What rhyno solutions does

rhyno solutions AG is a Swiss IT consulting and software company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Schaffhausen, Switzerland. The firm operates a three-pillar portfolio: (1) SAP Technology Consulting, covering strategy, design, implementation, and ongoing operation of customized SAP environments; (2) Edi (Expense Intelligence), a SaaS expense management platform that automates and digitizes the full expense process; and (3) Sophie, a conversational AI HR assistant chatbot that supports voice, text, and image-based interaction across messaging and web channels and integrates into existing enterprise system landscapes. The company is ISO 27001 certified and holds the Swiss Made Software label, positioning it for security-sensitive enterprise and public sector buyers.

The company targets three customer segments — established enterprises (primary), technology-oriented start-ups, and public institutions — primarily within the DACH region. Go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, combining direct enterprise sales with partner-driven referrals, supported by membership in the SAP Partner ecosystem and a network of 12+ named partners including HR Campus, Epi-Use, Viseca, Amnis, and Cornèr. Revenue is generated through a mix of professional services (SAP consulting) and recurring SaaS subscriptions (Edi and Sophie), with no public pricing disclosure.

The company is founder-led: Fabrice Bircher serves as Managing Director with Nils Tosoni and Carim Chenna as co-founders. Ownership appears concentrated among the founding team with no institutional or VC investors identified in the available data. Headcount sits in the 11–50 range, and the firm runs an apprenticeship program in application development, indicating an early-growth, talent-building posture. The customer logo wall features large DACH institutions such as AXA, BMW, SBB, Zurich Cantonalbank, Volvo, Helvetia, ERGO, ETH Zurich, OBI, Cornèr, and DER Tour Group, though it is not specified whether all are direct paying customers of rhyno or partners.

Broad incumbents

• Accenture (SAP practice): Global systems integrator with the largest SAP consulting practice globally. Overlaps with Rhyno on enterprise SAP implementation work but operates at vastly larger scale across all major industries and geographies.
• Deloitte (SAP practice): Big Four firm with significant SAP S/4HANA and enterprise application consulting practice. Competes for the same enterprise SAP engagements as Rhyno but as part of a much broader advisory and implementation portfolio.

Direct peers

• All for One Group: Public DACH SAP partner specializing in SAP S/4HANA and HR digitalization with HCM focus. Comparable because it pairs SAP consulting with recurring HR and finance software — directly mirroring Rhyno's combined SAP consulting plus Sophie/Edi positioning.
• Yokoy: Swiss-headquartered AI-driven expense management SaaS platform. Directly comparable to the Edi expense management product as a DACH-headquartered competitor targeting enterprise expense automation.
• Rydoo: European expense management SaaS provider serving mid-market and enterprise clients. Comparable to Edi's expense management functionality with similar target buyer and broader geographic footprint.
• msg systems AG: Large German-based IT consultancy with deep SAP practice serving DACH enterprises. Directly comparable as a SAP consulting peer operating in the same regional market, but with materially larger scale and broader service portfolio.
• SVA System Vertrieb Alexander GmbH: German SAP partner with enterprise focus across multiple verticals. Comparable as a similarly positioned DACH SAP boutique with implementation and managed services offerings.
• abat+ AG: German SAP consultancy focused on automotive, manufacturing, and logistics verticals. Comparable as a DACH-region SAP boutique competing for similar enterprise digital transformation engagements.
• ConVista Consulting AG: Swiss-headquartered SAP consulting boutique with comparable DACH focus and SAP technology specialization. Comparable as a similarly sized boutique SAP consulting peer operating in the same Swiss enterprise market.

Emerging players

• Paradox (Olivia): Conversational AI platform for HR and recruiting with its Olivia assistant chatbot. Comparable to Sophie's HR chatbot positioning, though Paradox focuses on recruitment while Sophie targets broader HR communication.
