What an AI consulting firm does
Perception AI is a Paris-based AI consulting firm. We help mid-market teams unify data, automate workflows and deploy reliable AI assistants.
Data unification (IAOO)
Data unification consolidates siloed sources (ERP, CRM, email, files) into a single, governed object model ready for analytics, automation and RAG.
Automation
Automation orchestrates APIs, RPA and scripts to remove repetitive tasks, reduce errors and free operational time.
RAG & AI assistants
RAG connects internal knowledge to LLMs so teams get sourced, auditable answers.
