By strategically integrating Artificial Intelligence, we are enhancing two of our established solutions \u2013 HybridForms and ico\u00bbCMS \u2013 with practical, secure, and high-performance features. Both systems are widely used in organizations with stringent requirements for data protection, efficiency, and accessibility, and now benefit from a range of new AI-powered capabilities.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> For several years, icomedias has specialized in AI applications running on dedicated servers \u2013 for example, in the field of policing \u2013 and deliberately operates independently of US or Asian providers. AI servers are operated either by icomedias or by customers themselves<\/strong>, with suitable Large Language Models (LLMs) and functions selected to ensure consistent results and maximum data protection. This means there are no usage traces with external providers, and internal data never travels over the internet. These features and highly secure applications<\/strong> are now available to a broader customer base through HybridForms and ico\u00bbCMS.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> The HybridForms App & Enterprise Software<\/strong> is used by authorities and in critical infrastructure sectors for structured and secure form processes \u2013 for example, by German police agencies, Austria\u2019s infrastructure company ASFiNAG, and Deutsche Funkturm (DFMG). The solution has been expanded with several analytical AI functions specifically developed for professional use in security-sensitive contexts \u2013 supporting back-office teams:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Transcription for law enforcement agencies:<\/strong> Secure speech-to-text conversion of evidence materials \u2013 including preservation of original files<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Neural precision scans of ID documents:<\/strong> High-accuracy scans of passports, driver\u2019s licenses, ID cards, visas, and other documents with fraud protection \u2013 via Scan Gateway<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Text-to-speech output:<\/strong> Automatic generation of audio files (MP3) on demand or workflow-triggered \u2013 with custom voices<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Image content analysis:<\/strong> Automatic description of image content with detection of persons and age \u2013 for visual evidence<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Document analysis:<\/strong> AI-assisted evaluation of content for tone (sentiment), abstraction, summarization, and qualification \u2013 e.g., for uploaded evidence documents<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Consistency and security analysis:<\/strong> Additional checks across multiple images and documents \u2013 including image-context analysis for risk detection and alerts<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Translation services:<\/strong> Intelligent translations for multilingual content in submitted forms<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> The ico\u00bbCMS Content Management System<\/strong> has supported web editorial teams in public administration for decades in efficient online communication. The CMS, used by organizations such as the State of Styria and the City of Graz, now includes assistive AI features for editors. Two key innovations are:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> AI-powered teaser and short-text generation:<\/strong> Using the integrated AI function, web editors can display optimized suggestions for teaser texts and the so-called \u00bbsimple short version\u00ab of a web article at the click of a mouse. Editors can still customize and edit the AI text suggestion in the CMS input field\u2014or accept it without changes. The use of this AI function is optional \u2013 editors can continue to formulate their content themselves and enter it manually as usual.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Local operation for maximum security:<\/strong> Suggestions are generated on an AI server in our data center in Graz using a local Large Language Model (LLM). The AI suggestions are based solely on the article text, without accessing the CMS or external sources. No data processing takes place in the cloud or via the internet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> The new AI features in HybridForms and ico\u00bbCMS are fully based on on-premises infrastructures.<\/strong> This means all AI models run in controlled IT environments \u2013 on organizational servers or in local data centers. Key advantages include:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Full data sovereignty:<\/strong> All data remains within the organization\u2019s infrastructure \u2013 no exchange with external providers or cloud platforms.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> GDPR and compliance adherence:<\/strong> Local processing ensures compliance with national and EU data protection regulations and industry-specific standards.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> No dependency on third-party providers:<\/strong> No risk from changing terms, pricing models, or automatic updates of external AI services.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Stability and predictability:<\/strong> Local models remain stable and reproducible \u2013 without unexpected changes in AI behavior.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Physical and digital isolation:<\/strong> Systems can operate completely offline \u2013 a critical security advantage for sensitive environments.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>Full data sovereignty and secure on-premises operation<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>
