AI Agency Sneek
Sneek is the watersports town of Friesland and the service hub of the south-west corner. From the watersports industry on It Ges to the bustle around the Sneekweek: lots of seasonal work, and lots of admin that peaks.
Why now, and why here
Sneek has a broad economy with plenty of SMEs, strong in watersports, tourism and as a regional service hub. That means bookings, reservations and customer queries that ramp up sharply in season.
We start with your process, not with a tool. First we look at where the time goes, and only then do we build. Fixed price, and a human always stays in control.

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.
Processing bookings and customer queries automatically for a watersports or leisure business
Requests via email and form are read automatically: which boat or period, which details, which question. Out comes a draft reply or reservation, set up ready in your system.
In peak season that saves you hours a day on stray emails. The member of staff confirms or adjusts. AI absorbs the peak, the human decides.
This is an example of what we can build for you, not an existing product.

Frequently asked questions
Our work is seasonal, does AI really suit that?
Especially then. AI helps you absorb the peak without having to hire extra people for two busy months.
Do you really drive all the way to Sneek?
Yes. Sneek is about seventy-five minutes from Groningen. We just plan it in and come to you.
What does a project cost?
We work with fixed prices. After a first conversation you know exactly what you get and what it costs.
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.
