AI software studio from Munich

Bespoke software that used to be out of budget.

01What’s changed

Custom software is no longer a luxury

AI-assisted development has quickly reset what a software project costs and how fast it ships. SMEs benefit the most.

Before

  • Custom software needed big budgets and long timelines
  • Off-the-shelf software meant compromises—processes bent to the tool
  • Costly servers sized for worst case scenarios
  • New features depended on a vendor’s roadmap

With Cronema

  • Your own solutions in a fraction of the time, thanks to AI-assisted development
  • Software that adapts to your processes—not the other way round
  • Dedicated cloud servers in Germany; costs scale with your success
  • Enhancements in days instead of months, whenever you need them

02Services

From websites to system software

04Own systems

Your system. Your server. Your rules.

Why a dedicated, self-contained system pays off for more and more companies.

Tailored

Workflows, terminology, and interfaces exactly as you need them. No bloat—and no missing essentials.

Secure

Not a widely targeted standard platform that bots scan for known exploits. Plus a hardened, dedicated server.

Extensible

New—even complex—features are delivered quickly. Your system grows with your ideas, not a third-party roadmap.

In Germany

Your data resides in German data centers. Privacy isn’t an add-on—it’s the foundation.

05Hosting model

Start small. Scale with success.

For every system we provision dedicated cloud servers with Hetzner in Germany. That lets you start with a modest hosting budget.

As usage grows, we scale the servers with a few clicks. Costs only grow with our customers’ success, not before.

  • Dedicated servers per client, data separated
  • Data centers in Nuremberg and Falkenstein
  • Backups, updates, and monitoring included

07Cross Net Management

Connecting has always been our thing

Cronema stands for Cross Net Management. We’ve carried the name for about 15 years—and it fits better than ever.

Back then it meant linking and controlling systems across networks. Today we connect shops, CRMs, databases, and AI agents into solutions that operate autonomously. The principle remains: we bring together what belongs together—and keep it running reliably.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI software studio?

We build software like a classic agency—but we lean on AI tools throughout, especially Claude Code. The AI handles a large share of the coding; we plan, review, and take responsibility for the result. That’s how bespoke solutions ship faster and more cost-effectively.

Which companies does Cronema work with?

Small and mid-sized businesses that want more than off-the-shelf: merchants on Shopify, service providers using CRMs like GoHighLevel or HubSpot, real estate agencies, agencies, and companies with unique processes.

Is software developed with AI truly professional?

Yes—when built the right way. We use proven technologies, review every change, rely on type checking and tests, and run systems on hardened servers. Our own apps work247, Bookique, and GARAN-Label run exactly like this.

How much does a project cost?

It depends on scope—from a landing page to a fully bespoke system. Thanks to AI-assisted development, costs are well below classic agency rates. After an initial call you’ll get a clear, transparent estimate.

Where do the systems run?

On dedicated cloud servers with Hetzner in German data centers. Every client system gets its own servers. You start small—and costs only grow with your success.

Can you extend our existing system?

Yes—that’s one of our specialties. We build apps and extensions for Shopify, GoHighLevel, HubSpot, and other platforms with open APIs.

What’s the difference between an AI agent and automation?

Classic automation follows fixed rules: if A, then B. An AI agent also understands content—like an email or a document—and decides what to do within your guardrails. We combine both with n8n, Make, Zapier, or custom integrations.

How quickly can we start?

Usually within a few days of the first conversation. You’ll typically see an early prototype very soon in the project.
