AI consulting in Barcelona
We listen to your business and improve it with AI
We help you decide where artificial intelligence adds value to your business, then build it until it works in production. No reports left gathering dust.
What an artificial intelligence consultancy does
An AI consultancy analyses an organization's processes, data and systems to find which tasks artificial intelligence can solve with a clear return, and supports the implementation from start to finish. The goal is not to "have AI", but to save hours, reduce errors and make better decisions.
Value Up AI is an AI consulting firm based in Barcelona that combines strategy and engineering in the same team. The people who run the assessment are the people who build the solution: AI agents, chatbots, process automation with n8n, ERP and CRM integration or Power BI dashboards.
We work with SMEs and mid-sized organizations in Barcelona, across Spain and Europe, and in the United States, on site or remotely, in English, Spanish or Catalan.
What our AI consulting includes
Assessment and roadmap
We review your processes, data and systems and prioritise AI use cases by impact, cost and risk. You leave with a phased plan.
AI agents and chatbots
Assistants that answer, classify, draft and act on your systems: customer service, WhatsApp, order handling or internal support.
Process automation
n8n workflows and language models that remove manual work: reading documents and invoices, email, onboarding, reports.
Data and integration
There is no useful AI without organised data. We connect ERP, CRM, SQL databases and shop-floor sources (SCADA) into a reliable base.
Business Intelligence
Power BI dashboards and automated reporting to measure the impact of every initiative with real KPIs.
Training and adoption
We train your team to use and maintain what we deliver, and help you comply with the GDPR and the EU AI Act.

How much does AI consulting cost?
It depends on the scope, but you will always know before we start. We work with three models:

Hours bank
Monthly hours for recurring or exploratory needs: your AI team without having to hire one.
Technical partner
We join your team, or your consultancy's, on complex or long-term projects.

Frequently asked questions about AI consulting
What exactly does an AI consultancy do?
It analyses the organization's processes and data, identifies where artificial intelligence can save time or improve decisions, prioritises those use cases by return and supports their implementation until they work in production.
Is AI only for large organizations?
No. We work with SMEs and mid-sized organizations. With tools like n8n and current language models, automating a specific process is affordable for small businesses and usually pays back within a few months.
How much does AI consulting cost?
It depends on the scope. An assessment or a focused pilot is quoted as a fixed-price project; for ongoing needs we offer an hours bank. You always know the cost before we start.
How long until we see results?
A pilot on a well-chosen use case is usually running within a few weeks. Larger projects are delivered in phases so you see value from the first delivery.
Do you only work in Barcelona?
We have an office in Barcelona and work on site in Barcelona and Catalonia. With organizations elsewhere in Spain, in the United States and in other countries we work remotely, with visits when the project calls for it.
Are you an AI agency or an AI consultancy?
Both. As an AI consultancy we help you decide what is worth doing and in what order; as an AI agency we build and deploy it ourselves, without outsourcing. That is the difference from an agency that only executes or a consultancy that only delivers reports.
What about the privacy of my data?
Every solution is designed to comply with the GDPR and the EU AI Act. When the case calls for it, we use models hosted in Europe or on your own infrastructure.
Do I need clean data before starting?
No. If your data is scattered, integrating and cleaning it is part of the work. We assess it in the initial diagnosis.
Shall we talk about AI for your business?
