In addition, WinLine AIDA can assist with evaluations, decision-making, and process optimization.

How is AI securely integrated into WinLine?

To do this, you need a digital access key, known as an “API key.” It establishes a secure connection between WinLine AIDA and the AI service being used. It also ensures that only authorized applications can access the AI functions and clearly defines which requests are processed.

The advantage of an API key lies in security, control, and transparency: access can be clearly assigned, usage tracked, and costs accurately billed. At the same time, companies retain full control over which AI service is used within the company and how company data is processed.

You can obtain the API key directly from the respective AI provider you wish to use with WinLine AIDA. Once created, it is stored once in WinLine and used for secure communication between the ERP system and the AI.

The following AI tools are currently integrated into WinLine: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude.

How is my data protected when AI is used in WinLine?

For an AI assistant to be used effectively in WinLine, it must be able to work with sensitive company data in a secure and controlled manner. This is precisely where a key technical component comes into play: the local MCP server, which includes an integrated RAG system. It serves as the communication bridge between WinLine and the cloud-based AI (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude).

Local MCP Server -
The Heart of Secure AI in WinLine

The local MCP Server serves as the central hub between WinLine and the AI. It ensures that all requests between your WinLine and the AI services in use are processed securely, in a controlled manner, and with full traceability.

Instead of data flowing unchecked into various systems, everything remains within a clearly defined structure: The MCP Server decides which information is passed on, prepares it in a comprehensible format, and returns the results cleanly back to your system.

What does this mean specifically for your company?

  • Security and Data Sovereignty
    Your company data remains under your control. Nothing leaves the system unchecked.
     
  • Clear translation between systems
    The MCP server ensures that ERP and AI “speak the same language”—automatically and reliably.
     
  • Orderly AI use instead of chaos
    Multiple AI services can be integrated without processes becoming confusing.
     
  • Reliable results in everyday operations
    AI does not operate in isolation but is embedded in your existing business processes.

Integrated RAG System – Targeted Insights from Your Business Data

The RAG system integrated into the MCP Server acts as an intelligent bridge between ERP and AI. It ensures that the AI receives only the information it truly needs for a specific query, searching for relevant data within WinLine, such as

 

  • Documentation and manuals
  • Analyses and reports
  • Customer and project data
  • Contracts and quotes
  • Emails and internal notes

This information is then appropriately processed and made available to the AI. This results in precise answers based on your current company information from WinLine.

What benefits does the RAG server offer your company?

  • Faster answers
    You receive results directly from your own data - without lengthy searches.
     
  • Greater accuracy
    The AI does not work with general information, but with your current company data.
     
  • Better decisions
    Analyses and connections are brought together in a clear and understandable way.

    Only the information that is truly relevant to the specific query is used.
