Adde.technology appears to be a legitimate boutique consultancy and PropTech operator with physical sites in Austria and Italy. However, the submission is heavily penalized for credible verifiable inaccuracies: claiming 'everyone' as the audience and stating 'most people have used my product' is objectively false for a niche SME. The financial metric ('marketcap: 500000') is ambiguous and seemingly low for a firm operating since 2007 with physical locations. The project 'AncientStorm' appears to be a misnomer or unrelated placeholder. While the underlying business exists, the inflated claims and poor data quality result in a low PoU score.

Description

Assignments are foremostly in the technology, interim/supporting management and strategy areas. On occassion, work is done for investors (including private equity) in terms of due diligence and value creation planning and execution. 2) adde.ai: Incubating, developing and running mainly AI projects that support the rest of adde's operations as well as the operations of selected partners. Over the years adde.ai has successfully incubated projects in the FinTech area and is currently involved in supporting projects in the FinTech area, as well as with projects in the PropTech area developing digital twins for facility management, hospitality, co-living space and guest house businesses. Further projects include AI support for academic and business research purposes as well as a project relating to document digitization and workflow paired with privacy enhancing technologies. 3) semmering-rax.group: This business area operates a number of facility management/Co-Living space/guest house sites. This includes taking full or partial responsibility for the site through a partnership model.

To achieve this, promising AI & IoT supported approaches are leveraged through the application of services supplied by the adde.ai business area. Currently a low double digit number of sites in Vienna, Lower Austria, Northern Italy and Southern Sweden are covered.
