Transcript of the product video “9brains at a glance”

From company knowledge and your systems to agents and apps: see in just over two minutes how your team works with 9brains. All real examples from our demo workspace.

0:00 Your AI knows half the internet. But your travel expense policy? Your ERP? Nothing.

0:06 Like an octopus without tentacles: smart, but it can’t reach anything. 9brains gives your AI the arms: to your company knowledge, your file storage and your systems. Sovereign, on German servers and protected from the US CLOUD Act.

0:22 You get the leading AI models in one place, from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google to Mistral and DeepSeek.

0:30 You decide how strict it should be: GDPR, EU-Only or Global. And if a provider ever goes down, your team simply keeps working with another model.

0:40 Let’s start with knowledge: policies, manuals, instructions, uploaded once. Then your team simply asks in the chat. The answer comes from your travel expense policy, with the source.

0:52 And you can even switch between models in the middle of a chat, depending on the task.

0:57 Your systems take it further. You pick a template, your database, for example, store the credentials encrypted and share the connection with your whole team in one click. Systems in your own building too, securely encrypted via VPN through our On-Premise Connector.

1:13 Now anyone can simply ask: Which customers have a BX-400 with an open service case? 9brains queries your ERP and returns the answer as a table. No export, no SQL.

1:26 This already works with around 40 systems today, and new ones are added all the time: from Microsoft SQL and Odoo to Shopify and DATEV. We connect further systems on request.

1:38 Or you connect a new system yourself, right in the chat. 9brains reads the documentation, asks for your credentials and stores them encrypted. The AI never gets to see them. Share with colleagues? One click.

1:52 And once your data is connected, it works for you: an agent checks the spare parts inventory every morning and lets you know when something runs low.

2:00 And with a single sentence, 9brains builds you an app, such as a service dashboard with your live figures, for the whole team.

2:08 Eight arms, nine brains: 9brains. Try it for free, with all features and integrations.

Custom integration

Automation Layer

Skills, agents and apps for productive workflows.

Skills make recurring tasks repeatable. Agents combine models, knowledge and connected systems into multi-step workflows. Apps turn them into tools your whole team works with.

Skills

Skills are reusable capabilities you teach the AI: a workflow you describe once that is then available automatically in every chat. Examples include an invoice parser for your PDF format, a report in your company style or a connection to your CRM.

Agents

An agent is a persistent digital colleague: its own identity, its own instructions, its own reference files and its own spending limit. You can address an agent in chat for interactive runs or let it run autonomously on a schedule or in response to a webhook. Agents can use every skill and system integration.

Apps

Apps are small tools for a specific task in your team. You describe in the chat what the app should do, and 9brains builds it. It shows live data from your systems, stores shared entries such as hours or schedules, and grows with your requirements through the chat.

Frequently asked questions? Just ask us.

Instead of searching through a long list of questions and answers, chat with us directly: ask your question about 9brains, pricing, data privacy, or integrations, and our AI answers you instantly. What you're experiencing here live is our knowledge management product feature, the same one your team can use to make internal company knowledge available in chat internally and/or publicly.

Prefer to read? The most frequent questions and answers

Can I try 9brains before I commit?

Yes, 7 days free, no credit card. Just sign up with an email and start right away. The whole process takes under 2 minutes. After that you decide whether to keep going. No automatic subscription, no sales call required.

Do I need the Pro or the Business plan?

If you mainly need the secure multi-model chat, Pro (€23.00 per user/month with monthly or €19.17 per user/month with annual billing) is enough. As soon as you need integrations with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace or CRM systems, want to build team knowledge bases or create your own AI agents, Business (€35.00 per user/month with monthly or €29.17 per user/month with annual billing) is the right choice. Both plans are fixed prices: you get unlimited chat with GPT-6 Luna, and you use premium models through the included AI allowance. You can mix licences inside your company as needed. All prices exclude VAT.

What happens when our AI allowance is used up?

No hard stop: every paid license includes unlimited chat with our standard model GPT-6 Luna, even once the monthly AI allowance is used up. The allowance applies to premium models such as Claude or GPT-6.1 Sol. When it runs out, you can buy additional AI credit, move to a larger plan or keep chatting with GPT-6 Luna until the monthly reset. Unlimited use applies in chat, not during the free trial and not for autonomous agent runs.

How does data protection work across the different AI models?

Your data is processed and stored exclusively with us in Germany. The AI models themselves are accessed via APIs. Many of them run on EU servers and can be used in a GDPR-compliant way. A few frontier models that aren't yet available in Europe run on servers outside the EU. Every model is clearly labelled so you always know where it is hosted. You decide which models you want to use and which to enable for your employees. Your data is in any case only stored with us in Germany. All providers are listed as sub-processors in our DPA.

Is my data used to train AI models?

For every model labelled as an EU model: no. This is built into the architecture: your data is only processed at runtime and is not stored by the model providers. For models that run outside the EU, we can't guarantee this. That's why all models are clearly labelled, so you and your data protection officer can decide for yourselves which models are enabled for your company.

How is 9brains different from ChatGPT?

The key difference: with ChatGPT, your company data flows to US servers and is potentially used to train the models. With 9brains, you get GPT and all the other leading models (Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral) via European servers, GDPR-compliant and with no training on your data. On top of that, you get features ChatGPT doesn't offer: internal knowledge management, integrations with your existing tools and an agent builder.

How can 9brains help with onboarding and knowledge management?

Studies show that more than half of all employees would rather ask an AI than a colleague. With knowledge management, you bring all onboarding documents, process descriptions and company policies together in a central knowledge base. New employees ask questions in the chat and get instant answers in any language, 24/7, without interrupting colleagues. On top of that, our gap analysis report shows which questions cannot yet be answered, so you can expand the knowledge base in a targeted way. Available in the Business plan.

Is 9brains available as an app?

Yes. 9brains is available as an app for Android phones and tablets in the Google Play Store. It is included in every plan, including the free trial, and does everything 9brains does in the browser except sign-up and licence purchases. The app for iPhone and iPad is currently in review by Apple and is coming shortly.
