CHAT-KI – AI for Inclusive Employment
Helping employers find funding for inclusion and workers with disabilities discover the support they deserve.
Context
The founders of entender.IA, Jens and Natalie Beyer, have been delivering human-centered AI solutions since 2016 through their German company LAVRIO.solutions GmbH. This flagship project demonstrates the expertise they bring to entender.IA—and is directly transferable to our mission of building accessible AI for vulnerable populations.
The Challenge
In Germany, people with disabilities and employers face a complex landscape of support programs, subsidies, and legal entitlements. Information is scattered across multiple agencies, written in bureaucratic language, and difficult to navigate—especially for those who need it most.
The Solution
CHAT-KI is an AI-powered chatbot that makes disability employment support accessible to everyone. Using natural language processing, the system understands user questions, searches through official sources, and provides clear answers with full source citations. Key accessibility features include voice input/output and easy-to-read language options.
Our Founders' Role
Through LAVRIO.solutions, our founders led the technical development of the AI system, implementing human-centered design principles throughout. They developed the retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) architecture ensuring all answers are grounded in official sources, and created the explainability layer that shows users exactly where information comes from.
