The best AI consultants in Berlin 2026: which providers fit SMEs?

In short: Eight Berlin-based AI consultancies and agencies meet the criteria for this overview, ranging from a one-person practice to a nationwide consultancy with its own Berlin office. Only three of them, kiba solutions, MPS Consulting, and Context Studios, publish prices on their own site, starting at EUR 1,490 for a first AI status assessment. This overview sorts the eight by focus rather than by rank, and discloses at the end that we ourselves, Die AI Berater from Hanover, operate in this same market. For a nationwide comparison of twelve providers, see Which AI Consultancy Is Best for German SMEs in 2026?

What criteria does this overview use?

This overview is published by a provider that operates in the AI consulting market itself: Die AI Berater from Hanover, disclosed transparently further below. That is no secret, it is the starting point of this article. We know the Berlin search results from our own research and deliberately sorted by traceable criteria instead of a ranking.

A provider was included only if it met four criteria at once:

• A Berlin office or registered address that can be verified in its own legal notice (Impressum), not just a city-specific landing page with no Berlin address of its own.
• A recognizable AI consulting and/or implementation offering on its own site, not just one of many services of a general agency.
• Evidence of a focus on small and mid-sized businesses (SMEs), for example a dedicated SME page, named reference clients, or an explicit description of its target audience.
• A clear statement of whether prices are published or only disclosed in a personal conversation.

Several candidates from the Berlin search results, including statworx, Ventum Consulting, and codecan.solutions, failed the first criterion: their legal notice lists a registered office in Frankfurt, Munich, or Vienna, and Berlin appears only as one of several cities they advertise, without an address of its own there. That keeps this list a starting point for your own research, not a ranking or a quality judgment.

Which providers build AI agents and custom software?

Two providers in this overview do not start with a strategy document. They deliver software, agent systems, or automation directly for a concrete use case.

Context Studios (Berlin-Charlottenburg) builds, by its own account, autonomous AI agents, multi-agent systems, and custom software for startups, small and mid-sized businesses, and larger teams. Prices are published openly on its site: a Starter package for EUR 2,000 to 8,000, an MVP in four weeks from EUR 18,000, and a Custom Development project from EUR 50,000. contextstudios.ai

KI Beratung Berlin, a one-person practice run by Jerome Suckrow and based in Berlin-Spandau, builds chatbots, AI phone agents, and customer-service automation, with a stated focus, by its own account, on small and mid-sized businesses and GDPR-conscious implementation. The site does not publish prices. ki-beratung-berlin.com

Anyone who already has a clear use case, a chatbot or an internal agent for example, finds a direct implementation partner here rather than an upstream strategy project.

Which providers offer consulting and implementation under one roof for SMEs?

Three providers in this overview position themselves explicitly as small, owner-run practices for SMEs, with analysis and implementation under one roof.

kiba solutions (Berlin, postcode 12157) describes itself as a team of two founders with, by its own account, more than 100 completed SME projects, and as a certified INQA coach since May 2025 and a listed BAFA consultant. Its "KI-Praxis-Sprint" costs, per its own pricing, EUR 3,500 net for three consulting days plus a tested workflow design, with productive implementation billed separately. kiba.berlin

MPS Consulting, a sole proprietorship run by Markus Oelscher in Berlin-Karow, advertises the principle of calculating whether an AI use case pays off before building it. An AI status assessment costs, per its own site, from EUR 1,490, and a full AI audit from EUR 5,000, both as fixed prices rather than hourly rates. mps-berlin.de

KI-Tech Consulting, run by Benjamin Meiler (Berlin-Dahlem), names property management, insurance, care services, and hospitality among its reference industries and offers vendor-neutral software selection alongside its potential analysis. The site does not publish prices; an individual quote follows only after a first conversation. kitechconsulting.de

The common denominator among these three is size: small, owner-run teams without a multi-layered project management structure, but with a direct point of contact from analysis through implementation.

Which providers offer AI strategy, compliance, or a larger Berlin office?

The remaining three providers start with strategy, regulation, or a larger consulting structure rather than building themselves.

KIMI GmbH (KI Beratungsgesellschaft, Berlin-Friedrichshain) positions itself as a specialized AI consultancy for SMEs with a focus on marketing automation as well as GDPR and EU AI Act compliance, explicitly without "oversized projects." The site does not publish prices. kimi.consulting

Neue Werte, a general digital and branding agency in Berlin-Moabit, offers AI consulting as one of several services. Its own site explicitly names small and mid-sized businesses as the target group for a first AI orientation, while technical implementation, by its own account, runs through specialized partner firms rather than fully in-house. neuewerte.de

Cassini Consulting, a nationwide consultancy headquartered in Düsseldorf, runs a standalone Berlin office in Moabit with its own address and phone number. Its "AI, Data & Automation" service line explicitly names mid-sized companies with more than 200 employees as the target group for automation and generative AI. The site does not publish prices. cassini.de

Anyone who needs regulatory clarity first, or wants a larger consulting structure behind them, finds the better entry point here than with a one-person practice.

How do all the providers compare side by side?

The table below summarizes focus, Berlin location, and price transparency for all eight providers, using only information that could be verified on each provider's own site.

Only three of the eight providers, Context Studios, kiba solutions, and MPS Consulting, publish prices on their own site. For the remaining five, the price only becomes concrete in a personal conversation, and our separate article on AI consultant prices and pricing models gives a nationwide overview.

Where we stand: Die AI Berater from Hanover

We belong in this picture too, named separately here for the sake of transparency rather than tucked into a category above.

• Registered office: Hanover, not Berlin. Projects run nationwide, remote, and on site in Berlin when it makes a difference. More on this in AI Consulting Hanover.
• An AI potential analysis at a one-time fixed price of EUR 999, fully credited toward a subsequent implementation. Details at services and prices.
• Consulting and technical implementation under one roof, similar to the category above, just without a Berlin address in our own legal notice.

Whether that is the right choice for a Berlin company depends, as with every provider above, on your own situation, not on where we appear in this list.

How to choose the right provider

Before you decide on one of the eight providers above or on us, five questions are worth asking in a first conversation.

• Does the stated Berlin address actually appear in the provider's legal notice, or is the Berlin page just one of many city landing pages for a company based elsewhere?
• Does the provider name a pricing model, or at least a price range, before you sign anything?
• Who carries out the technical implementation: the provider itself, or is it passed on to a partner firm?
• Is there a traceable reference from a business of a similar size to your own?
• What happens to your data, particularly for locally hosted systems versus cloud-based AI systems?

A provider that answers these five questions openly in a first conversation has already laid the groundwork for a solid working relationship, regardless of whether it appears on this list.
