# QQuantum.ai > AI systems engineering studio in Barcelona. We design and build the AI systems businesses actually run on — agents, retrieval architectures, automation and the evaluation that keeps them working. We work with enterprises that need AI to survive security review and reach production, and with startups that need working software before the next board meeting. We are model-agnostic and not a reseller for any provider: the model is selected per workload against your constraints, and benchmarked rather than assumed. Founded 2006. Based in Barcelona, Spain; working across the EU and remotely. ## Quick facts - Type: independent AI systems engineering studio (consultancy + build), not a SaaS product and not a model reseller - Founded: 2006, Barcelona, Spain - Clients: enterprises (security review, on-premise / air-gapped deployment, EU AI Act and GDPR constraints) and startups (MVPs, fractional AI engineering) - Core services: AI architectures (RAG, LLM orchestration), autonomous agents, intelligent automation, algorithmic marketing, creative design, rapid prototyping - Model-agnostic: Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek, Qwen and open-weight models, selected per workload and benchmarked on client data - Deployment: cloud, hybrid, on-premise, private data centre and air-gapped -

Where a page describes a compliance framework, it describes controls we implement, not certifications we hold. Figures shown on reference-architecture pages are design targets, not measured client outcomes. We publish this distinction because an unverifiable claim is worth less than an honest one. ## Legal - [Privacy Policy](http://qquantum.ai/privacy-policy): How we collect, process and retain personal data. - [Terms of Service](http://qquantum.ai/terms): Terms governing use of this website and our services. - [Legal Notice](http://qquantum.ai/legal-notice): Who operates this website: identity, contact details and the information required by Spanish law (LSSI-CE). - [Cookie Policy](http://qquantum.ai/cookie-policy): The cookies this site sets, what each one is for, and why there is no consent banner. - [Accessibility Statement](http://qquantum.ai/accessibility): How this site is built for accessibility, what we test against, and how to report a problem. - [How We Use AI](http://qquantum.ai/ai-use): A plain statement of how AI tools are used in our work, in this website, and what we will always tell a client. ## Contact - Website: http://qquantum.ai - Email: hello@qquantum.ai - Location: Barcelona, Spain - Contact form: http://qquantum.ai/contact For detailed capability descriptions, see http://qquantum.ai/llms-full.txt
