Stridewall is a consultancy for AI adoption in the German Mittelstand. We are small, and we are new. That is written here because you would notice anyway, and because it matches how we work: we say what is.
We cannot show you a wall of twenty client logos. We can show you a method that proved itself in our first engagement, at a listed German real-estate group. There we found what many studies now confirm: nine out of ten employees were already using AI, six out of nine did not know the data rules, and average self-rated skill was 2.3 out of 5. Our approach grew out of that finding, and it is the approach we work with today.
Our principles
- We name clients only once we hold written approval. Even when the name would look good.
- We do not promise headcount reductions. Honest answers from your departments are the raw material of our work, and nobody answers honestly while fearing for their job.
- We recommend only tools we use ourselves or have tested.
- When AI is the wrong instrument for a problem, we say so.
Why a young firm
The market for AI consulting is full of large promises and borrowed experience. We prefer it the other way around: small promises, our own experience. Every engagement is handled by the people you speak to in the first call. There is no sales team that hands over, and no junior team that takes over.
