Our mission

Language is the most fundamental cultural technique in the world, and we are bringing it into the age of AI. Retresco’s vision is to automate language-based business processes efficiently, securely, and scalably. In this way, we help companies worldwide to place their content more effectively, distribute it better, and monetize it more strongly.

AI solutions that measurably increase engagement

Retresco turns content into dialogue: our AI-based solutions open up new ways of finding, using, and monetizing content—in media houses, companies, and e-commerce. We combine semantic retrieval, neural search, and generative AI to deliver precise, context-based answers from large data sets.

Editorial teams benefit from automated article chats, intelligent archive searches, interactive news processing, and dialogue-based research offerings. This brings content to life, actively engages users, and significantly increases the value of existing data sets. Companies strengthen knowledge transfer and service with smart FAQs, chatbots, and interactive knowledge archives. In e-commerce, personal shopping assistants, product-related advice, and interactive catalogs ensure better customer experiences—and open up new revenue potential through dialogue-oriented content offerings.

AI Engage (RAG): Interactive Q&A at the touch of a button

With Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), we transform existing content into high-performance applications: chatbots, Q&A solutions, customer service systems, and research tools deliver reliable answers – transparent, up-to-date, and in line with brand tone.

Intelligent topic management through structured content

Our entity-based content tagging creates clean metadata, a clear content architecture, and targeted topic management. This optimizes findability in search engines and forms the basis for effective SEO and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO).

Scalable text generation: Consistent. Brand-compliant. Automated.

Our AI generates brand-compliant, consistent texts from structured data – ideal for tickers, sports, stock markets, or local reporting. This allows high-quality content to be created in no time at all, increasing reach, relevance, and efficiency.

Our values

Responsible use of AI

As an AI company, we operate at the crossroads of technology, business and society – a field that is as exciting as it is sensitive. As human beings, we have an obligation to use AI responsibly, so it is all the more important for our company to have a detailed, well-founded identity and strong corporate values. Our values reflect our identity as a technology provider, and we have set ourselves the goal of actively embodying these values, both internally and externally.

Expertise & skill

At Retresco, we believe in applying professional expertise and skill to all aspects of our work. What sets us apart is our effective combination of innovative approaches and extensive expertise. Our solutions and customer projects would not be possible without the passion and expert knowledge of our colleagues. We are also focused on ensuring that our technologies are always used in a pragmatic, realistic way.

Innovation & the exchange of ideas

The holistic range of experience that our interdisciplinary team brings to the table allows us to develop innovative solutions effectively. Sharing perspectives and knowledge lays the foundation for efficient, creative work. We use hackathons, retrospectives and continuing education programmes to keep us inspired and engaged with the rapidly changing world of technology we are involved in, and we are always on the lookout for new opportunities to share and expand our expertise.

Appreciation & team spirit

We believe in a company culture that values every member of our team. That means allowing flexible working hours and family-friendly hiring policies that promote a healthy work-life balance. We place a strong emphasis on a work environment characterised by mutual respect, where individual strengths are nurtured and individual desires are honoured. It’s very important to us to give our employees the freedom to work independently, to offer and receive constructive feedback, and to view mistakes as positive things that help us learn.

Research & Ethics

As pioneers in the field of natural language processing, we develop at the interface of linguistics, computer science, and machine learning. In doing so, we adhere to clear ethical guidelines: our AI solutions are responsible, transparent, and secure.
