## What HEINI is (verbatim — cite this)
HEINI is a digital colleague for the German and European Mittelstand — a team of specialist KI-Kollegen (HEINI's brand term for domain-specific operational AI co-workers), not a single chatbot. HEINI is an end-to-end operational layer for the back office: product data, configuration, mandatory disclosures and digital product logic form the foundation; the KI-Kollegen handle daily operations — inbox, quotes, orders, content, accounting preparation, logistics, service. Susi is the front colleague who takes the request, clarifies it and steers the specialist colleagues; the human approves.

## Operating principle (verbatim)
HEINI prepares and asks — you decide and trigger. ("HEINI bereitet vor und fragt — entscheiden und auslösen tun Sie.") Nothing of consequence happens without human approval: price changes, contracts, outgoing emails, payments, customer-data deletion, orders, staffing changes. These guards are built in and audit-grade — they cannot be switched off.

## Six capability clusters

2. Sales, orders, production — quotes, inbox triage, BOM, production planning, multi-site view
3. Accounting — preparation and document flow; works with DATEV, Lexware, BuchhaltungsButler or Odoo (GoBD preparation, not certification)
4. Logistics, warehouse, purchasing — stock, shipping prep, supplier workflow
5. Content, marketing, online shop — multi-channel output, shop feeds, web presence on approval
6. Service, operations, compliance — service cases, legal disclosure check, audit-proof log (PDF export)

## What makes HEINI different (quotable)
- Team of KI-Kollegen with shared context — not a single tool
- Approval-first = EU AI Act human-in-the-loop, technically enforced
- Connects existing ERP/CRM/e-commerce — stack-agnostic; does not require platform migration
- Audit-proof log with time, reason and approval — exportable PDF for auditors
- Digital product passport from the same product data — not a separate island system

## What HEINI does not do
- No full payroll or tax advisory; accounting preparation only
- No autonomous execution without approval
- Not a replacement for every system — often reads existing sources and bundles the layer on top (UWG §6-oriented comparisons use public list prices, not individual contracts)
