IONOS Momentum: Europe’s New Ecosystem for Artificial Intelligence in SMBs

Karlsruhe, November 11, 2025. IONOS, Europe’s leading digitalization partner and trusted Cloud Enabler, is launching a new era for artificial intelligence in business and the public sector with IONOS Momentum. Until now, organizations have relied on a patchwork of AI tools—often expensive, complex, and hard to integrate. With Momentum, IONOS is introducing a unified, GDPR-compliant ecosystem that brings together infrastructure, automation, and applications on a single platform.

From the start, IONOS is partnering with strong European players such as agorum, Blockbrain, embraceableAI, noxtua, nuwacom, and NXAI. These partners contribute proven solutions tested in real-world operations and customer-facing processes—from marketing automation and data analysis to process optimization.

A Unified AI Ecosystem

Momentum introduces a new category: an integrated, sovereign ecosystem.
“Think of Momentum as an intelligent control center for your entire organization—a hub for managing all digital workflows, no matter your size or technical expertise,” says Achim Weiß, CEO of IONOS. “Whether it's marketing, customer service, or operations—artificial intelligence becomes a core part of how you do business, not just another tool in your stack.”

Secure, Sovereign, and Simpler Than Ever

The platform is built on the sovereign IONOS Cloud Infrastructure, designed to meet the highest standards in data protection and digital sovereignty. On this foundation, the Momentum Studio provides access to multiple AI models, customizable options, and tools for developing applications—all within strict European data protection regulations.

A key component is the Momentum Team—a suite of intelligent AI assistants that automate everyday workflows from customer service to marketing to appointment scheduling. The first available assistant, launched in early November, is the AI Phone Receptionist. It handles customer communication 24/7 and offers businesses a practical, accessible introduction to AI—no technical background required.

With Applications Powered by Momentum AI, businesses get real, ready-to-use solutions that simplify everyday tasks—from AI Website Builder tools and online marketing to newsletter automation. IONOS continues to expand this offering in collaboration with its growing partner network.

Boosting Europe's Digital Competitiveness

With 6.5 million customers, IONOS has a unique foundation to make artificial intelligence widely accessible. When small and medium-sized businesses adopt these technologies securely and in an integrated way, it drives measurable gains in customer satisfaction, efficiency, and growth.

Recent research highlights the opportunity. According to a YouGov study*, more than half of SMBs in Germany report measurable benefits from using AI. The biggest gains include faster, more efficient processes (56%), reduced workload for routine tasks (52%), and creative insights (51%).

A European Alternative

IONOS Momentum offers a powerful, transparent, and GDPR-compliant alternative to global AI platforms—developed in Europe, for European businesses.

“IONOS Momentum is more than just a new product line,” says Achim Weiß. “It’s the foundation for a new generation of intelligent business operations—sovereign, secure, and easy to use.”
