AI Agency Bedum
Bedum is home to the most crooked tower in the Netherlands and a strong dairy tradition. We help entrepreneurs here with AI that is as down to earth as the village itself.
Why now, and why here
Bedum once grew around the Boterdiep and the cooperative dairy factory, at one point the largest independent milk factory in the Netherlands. Today it is a village of SMEs, farming businesses and service providers a short distance from the city. These are businesses with plenty of admin and customer contact where AI wins time straight away.
We put the process first, not the tool. First we look at where the work gets stuck, and only then do we decide which kind of AI fits. That way you get something that works on the shop floor, not just on paper.

Read moreExamples of what we build
Every business has its own headaches. This is the kind of thing we build. Examples, not off-the-shelf products. We always start with your process.
Smart email handling for an agricultural service provider
All incoming mail is sorted automatically: requests, invoices, questions from regular customers. An AI assistant proposes a draft reply for each email based on your earlier responses.
That saves hours a week on sorting and typing. Your employee reads, adjusts and sends: the human decides, the AI prepares.
This is an example of what we can build for you, not an existing product.
Close by, from Groningen
Bedum lies just above the city, so you are there in about a quarter of an hour. That makes visiting easy: an introduction, a workshop or implementation we do in company at your place.
A short line of contact, fixed prices, and someone you can simply call.

Frequently asked questions
Does AI work for a small business in Bedum too?
Yes. The smaller the team, the more recurring work weighs. That is where AI helps fastest, as long as you start small and concrete.

In about a quarter of an hour from the city of Groningen. We come over for an introduction, workshop or implementation on site.
What does it cost?
We agree fixed prices in advance. So you always know where you stand before we begin.
Meet Empathree
Empathree is an AI agency from Groningen. We help SMEs use AI not as a toy, but as something that genuinely takes work off your plate. Always with a human checking the output.
What we believe
AI is fast, but speed alone delivers nothing. The value sits in the last 30 percent: judgement, nuance, knowing which question to ask. So we never start with a tool. First we map your process, then we look at where most time leaks away, and only then decide what AI handles and what stays human work.
How we work
We work at fixed prices, no billing by the hour. You know where you stand up front. We often start with a workshop to get your team on board, then build a working system step by step, and make bespoke software where it pays off. In our own Empathree Studio we build in our developers' coding style, so everything ships secure and production-ready.
Who you get
Behind Empathree are Marc Cornelius, Maarten Oostland and René Vrieling. Marc and Maarten handle strategy, workshops and implementation, René is the lead developer who makes the software watertight. All three of us live in Groningen, so you deal with local people who build with AI every day. We only teach what we use ourselves.
Why humans in the loop
The world is filling up with automated AI slop. Our answer is simple: the human stays in the loop. With us, and with you. That is how you keep control, quality and trust, even as the technology keeps getting faster.
