Dutch AI

What Dutch AI does

Dutch AI is a privately held AI consultancy and academy based in 's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, founded in 2024 by Heehang Tsui (CEO), Samet Yilmaz (CTO), Jet Smits, and Kemal Yilmaz. The firm operates with a five-person technical team and delivers services across three pillars: AI Consultancy & Implementation (custom AI model development, generative AI and chatbot implementation, AI governance, and AI expert staffing), AI Academy (masterclasses, workshops, and multi-day certified training programs), and standalone products including Scribo (secure AVG-compliant transcription for government and healthcare) and LibreChat on Azure (open-source, self-hostable AI chat infrastructure deployed via Bicep Infrastructure-as-Code with Microsoft Entra ID SSO and EU data zone hosting).

The company's technology stack is built on third-party foundation models (primarily Azure OpenAI, with offline options such as Mistral) and applies standard AI modalities — NLP, computer vision, speech-to-text, RAG-based chatbots, and predictive analytics — packaged through a layer of governance, compliance, and data sovereignty that targets regulated Dutch buyers. Scribo emphasizes GDPR/AVG compliance with self-hosted Azure deployment and zero data retention for AI training. LibreChat is distributed as open source with no product license fee, monetizing through implementation and customization support. The firm's underlying technical differentiator is its Azure security architecture and integration pattern (Entra ID SSO, private endpoints, Bicep deployment templates) rather than novel model development.

Dutch AI's business model is sales-led and professional-services-driven, with all revenue streams classified as consulting or training: implementation projects, AI expert staffing, Academy training, and support services for LibreChat Azure deployments. Pricing is largely quote-based, with published benchmarks of €2,500 per in-company masterclass (up to 70 participants) and €1,895 per participant for the flagship 3-day 'Opleiding AI en Gemeente' program. The go-to-market combines consultative selling (free consultation, offerte requests), event-driven demand generation (workshops, masterclasses, opleidingen), and enterprise field sales for chatbot and AI model implementation. The company targets Dutch government and municipalities (notably through a training distribution partnership with Sdu Juridische Opleidingen), healthcare organizations, and enterprise customers more broadly, and is expanding its commercial reach through documented partnerships with Holla Advocaten (legal expertise) and InIn (data science capability). No funding rounds, acquisitions, or revenue figures have been disclosed.
