About Us

Practical AI Adoption
for Irish Businesses

Softeire is an AI consultancy based in Ireland. We help small and medium businesses cut admin, automate workflows, and implement AI tools that actually work without enterprise price tags or unnecessary complexity.

Who We Are

We started Softeire because we kept seeing the same pattern: Irish SMEs spending hours every week on repetitive tasks that AI could handle in minutes, but with no clear path to get there. Enterprise AI consultancies were too expensive and too generic. Off-the-shelf tools needed someone to configure them properly.

We bridge that gap. We work directly with business owners and their teams understanding how the business actually operates, identifying where AI can save the most time, and building systems that integrate into existing workflows without disruption.

We're Ireland-based, Ireland-focused. We understand Irish business culture, the SME constraints that come with it, and what realistic AI adoption looks like for a team of 10 or 50 people.

What We Believe

⚙️
Practical over theoretical
We implement solutions that work in the real world, not just demos that look good in a pitch deck.
🔓
No lock-in
We recommend tools that are right for your business not tools we resell or earn commission on.
💬
Plain English
No jargon, no buzzwords, no upselling complexity you don't need. Just clear recommendations you can act on.
☘️
Ireland-first
We understand the Irish market, local regulations, and the specific challenges facing SMEs in Ireland today.

Who We Work With

We work with Irish SMEs with 5 to 200 employees across retail, hospitality, professional services, manufacturing, construction, and more. Our clients are typically business owners or operations managers who know AI is important but aren't sure where to start or who have started with one tool and want to build something more joined-up.

If you're spending too much time on admin, chasing documents, answering the same customer questions repeatedly, or generating reports manually those are the problems we solve.
