WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗

Problem

Fraunhofer needed staff access to generative AI while protecting organizational information. External AI services raised concerns about data protection and control.

Approach

Fraunhofer introduced FhGenie in June 2023 for analyzing and drafting text. It developed the internal platform with a choice of language models and support for organization-specific information. Processing operated within the European Economic Area.

Results

Nearly 12,000employees using FhGenie regularly, according to FraunhoferCompany's own claim[1]
Over 1 millionmessages exchanged with FhGenie monthly, according to FraunhoferCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

Regular usage established that the platform had become part of staff workflows. Message volume did not establish how much working time it saved.
