NIBA Consulting — Custom software · AI integration · AI training

Software builtaround how yourbusinessactually works.

NIBA is a founder-led consulting practice. We study how your work really runs — every human and machine step — before a line of code is written. Then we automate it into one unified application, advise where AI genuinely fits, or train your team to use it well.

01 — Services

Three ways we help.

Every engagement starts the same way: we learn how the work is actually done. What we build on top of that depends on what you need — and sometimes the honest answer is not software at all.

Custom Enterprise Software

One unified application, built from an audit of the real workflow.

We go into your company and audit how the work runs today — a full company audit, or a focused deep-dive on the pain point you name. We map every step, human and machine. Then we automate as much of it as possible into a single, unified application.

Full company audit, or a deep-dive on one named pain point
The current workflow mapped end to end — people and systems alike
A written Software Requirements Specification you review and sign before any code
One unified application that automates as much of the work as possible

Billed by the day or by the hour. Total cost depends on the project.

AI Integration Consulting

A clear, vendor-neutral answer to "where does AI actually fit here?"

For companies that sense AI matters but can't see where it belongs. We assess your existing workflows and tools, and advise precisely how to integrate AI into what you already use — practically, and without allegiance to any vendor.

Assessment of the workflows and tools you already run
Concrete guidance on where AI helps — and where it doesn't
A practical roadmap you can act on, with or without us
Vendor-neutral: we recommend what fits, not what's fashionable

The output is guidance and a roadmap — a build is optional, never assumed.

AI Training & Workshops

Sometimes the answer isn't new software. It's a team taught to work with AI.

Custom, on-site training built for your company — not a generic course. We study your processes first, find the friction, and then train your people to use AI to work more efficiently in the jobs they already do.

On-site, in your company, around your actual work
Built from a study of your processes — company-specific by design
Focused on the friction we find, not a fixed curriculum
For teams that need capability, not another tool

Tailored per company. We'll tell you if training beats building.

02 — How we work

The spec is signed before the code exists.

Most software projects go wrong before they start — built on assumptions instead of observation. Our process removes the assumptions. Four steps, in order, every time.

Audit

We watch how the work really happens.

We study how your business runs — a full audit, or a deep look at the pain point you name. Every step gets mapped: what people do, what machines do, and where the two meet. No recommendations yet. Just understanding.

On-site during an audit — observing where people and machines meet on a shop floor.

Blueprint

The research becomes a written specification.

We turn the audit into a Software Requirements Specification: exactly what will be built, how it behaves, and what it automates. It's written to be read — by you, not just by engineers.

Agree

Clear scope, clear cost — before any code.

We walk through the SRS together, adjust it until it's right, and both sign it. From that moment the scope is fixed and the cost is transparent. No surprises later, no scope creep, no code written on a guess.

Build

One unified application, billed transparently.

We build exactly what was signed: one unified application that automates the work we mapped. Billed by the day, openly — you always know where the project stands.

03 — About

Founder-led, by design.

Most software fails because it's built around an idea of the work — instead of the work itself.

NIBA exists to close that gap. We understand the work before we touch the software: the audit comes first, the specification is signed before the build, and the recommendation is honest — including when it's “don't build; train your team instead.”

NIBA is led by Niklas Baetge, a systems architect who builds AI-driven products and enterprise automation — and who works every engagement directly. When you hire NIBA, that's who shows up: no account managers, no handoffs, no junior team you never met.

Describe the process that's slowing you down — or just the symptom. Niklas reads every message and replies personally, usually with a few questions worth asking before any engagement.
