We build systems that take over your routine
Reading documents, applying rules, deciding cases — and presenting every exception with a reason instead of waving it through.
Developed and operated in Switzerland — in use far beyond it.
Products
Five products. Reading documents is one of them
Each with its own page and its own presentation. We are known for software that reads documents. That is where our offering begins, not where it ends.
Document Intelligence
Reads every document, checks it against your rules and shows why it decided the way it did.
ViewKnowledge Assistants
Answers from your own records — with a source, not a gut feeling.
ViewInbox & automation
The shared mailbox sorts itself — and nothing is left lying around.
ViewDecision Engine
Your rules in one place, applied the same way to every case — and explainable at any time.
ViewBespoke systems
When no product fits, we build the system — from the data model to the handover.
ViewConnection
Your system stays. We dock on
Nobody likes replacing something that works. Our products do not replace your environment — they attach to it. The result lands where your people already work.
What we do
Eight steps. One waits for a person
Alpha Informatik is a house of systems programmers. We build software for businesses that work with documents, messages and rules every day. No black box: every step is visible, every decision has a reason — and at the point where it matters, no algorithm decides.

AUDIT TRAIL
The document is synthetic. What is unambiguous goes straight through — here the system stops before release because a rule applies. After that it is filed where you already work: in the customer file of your CRM, in the folder on the drive or in the spreadsheet.
Who it is for
Eight everyday sentences. If two of them are true, we should talk
Not every company needs this. It pays off where the same work is done by hand every day and where somebody has to answer for it in the end. Read the list — after twenty seconds you will know whether we mean you.
- Documents are retyped even though they have long arrived digitally.
- The same question is answered afresh every week.
- A deadline has already run out because a message was further down the pile.
- Two people decide the same case differently.
- Before an audit you gather documents together instead of showing them.
- One particular person's holiday slows down a whole procedure.
- A spreadsheet holds together something that belongs in the system.
- You pay monthly for functions you never open.
What is behind it
If none of this applies, you do not need us — we would rather say that now than after the third meeting.
Arrange a first meetingWhat does that mean?
The legal basis is the revised Swiss Data Protection Act, and for personal data from the EU the GDPR in addition. We put the data processing agreement in writing before the first document flows — not afterwards.
