LOKI runs fully locally on your hardware. It finds consignment notes (Begleitschein), certificates of analysis, weighbridge tickets, the operations log (Betriebstagebuch) and mailboxes with a single question. Every answer names its source.
Customer Sailer’s disputing the credit note for his delivery from 12 March. Which analysis is it based on?
The delivery ran under batch 8107, the weighbridge ticket lists 412 kg [1]. The sampling record documents the split and the retained sample [2]. The certificate of analysis from 14 March states the content the credit note is based on [3].
The Efb audit’s coming up next week. Are the consignment notes from Q1 all acknowledged?
The register counts 214 consignment notes in the first quarter, three of them without a receipt of acceptance [1]. All three belong to two transports from 18 February, the email thread with the carrier sits right next to them [2]. The associated disposal pre-approval (Entsorgungsnachweis) runs until August 2027 [3].
Have we ever taken in contaminated cable granulate before? How did we handle it back then?
Yes, in summer 2023 [1]. The operations log records the blocking and the re-sampling [2]. The classification was agreed with the lab; the email gives the reasoning and points to the authority’s notice [3].
From family-run businesses to DAX corporations. Machine building, chemicals, and the public sector.
Official inspections, customer trust and your margin all hang on it.
Who delivers, in what quantities, on what terms: in the circular economy, the customer directory is the business. Precious-metal purchasing adds identification documents under the German Anti-Money-Laundering Act (GwG), mandatory from 2,000 euros in cash.
Consignment notes, disposal pre-approvals and the operations log are open to official inspection and must be kept for at least three years. In a dispute, they are your defense.
Certificates of analysis, yields and processing parameters show what you get out of a tonne. That is your margin, and it belongs in no third-party data center.
Consignment notes in the eANV portal (Germany’s electronic waste-tracking procedure), weighbridge tickets in the ERP, analyses in the lab, the operations log as a PDF, agreements in the mailbox. The authority may ask at any time, and the register has to be able to answer three years back.
The Efb audit takes place at least yearly, with a site walk-through and spot checks into the documentation. Add customer audits, and anyone shipping waste across borders has been working in the digital notification procedure via DIWASS since May 2026. Whoever first has to gather their records loses audit days.
Accept or reject, classify, re-sample: decisions like these rest on past cases, official notices and lab agreements. Those sit scattered, and the colleagues who carry them in their heads will leave at some point.
When a credit note is disputed, the chain has to stand: weighbridge ticket, sampling, analysis, posting. Whoever can’t document it quickly ends up negotiating instead of proving.
The knowledge is in the building. It just sits in the eANV portal, the ERP, the lab, the operations log and the plant manager’s mailbox all at once.
Your knowledge lives in four worlds that don’t know each other: records in the eANV portal, weighbridge tickets and postings in the ERP, analyses in the lab, notices and agreements in the file share and the mailbox. LOKI lays one search across all four, fully on your hardware, with a source citation for every answer.
eANV register, weighbridge ticket, certificate of analysis, mail thread.
LOKI opens up all four, following your role-based access.
No system knowledge, no file names, no folder hunting.
Every statement carries the source it came from.
One question. Four archives. One answer that tells you where it knows it from.
Tuesday, 8:10 a.m. The Efb audit starts in one week. Three consignment notes are unacknowledged.
Customer Sailer’s disputing the credit note for his delivery from 12 March. Which analysis is it based on?
The delivery ran under batch 8107, the weighbridge ticket lists 412 kg [1]. The sampling record documents the split and the retained sample [2]. The certificate of analysis from 14 March states the content the credit note is based on [3].
The audit binder cites the register instead of memory: consignment notes, receipts, pre-approval validity periods.
Your team wants to work with the best models, and does so anyway, if need be around the official toolbox. LOKI turns that into an official path: you connect external models, and every request passes through a check first. Names, order numbers, part identifiers and amounts are detected and redacted before the prompt leaves the building.
Draft reply to Sailer Metalle[CUSTOMER] on the disputed credit note: explain the analysis for batch 8107[BATCH] and back up the sampling from 12.03.[DATE] with the retained sample.

Name recognition and configurable patterns find what must not go out.
The user sees in the chat what was found and chooses: send anonymized, send unchanged, or cancel.
Every call is in the log, with user, model, time and the result of the check. Including the cancelled ones.
And this is what the switch looks like in the product: choose a cloud model and it tells you right above the input field.
That’s the difference between a ban that gets bypassed and a path you’re allowed to take.
We don’t have to vouch for the architecture ourselves. The conference of Germany’s data-protection authorities (DSK) described it before we built it.
The DSK’s guidance on AI and data protection states that technically closed systems are preferable from a data-protection perspective: in open systems, the input data leaves the users’ protected environment. With LOKI it doesn’t.
Inside a language model itself there is no way to control who may see which information; the supervisory authorities state this explicitly. In the knowledge system in front of it, tenant separation and role-based access do work. That’s why LOKI is built this way. And that’s why individual entries can be deleted deliberately instead of disappearing into a model.
Tracking of hazardous waste has run electronically since 2010, the Efb audit checks the documentation yearly, and since May 2026 the EU Waste Shipment Regulation has been switching to the digital DIWASS procedure. Anyone buying precious metals also carries due-diligence duties under the GwG, and as an importer under the EU Conflict Minerals Regulation. A stack that runs entirely on your premises answers the data question in each of these procedures with one sentence.
The regulators call this a mitigating measure, not a blanket solution, and name open questions around transparency and data-subject rights. We put it exactly the same way.
Without you changing your system landscape.
LOKI replaces none of these systems; they stay in charge. The qualified signature stays in the eANV. LOKI makes findable what lies between them, and turns it into finished documents: the audit binder, the reply on the credit note, the history of a customer account.
LOKI assembles the chain: weighbridge ticket, sampling record with retained sample, certificate of analysis and the posting of the credit note, every item with its source.
You prove instead of negotiating.
Unacknowledged consignment notes, remaining validity of disposal pre-approvals, gaps in the operations log: LOKI delivers the status and source of every record. You find the gaps before the walk-through, rather than during it.
The audit checks the chain of records, not your search speed.
How was the 2023 case classified, what did the lab say, which notice applied: LOKI finds the acceptance record, the lab agreement and the notice before the load has to leave the yard.
The decision rests on evidence, not on memory.
Likewise: assembling notification files for cross-border waste shipment · pulling proofs of origin for conflict-minerals inquiries · keeping GwG documentation findable · keeping track of conditions from permits under the German Immission Control Act (BImSchG) per installation · compiling volume reports for authorities and schemes
With our locally installed AI assistant from IGNAITE, our employees can access company knowledge much faster. For example, information from past projects. This enables higher productivity and, above all, more comprehensive knowledge sharing.
In our collaboration with IGNAITE, we built a practical, high-performance computer-vision solution that has sustainably improved our incoming-materials processes. What particularly convinced us was the structured approach, the deep process understanding, and the ability to translate complex requirements into pragmatic solutions.
LOKI opens up what has been written down. At intake and at the plants, though, much arises that never makes it into a document: what lies on the belt, how the furnace runs, when the line stood still. MINERVA is our track for that: camera and sensor solutions on site, in your own network, up to AI-supported classification of material right at intake. The results become sources LOKI can cite. The classification of a delivery turns into a record with a source.
Extendable with MINERVABoth products follow the same principles: sovereign, source-based, local. You start with one and add the other when you need it.
From signing to productive operation in under four weeks — without touching your scale, plant equipment or eANV procedures.
We look at where your records live (eANV portal, ERP, lab, operations log, mailboxes) and tell you honestly what LOKI can open up from them.
The hardware goes behind your firewall. File shares, ERP, lab archive and mail server are connected, without touching the scale, plant controls or the waste-tracking procedure.
We hand over only once it runs production-ready. The EU AI Act has required you since February 2025 to train your staff in the competent use of AI; we deliver that training.
No. Waste tracking, including the qualified signature, stays in your eANV portal; LOKI changes nothing there. It makes the contents findable: the consignment note for a batch, the pre-approval with an expiring deadline, the register extract for the audit.
No, that is a deliberate boundary. Classification and acceptance decisions stay with your experts. LOKI delivers the groundwork: the past case, the lab agreement, the notice, each with its source.
Only your own AI. LOKI runs on your hardware behind your firewall: no upload, no API call to OpenAI, Anthropic or Google, no training by third parties. Role-based access governs who in the building sees what: intake sees no terms, the workshop sees no customer accounts.
Identification documents are personal data with a retention obligation. With LOKI they stay in the building and follow role-based access: findable for those who have to check them, invisible to everyone else.
No. Scanned documents are processed with text recognition. With handwritten entries the hit rate drops. We tell you that up front instead of promising otherwise.
A fixed monthly price plus a one-time setup fee that includes the server hardware. The license covers unlimited users. There are three packages that differ in hardware sizing. Operation, maintenance, updates and support are included. We’ll give you the specific price in the intro call.
The industry pages show LOKI in the everyday work of individual industries. If yours is missing, that only means we haven’t written it up yet.
30 minutes, an honest assessment. No slides, no sales pressure. We’ll also tell you if LOKI isn’t the right step for your data situation yet.
