You searched for "fluado vs Connic." Both are German companies, both host in the EU, both talk about the EU AI Act, and both use the word "agent" a lot. But you're comparing two fundamentally different things: infrastructure to run agents you build, versus agents that already do work.
Connic is a runtime. fluado is a service.
Connic provides agent-native infrastructure — observability, guardrails, human-in-the-loop approvals, cost tracking. You define agents in YAML, write tools in Python, deploy through Git. It's a production platform for engineering teams that want to build and operate their own AI agents.
That's a legitimate product category. But it requires you to have the engineering team, the AI expertise, and the time to build, test, and maintain every agent yourself.
fluado deploys agents that handle operational work from day one. A product specification arrives in Outlook — the agent reads it, validates it against your quality standards in SharePoint, flags exceptions, and routes the result to the right person in Teams. You didn't build that agent. You didn't write YAML. You didn't deploy through Git. You described the work, and the agent does it.
The engineering question
With Connic, your team builds agents, writes tools in Python, manages prompt configurations, monitors traces, and handles production incidents. The platform provides the infrastructure. The work of creating, testing, and maintaining agents stays with you.
With fluado, you work with our team to define what operational work should be automated. We deploy the agents. We handle the monitoring, the audit trails, and the compliance documentation. When something needs adjusting, you talk to us — not to your engineering backlog.
If you have a platform engineering team that wants to run agentic workloads and needs production infrastructure for that, Connic solves a real problem. If you need operational work done and don't want to staff an AI engineering team to make it happen, that's what fluado exists for.
Both are German. Both care about the EU AI Act. The compliance surface differs.
Connic provides EU-only hosting, DPA templates, and SLA scaffolding. That's the infrastructure layer of compliance. But compliance for autonomous AI decisions — audit trails for what the agent did and why, decision logs that satisfy Article 14 human oversight requirements, accountability documentation — that's your responsibility when you're the one building and deploying the agents.
fluado is a managed service. We deploy the agents, we build the audit trails, we maintain the compliance documentation. When a regulator asks about the agent's decisions, the answer isn't "our internal team built it on Connic." It's a structured log maintained by fluado, together with you.
Who we are
fluado is a German company. When you work with us, you work with the founding team. Our phone number is on the website. We pick up.
Connic is building good infrastructure for teams that want to run their own agents. If your challenge is operational — document reviews, compliance checks, specification management — and you want the work done, not the tools to eventually build something that might do the work, that's what we built fluado for.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build fluado-like agents on Connic?
Technically, yes — Connic provides the runtime infrastructure. But you'd need to build every agent yourself: the document parsing, the business rule application, the cross-system integration, the audit trail generation, the compliance layer. Connic gives you the platform. fluado gives you the result.
Does fluado use Connic under the hood?
No. fluado runs on its own infrastructure, managed by our team. We don't resell or white-label third-party agent runtimes.
Both mention the EU AI Act. Who actually handles compliance?
Connic provides infrastructure features that support compliance — hosting in the EU, DPA templates, observability. The compliance responsibility for what your agents do sits with you, the deployer. fluado is a managed service where we share that responsibility. We maintain the audit logs, decision trails, and compliance documentation that the EU AI Act requires for autonomous AI systems.
Which is right for my enterprise?
If you have an engineering team that wants to build and operate AI agents and needs production-grade infrastructure, evaluate Connic. If you need operational work automated and want agents deployed and managed for you, evaluate fluado. The decision is build vs buy.
