (patient records, client data, research data) I work exclusively with EU-hosted or locally hosted models — no US cloud defaults. If needed, including data protection impact assessment and data processing agreement.
Are you an AI agency or a single developer?
Both in one: you get the range of an AI agency in Heidelberg — AI solutions, AI agents, chatbots and AI workshops — while working directly with the developer who builds it all. One contact from idea to launch.
