Why Data Quality Determines Success or Failure

Many companies today start with AI projects – usually as small automations with tools like n8n, Make, or so-called “AI agents.”

The results look impressive in the lab and raise expectations.

But as soon as these projects are transferred into the real business world, disillusionment sets in: suddenly answers become inaccurate, processes break down, and the AI seems unreliable.

The reason is almost always the same: the underlying data is not AI-ready.

Which Data is Especially Critical

Particularly challenging are unstructured documents that companies create and use every day:

  • Presentations and manuals
  • Contracts and invoices
  • Emails and meeting minutes
  • Internal reports and forms

 

These documents contain valuable knowledge. But they are often not in the right format, not standardized, or difficult for AI to interpret.

Which Data is Especially Critical

  • Inaccurate results: AI delivers answers that are unreliable.
  • Delayed projects: Teams invest a lot of time reprocessing data afterward.
  • High costs: Budgets for AI initiatives are wasted without generating real value.

Therefore: Clean data is the foundation for successful AI.

One Approach to the Solution: Making Data Quality Measurable

Before companies invest large budgets in AI applications, it makes sense to check how “AI-readable” their data really is.

 

A transparent quality check shows:

 

  • which document types can be processed without issues,
  • where improvements are needed,
  • and the overall quality of existing documents.

 

This provides a clear basis for realistically assessing AI projects and preparing them in a targeted way.
