Vienna’s AI sector is pretty diverse. Alongside companies offering broad AI consulting and software development, there are smaller teams working in much more specific areas, from geospatial analysis and workflow automation to compliance, marketing, software testing, and reinforcement learning.
That means choosing an AI consulting company here isn’t simply a matter of finding someone who “does AI.” The more useful question is what kind of AI work they actually do. Some teams are better suited to early strategy and experimentation, while others spend more of their time building and integrating systems. Here’s a closer look at the different companies and what each one brings to the table.
1. FlyPix AI
At FlyPix AI, we work with AI-based analysis of satellite, aerial, and drone imagery. Our tools are built to detect, identify, outline, and monitor objects in geospatial images, which makes them relevant to fields such as construction, agriculture, forestry, infrastructure maintenance, port operations, government, and environmental projects. We also work with organizations and projects in Vienna that need geospatial AI for local applications.
A big part of our work involves custom models. Users can annotate the objects they want to find and train an AI model around those examples without having to write code themselves. This makes the platform useful when an off-the-shelf model doesn’t quite match what’s visible in a particular dataset or what a project needs to track.
Hoofdzaken:
- AI analysis of geospatial imagery
- Work with satellite, aerial, and drone data
- Training van aangepaste AI-modellen
- Object detection, outlining, and monitoring
- Applications across several industries
- No programming required for custom model creation

2. AI Superieur
AI Superior handles AI consulting as well as custom AI software development. Its work often starts before anything is actually built. The company helps organizations look at their available data, identify realistic AI use cases, and decide whether an idea is worth pursuing. From there, a project can move through proof of concept, MVP development, integration, and eventually scaling. AI Superior also provides these consulting and development services to organizations and projects in Vienna.On the development side, the company works with computer vision, natural language processing, predictive analytics, business intelligence, big data, and related technologies. Depending on the project, this might involve analyzing images and video, processing text, developing an LLM-based application, or building a forecasting system. The technology tends to follow the specific problem rather than the other way around.

3. AI Factory Austria AI:AT
AI Factory Austria AI:AT works with businesses, research organizations, and public institutions that want to move AI projects beyond the idea stage. Rather than concentrating on one type of application, they provide the infrastructure, technical knowledge, and wider ecosystem needed to develop and test different AI projects. Responsible AI is also part of the picture, particularly when it comes to transparency and quality.
There’s a strong collaborative element to what they do. AI:AT connects people from research, business, and public administration through projects, training, hackathons, and other initiatives. So their role isn’t limited to technical infrastructure. They also create opportunities for organizations to experiment with AI, build internal knowledge, and figure out how a project could work in practice.

4. chim.ai
chim.ai takes a fairly hands-on approach to AI consulting. They work with companies to find places where AI could genuinely be useful, then turn those ideas into working tools or changes to existing processes. Their projects cover things like task automation, data analysis, customer communication, market intelligence, and content creation.
They also run workshops and training for teams that are still getting comfortable with AI. On the product side, their work gets more specific, with tools for multi-agent market analysis, email and CRM workflows, and character-based video generation. One recurring theme is keeping people involved in the process, especially where judgment or approval still matters.
Hoofdzaken:
- Practical AI consulting
- Custom AI tools and agents
- Automatisering van bedrijfsprocessen

5. eMentalist
eMentalist works at the intersection of AI, data, and digital transformation. Companies can bring them in to assess where AI makes sense, develop a data strategy, or work out how new AI initiatives should fit into existing operations. They also address responsible AI and ethics, which becomes increasingly relevant once AI moves from an experiment into day-to-day business use.
Their role can continue well beyond the initial planning stage. eMentalist works on data analysis, process optimization, automation, data management, and the actual implementation of AI and data solutions. They also provide training and certification-related support for organizations that want more AI knowledge inside their own teams.

6. Taibu AI OS
Taibu AI OS is built around a slightly different idea: instead of adding another isolated AI tool, it connects AI with the software a business already uses. A user can describe a goal in ordinary language, and the system breaks it down into individual steps before presenting a plan. For actions such as sending messages or emails, human approval can remain part of the process.
The platform can also handle recurring routines, reporting, file organization, sales activities, marketing work, and administrative processes. Integrations include tools such as Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Slack, Notion, DATEV, Personio, and Microsoft 365. It can work with Claude or ChatGPT and retain context about company processes and previous corrections.
Hoofdzaken:
- AI connected with existing business workflows
- Natural-language goal setting
- Multi-step task planning

8. OptimusFlow Consulting
OptimusFlow Consulting works mainly with businesses that have repetitive processes they want to automate without throwing out the software they’re already using. They look at the current workflow first, find the parts where manual work can realistically be reduced, and then connect AI or automation with existing CRM platforms, Outlook, accounting software, and other tools.
Their projects also cover email and document processing, sales workflows, training, and ongoing monitoring. Depending on the setup, they use platforms such as n8n and Make together with AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Mistral.

9. Predictea
Predictea brings AI together with analytics, reporting, and digital measurement. Their work can start with fairly fundamental questions: What should a company measure? Where would AI actually be useful? And how can the resulting data support better decisions? They also help integrate AI into websites and introduce teams to tools they may use in their everyday work.
Their analytics background is quite visible in the rest of their services. Predictea works with data infrastructure, dashboards, conversion analysis, simulations, forecasting, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, customer journey analysis, and A/B testing.

10. allaboutapps
allaboutapps is primarily a digital product development company, so AI is one piece of a broader software offering rather than the whole story. They develop apps, platforms, and other digital products, covering the process from early planning and design through technical architecture, frontend and backend development, integration, and later updates.
When AI makes sense for a product, they can build it into the wider application instead of treating it as a separate system. They also modernize existing software and work with APIs, backend systems, mobile apps, web frontends, and UI/UX. This makes their AI work closely tied to the practical requirements of a particular product.
Hoofdzaken:
- App and digital platform development
- AI integration within software products

11. Sharobella
Sharobella develops AI-supported business software for companies in Austria and elsewhere in Europe. Their projects include internal tools, MVPs, dashboards, back-office systems, workflow platforms, and other custom applications. Depending on the project, they mix AI platforms and automation tools with low-code development, APIs, databases, and conventional frontend and backend engineering.
Their involvement can continue after a product goes live. That might mean monitoring the system, adding integrations, documenting it, building new features, or scaling it as usage grows. Their software has applications in areas such as logistics, inventory, CRM, compliance, approvals, reporting, order management, and customer support, with tools such as GPT, n8n, and Zapier integrated where useful.
Hoofdzaken:
- AI-supported business software
- Low-code and custom development

12. enliteAI
enliteAI is more specialized than many of the general AI consultancies on this list. Their work centers on applied AI, particularly reinforcement learning, computer vision, and GeoAI. The common thread is taking AI techniques that can be fairly research-heavy and putting them to work on practical industry problems.
One example is Maze, their open-source framework for applied reinforcement learning. Their GeoAI work, meanwhile, includes analyzing mobile mapping data to identify things like road signs, road markings, and road defects. They also apply reinforcement learning to energy infrastructure, including optimization and control problems in power grids.

13. Vienesse Consulting
Vienesse Consulting works with generative AI, data, and digital transformation, covering both the planning and implementation sides of a project. Companies can work with them to develop an AI strategy, explore possible use cases, automate processes, or bring AI models into systems that are already in place.
A project might start with a workshop and a fairly broad discussion of what makes sense, then move into development and integration once the direction is clearer. Their work includes AI assistants, agents, workflows, knowledge management, business intelligence, process mining, IBM watsonx, and data analytics. Training is available for teams that need practical experience with the technology rather than just a high-level introduction.

14. Oski Solutions
Oski Solutions combines AI and machine learning with broader software and cloud development. Their AI consulting includes natural language processing, predictive analytics, machine learning, and automation, particularly when those capabilities need to be integrated into systems a company is already using.
Because they also handle frontend, backend, cloud, and DevOps work, an AI component can sit inside a much larger software project. Typical applications include automating repetitive work, processing business data, adding predictive capabilities, or introducing AI functions into customer-facing software.

15. Seldon Consulting
Seldon Consulting approaches AI as part of a wider data and technology setup. Their work includes AI strategy, machine learning models, LLM integration, predictive analytics, business intelligence, and data architecture. In practice, that means an AI project doesn’t necessarily sit on its own. It can be connected to questions around data quality, governance, reporting, and how information moves through the business.
Automation and infrastructure make up another part of their work. Seldon Consulting deals with workflow optimization, custom automation, cloud migration, DevOps, and scalable architecture. They also cover responsible AI, internal governance, compliance frameworks, and risk assessment. Their experience includes sectors such as e-commerce, financial services, and FMCG.

16. Tricentis
Tricentis has a much narrower AI focus than a general consulting firm. The company develops software for testing and quality engineering, and its AI capabilities are built around those areas. Its AI Workspace gives teams one place to manage AI agents used throughout software testing, including the workflows, policies, and approval stages that govern what those agents can do.
AI is also used across test automation, test management, performance testing, and quality intelligence. So this isn’t really general-purpose AI consulting. It’s more relevant to organizations looking specifically at how AI can change software quality and testing processes while keeping human review and governance in place.
Hoofdzaken:
- AI for software testing and quality engineering
- Central management of AI agents
- Agent-based test automation
- Policies and approval controls

17. LuxActive
LuxActive develops custom software and digital platforms, with AI and machine learning used where they fit the project. Their work spans tourism, energy, mobility, data analysis, and public-sector projects. Before development starts, they can also help with requirements analysis and technology selection, which is useful when the technical direction isn’t obvious yet.
Their projects can include automated analysis, dashboards, APIs, database integrations, and wider process digitalization. LuxActive also works on existing software rather than only starting from scratch. Another part of their portfolio is oHA, a configurable web platform that can be adapted to different sectors and connected to existing systems.

18. Hackabu
Hackabu approaches AI from the marketing and sales side. Based in Vienna, they work on ways to bring AI and automation into processes such as lead generation, lead qualification, CRM workflows, and personalized marketing. Rather than treating AI as a standalone project, they connect it with the marketing and sales systems a company already has in place.
Search visibility is another part of their work. Alongside traditional SEO, Hackabu provides Generative Engine Optimization for visibility on AI-driven platforms such as ChatGPT and Perplexity. They also use AI for response modelling, generating and evaluating different campaign messages for specific audience groups. This work sits alongside performance marketing and broader data-based marketing strategy.

Conclusie
There’s no single type of AI consulting company in Vienna, and that’s probably the most useful takeaway from this list. Some teams work across the whole AI project lifecycle, from figuring out a use case to building the finished system. Others have carved out much narrower areas, whether that’s geospatial imagery, software testing, compliance, reinforcement learning, marketing automation, or analytics.
So the right choice really depends on where a project stands and what needs to happen next. A business that’s only beginning to explore AI may get more value from strategy, workshops, and use-case analysis. A team with a clear idea already in mind might care much more about development skills, integrations, infrastructure, or ongoing technical support. Looking closely at that practical fit usually tells you more than a long list of AI capabilities ever will.
