LLMs are impressive, but not enough. At DX-Solutions, we combine LLMs, RAG, guardrails, and classical machine learning into safe, reliable, and scalable AI solutions.

Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT or Gemini seem like the perfect solution for every digital challenge. They're powerful, versatile, and ubiquitous. But deploying them in a business context quickly runs into three challenges: 1. Privacy – many commercial models use your data to improve themselves. What if that data is sensitive? 2. Hallucinations – an LLM can sound convincing, but still be wrong. Without attribution, you never know if an answer is correct. 3. Security and reliability – you don't want irrelevant or harmful answers in a production environment. At DX-Solutions, we often see this recurring in customer conversations. Companies want to use AI, but are looking for ways to do so safely, reliably, and cost-effectively.
At DX-Solutions we always start with the same simple but crucial question:
Is this your core business?
Does it offer a unique competitive advantage?
Does it change how you deliver value to your customer?
Does it determine your market position?
Is the answer yes ? Then you build.
If not, you buy or combine existing solutions in a smart way.
Advantages
Maximum control and flexibility
Independent of suppliers' roadmap
Strong competitive advantage when digital processes determine customer experience or efficiency
Pitfalls
Requires a strong team and a clear scope
Takes time, budget and ongoing follow-up
Risk of delay and technical debt if the foundation is missing
For generic needs such as CRM, accounting, and marketing tools, there are powerful, proven solutions.
Why reinvent the wheel?
The key is integration : choose technology that fits seamlessly, keeps your data with you, and doesn't become a silo.
This way you maintain agility and avoid vendor lock-in.
Sometimes we develop unique platforms together with customers that do not exist on the market.
Just as often, we challenge plans when building isn't the right choice.
We then look for a smart mix: existing solutions supplemented with our own microservices, middleware or integration layers.
So it's not about building or buying , but about technology that supports your strategy .
DX Solutions – Reclaim your IT freedom.
Building for the sake of building is a waste of time.
Buying for the sake of buying is risky.
The real art is knowing where to build, what to buy, and how to make both work together.

A West Flemish e-commerce player came to us with a problem.
They had purchased an all-in-one SaaS package for order processing and inventory management. It seemed quick and easy, but after a year they were reaching their limits: the integration with their ERP remained fragile, reporting couldn't be customized, and every little adjustment depended on the vendor's roadmap.
Together with DX-Solutions they made a new plan:
Core functionality (order flows & pricing) : fully custom built as microservices, because that was their unique competitive advantage.
Generic features (invoicing, email campaigns) : retained through existing cloud solutions.
Integration & data : our own middleware to connect everything smoothly.
Result: no vendor lock-in, better reporting and a much shorter time-to-market for new features.

At DX-Solutions, we didn't jump into AI yesterday. Our first AI event was back in 2019. Back then, generative AI was still in its infancy, but we already saw its enormous potential for businesses. In 2023 and 2024, we organized AI hackathons again, exploring with customers and partners how AI can deliver real...
