Maximum intelligence. Fully automated. AI systems by core.iq

Systems operational
AI and workflow automation from Switzerland

Automationthat thinks ahead.

We automate business processes, with and without AI, and build custom software. For companies in every industry. Our focus is e-commerce, where our systems run almost the entire operation, from goods receipt to accounting.

AI models work inside every automation chain. They read, weigh up and decide, completing whole tasks rather than single clicks.

In plain terms

What takes two hours today
is done in two seconds.

An automation is a step in your work that a program now takes over. Not faster than before, but no longer done by you at all. It starts the moment an order comes in or an invoice lands in the inbox, and it is finished before you hear about it.

This happens at your end
An order comes in at the shop
A supplier invoice arrives by email
A payment lands in the bank account
The systemreads, checks, matches, decides
Done, in seconds
Invoice written and sent
Document booked, with the PDF attached
Payment matched, reminder stopped

Nobody types anything in, nobody clicks start. The log shows what happened, and you only step in for the exceptions.

You set a rule once: when this happens, do that. After that the program carries it out every single time, straight away, at night and at the weekend too.

AI comes in where nothing fits a fixed rule. Every supplier invoice looks different, every customer question is worded differently. AI reads and understands it the way a person would, so the rule still applies.

That is why it does not stop at simple tasks. A process with ten ifs and buts runs through as well, because the system recognises the exceptions instead of failing on them.

74 per cent of Swiss SMEs already use or test artificial intelligence (AXA SME labour market study, 2026). The figures and sources are on the pages AI automation and workflow automation.

A single process, not a project. The first automation usually runs within a few days.

Services

Three ways work
gets done by itself.

We choose the right tool for every task: AI where judgement is needed. Classic workflows where fixed rules are enough. Custom software where standard solutions are too expensive or too rigid.

AI Automation thinks along

Tasks that need judgement

AI models take over work that people used to do. They read documents, check data, write texts, classify cases and decide according to your rules.

Systems that talk to each other

Not every process needs AI. We connect CRM, accounting, shop, warehouse and marketing so that data flows automatically and processes start on their own.

Custom Software own solution

Own tools instead of expensive subscriptions

Where SaaS solutions cause high licence fees or don’t fit your processes, we build the software ourselves. For example a CRM, a customer portal or a warehouse management system (WMS).

Software that fits you.
At a fraction of the licence cost.

Many retailers pay high monthly fees for external warehouse software that only half fits their processes. We build a WMS that maps exactly your processes and connects directly to your shop and accounting.

What changes for you

The difference shows
on a perfectly normal day.

The column “Today” shows the working day as many retailers know it, the column “With core.iq” the same day. The tasks stay the same, only now the system does them.

From the first calls

The three questions everyone asks.

Where this comes from, what it costs and who owns the data.

How do we know this works?

We have automated online shops on Shopify and WooCommerce, from product data through prices and stock into the accounts. On top of that we run our own systems that are in daily use: Product data and content, Prices and promotions, Product compliance checks and core.iq Studio.

What does it cost?

A fixed price per process, instead of billing by the hour. Support optional and cancellable monthly. The binding quote follows after a short look at your processes.

Who owns the data?

On request everything runs in your own account and the credentials stay with you. Otherwise we work as a processor under a contract based on Swiss data protection law. Every action is logged, and you can change who looks after it at any time.

Accounting

Automate bexio,
instead of retyping.

Orders, payments, reminders and receipts go straight into bexio. We connect your shop, payment providers and inbox through the bexio API, with fixed rules, a log for every entry and one clear place for exceptions.

  • Shop to bexio, including credit notes and VAT
  • Reconciling payments from Stripe, TWINT or PayPal
  • Dunning fees and interest per reminder stage
  • Supplier invoices from the inbox

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

In short: what we do, for whom and what it costs.

What does core.iq do?
core.iq is a Swiss company for AI automation, workflow automation and custom software. We automate business processes from the data source to the result in the target system and look after the solutions in live operation.
Does core.iq only work for online shops?
No. Online retail is our focus, where we automate almost the entire operation. We use the same tools in companies of every industry, for example for accounting, sales and CRM, customer service, documents or reporting.
Which AI models does core.iq use?
Depending on the task, Claude by Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek or Google Gemini. We choose the model per task based on quality, cost and data protection requirements.
Which systems can be connected?
Shop systems such as Shopify and WooCommerce, accounting software such as bexio, CRM, warehouse and marketing tools, and almost any software with an API, export, webhook or database access.
How much does an automation cost?
We price projects by scope once we know your processes, at a fixed price per process instead of by the hour. The binding quote follows after a short call.
How does a collaboration start?
With a no-obligation written enquiry. We clarify goals, systems and the biggest bottleneck and then recommend a suitable starting point, usually a clearly defined pilot project.
Where does our data run and what about data protection?
On request everything runs in your own account: the credentials for shop, accounting and bank stay with you and we only receive a support login. If we take over operations, we work as a processor under a contract based on Swiss data protection law. Every action is logged.
Will we depend on core.iq afterwards?
No. In the model with your own account, credentials and processes belong to you and you can change who looks after them at any time. Even from a managed setup we hand over to your own account on request. Monthly support is cancellable monthly.
What happens if an automation does not run through?
It does not fail silently. Faulty or unclear cases land on an exception list, repeatable steps are retried automatically, and every action is logged. As part of the support we monitor the processes and step in before you notice.
