We have news I have been looking forward to for a long time: KI Learn & Consult becomes Vellmerk.ai ApS. New name, new home, same attitude.
A brief look back. It all started in 2018 with part-time consulting. In 2022 and 2023 came the move into full self-employment. In the years since, an incredible amount has happened, with incredible success, and in parallel the technology has evolved at a pace that has surprised even experts.
When I put my focus on automation, combined with AI consulting, in 2023, hardly anyone knew what n8n or Make was. AI agents were still far off. But the direction was already clear back then: to use AI in a way that creates value, it has to be embedded in your processes, on a sound data foundation. And it is just as clear today where the path leads over the next five to ten years.
We are heading toward organizations that are a combination of human and machine, of natural and artificial intelligence. Embedded in processes, carried by agents, and built on shared data management. Helping exactly here, to shape this change professionally and step by step, is my passion.
With the move to Denmark, the right moment for the next step has come. The new name is a commitment in itself: you stand with your name for your product and your work.
The new location is no coincidence either. Independence is not just a consulting topic for me, but a lived principle. Denmark is among the most competitive countries in the world and the most competitive in the EU, and in 2022 and 2023 it even ranked first globally. Often it has been the unassuming forge of innovation, zeitgeist, and a get-it-done spirit, alongside a high quality of life. I of course stay connected with my network as before, for the German-speaking region, Europe, and beyond.
What stays is the most important thing: the way we work. From the start, the idea behind KI Learn & Consult was to deliver in a collective of freelancers, experts, and doers. Pragmatic, results-oriented, AI-bullish but not naive. Because in many cases the honest answer is that AI is not the right solution at a given point. But often AI is the door-opener to recognize what automation can achieve and where real value is created. That is exactly our expertise.
We do not deliver slides, but solutions that create value. From the first overview to running operations, we do not leave our clients on their own.
“We are AI-bullish but not naive. Sometimes the best AI recommendation is to use no AI at all in that spot.” , Thorsten Vellmerk
In the end, what you get here is analytical consulting that thinks its way fully into the client and their processes, to create real, not just theoretical, value.
This path would not have been possible without a strong environment. Once again, heartfelt thanks to my network, with whom I have had the privilege of working closely over the past years. And an equally big thank-you to our clients, new and long-standing, some of whom we have been accompanying since 2022. Here is to the coming years, in which we will shape and deliver many more projects together.
Not a client yet? Then you have missed out. 😉 Get in touch, whether you already have a concrete idea or just the vague feeling that something should be done. Together we will find the right first steps.
