What AI solutions do
What individual AI solutions do for film productions
An AI solution works according to your fixed process — and acts on its own instead of only making suggestions.
Search & analyze
Screen, classify and store data volumes according to your process.
An individual AI solution is software that uses artificial intelligence according to your fixed process: it searches large data volumes, analyzes and classifies them, automates recurring steps and stores the result where your team needs it. While a standard AI tool works the same for everyone, a tailored AI solution is developed precisely for the specific requirements of your production — from story research to funding acquisition. Every process that follows a clear pattern for you is a possible use case.
Act automatically
Recurring steps run in the background, in real time.
The difference from an AI chat is simple: an individual AI solution does not just suggest, it acts. It works in the background, in real time, according to clear criteria — and gives your team back hours per week that today flow into the same repetitive tasks. That is exactly what makes AI strategically valuable in the film industry: it takes over the invisible work that never appears in the credits and increases efficiency where it matters most.
Tailored
Individually conceived, developed and operated for your workflows.
Tailored means more than an adapted logo: the solution is individually conceived, individually developed and individually operated. Whether a single internal process is automated or a complex application is created across several departments — the AI solution is personalized to your workflows and works as efficiently as a well-rehearsed team. From the first analysis to the creation of the finished system, the focus remains on one goal: measurable added value in your production.
Why standard AI tools reach their limits in production
Most production companies use AI today by having someone type something into ChatGPT or another generative AI and copy the answer back out. That is the beginning, not the goal. A generic AI tool for companies does not know your internal workflow, does not access your existing system and often lets sensitive production data run via US servers. For crew lists, fees, scripts and contracts, that is a problem — because this data is highly sensitive.
An individual AI solution starts exactly there: it integrates seamlessly into existing systems, understands the logic of your industry and works with your internal data — without that data being used to train third-party models. Instead of an off-the-shelf AI tool, you get an application tailored to your specific needs that grows with your production. Even complex workflows can be represented this way, which a standard tool would never capture.
Standard AI tool
- Same feature set for everyone
- Does not know your workflow
- Only makes suggestions (chat)
- Data often runs via US servers
- No connection to existing systems

Where individual AI solutions start in your production
Almost every task that eats time follows a process: clear criteria by which things are researched, sorted and decided. What follows a process can be automated. The following overview shows where an individual AI solution starts in which production phase — and what added value it delivers.
Editorial & story development
Analyze sources according to a process, classify, summarize, detect trends, store them in structured form in databases
Pre-sorted material instead of raw researchCasting
Find type-similar profiles for a reference, pre-sort candidates, compare availabilities
Broader, faster preselectionProduction on set
Staff the team, check availabilities, generate and reschedule the shooting schedule, track working times
Less coordination, more shooting daysDistribution & funding
Evaluate funding guidelines, match festivals, prepare dossiers and submissions
Faster into funding and exploitationThese fields are only an excerpt. Every production works differently — that is why we do not develop a standard solution, but apply AI exactly where you are currently losing the most time.
Practical examples: tailored AI solutions that we have built
connactz develops individual AI solutions for real productions. These examples show what is already possible today when artificial intelligence works according to a fixed process.
Research tool for “Aktenzeichen XY … ungelöst"
“Aktenzeichen XY … ungelöst" lives from cases: the editorial team constantly has to find stories that fit the profile, are checked and cleanly prepared. By hand, that means working through huge amounts of data. For this format, connactz developed an intelligent research tool that analyzes stories according to the editorial team's process, filters hits, structures them and prepares them. The result: the AI researches up to 500 cases per hour, day and night. The editorial team starts every day with a finished list and only curates the most exciting cases.
AI + editorial
Social media story checker for a reportage production
Local broadcasts live from stories from the region — in a volume that no team can search manually. This individual AI solution reviews the 100 highest-reach posts from NRW, classifies them according to a process, detects trends, finds local heroes through their viral posts and stores a structured summary for each hit in a database. Instead of an empty search mask, the editorial team starts with a sorted list of the most relevant stories.
AI + story
AI agent for team staffing and shoot coordination
As soon as shooting starts, the bottleneck shifts from research to coordination. The connactz AI agent staffs your team from your shortlist, contacts people by email or WhatsApp, checks availabilities and collects acceptances and cancellations — automated in the background. The agent does not just suggest, it acts in the app: it creates appointments, stores files and extracts information.
AI + crew
Festival finder and funding assistant
Funding and festivals cost a lot of research. The festival finder matches your finished film with suitable festivals and their submission windows. For funding, the AI supports the evaluation of funding guidelines and the creative writing process for dossiers tailored to each funding body. Instead of working through PDFs upon PDFs, you let it pre-filter and pre-formulate.
AI + fundingWhich types of individual AI solutions we develop
Individual does not mean that every solution starts from zero. We combine proven AI building blocks into a solution that is tailored to your use case. Depending on the task, different technologies are used — from a simple automated workflow to a complex connected application across several internal departments.
Generative AI
Pre-draft dossiers, treatments and funding applications; understand and structure human language
Machine learning
Detect patterns in large data volumes, prioritize stories and cases by relevance
Intelligent automation
Handle recurring processes without manual effort, synchronize data between systems
AI agents
Act independently: create appointments, contact crew, store files
Which algorithms and which model ultimately run is something we decide based on your goal — not based on the latest hype. A personalized AI solution can be a lean tool that is ready to use immediately or a powerful system that is deeply integrated into your existing software. We build what creates the greatest and most sustainable added value and keep the solution as simple as possible.
How we develop your individual AI solution
We build only once all parameters are clear. Our approach is structured and transparent — in every phase, you know what we are working on and what ROI the solution should deliver.
AI potential analysis
We analyze your processes and identify where the use of artificial intelligence pays off fastest. You receive a clear roadmap with prioritized use cases.
Concept & strategy
We define the individual AI solution: which model, which data volumes, which interfaces to your existing systems. Strategic and specific to your goal.
Development & implementation
Our team develops the solution — from generative AI to machine learning and classic automation — and integrates it seamlessly into your workflow.
Maintenance, training & optimization
We train your team, deliver regular updates and optimize the solution in operation. A partner at your side instead of software you have to operate alone.
Your data
is safe.
Crew lists, fees, contracts — sensitive production data deserves real protection. connactz hosts it in Germany and processes AI requests through Mistral in Europe.
What an individual AI solution costs — and when the ROI pays off
The German film and television industry is under massive cost pressure: many productions today have to be produced ten to twenty percent cheaper than just a few years ago. This is exactly where the value of a tailored AI solution lies — it permanently lowers coordination and research costs instead of paying them again and again.
The price of an individual AI solution depends on the scope: a single automated research workflow is fast and easy to implement, while a complex solution across several departments is a larger project. In the free AI potential analysis, we calculate together how many hours per week the solution saves and when the investment pays off. This way, you make your decision based on concrete numbers, not promises.
