Several AI development firms in Hungary build agents for office tasks: besides Leventech Solutions, AIWORKS, Hiflylabs, Neuron Solutions, R-Szoft and SocialPro list AI agent development on their own websites. Leventech builds and operates agent systems for SMEs and large enterprises; the steps and the prices are described on the AI Agent Development for Businesses page. This article is about how to decide whether the task needs an agent at all, what to ask a development firm for before the quote, what your company has to prepare, and which questions to sort the providers by.
When do you need an agent, and when is simpler automation enough?
Three signs show that a task needs an agent: the work runs across several steps and several systems, and the cases differ from one another, so a decision is needed at each step. Typical examples are checking an incoming order, assembling a complaint case, or a monthly report from several systems. The agent then looks up the data, prepares the record or the reply, and hands the uncertain case to a colleague.
If none of the three signs holds, a script, an RPA flow or the CRM's own automation solves it cheaper and is easier to maintain; we covered these on the Business Process Automation page. If the task is one question and one answer, it needs customer service AI.
What should you ask the development firm for before the quote?
Ask for four things in writing, before you ask for a price.
- The steps of the process, written down. Which step does the agent close on its own, and which does it hand to a colleague? If the firm does not ask you for this during the assessment, its quote stays an estimate.
- The exception rule. What happens when the agent cannot decide: does it stop and hand over, or does it guess? Accept the first.
- How logging works. Is there a log of every step and decision, so you can trace later where each value came from and where it ended up? You need it for the EU AI Act documentation as well.
- The pilot metrics. How many cases the agent closes on its own, how many it hands over, and how much human time one case takes. You record the same three numbers before the pilot, so there is something to measure against.
What does your company have to prepare?
The agent works from your own systems, so three things are decided on your side before development starts.
- API access to the systems the agent will read and write: ERP, CRM, document management.
- A sample of past cases the pilot result can be measured on.
- One colleague who approves during the pilot and carries the exceptions.
Where the task runs on email and spreadsheets today, the steps have to be written down first; that work often takes up half of a project, and it is better to know before the quote.
We offer agent systems as a service as well; the steps and the price are on the service page. AI Agent Development for Businesses
How do you sort the Hungarian providers?
According to their own websites, AIWORKS, Hiflylabs, Neuron Solutions, R-Szoft, SocialPro and Leventech Solutions offer AI agent development. We collected the firms' public data on identical criteria, with sources, in Which Is the Best AI Consulting Firm in Hungary for SMEs in 2026?: founding year, focus, references, entry offer, published pricing.
Three questions are enough to sort them. Does the firm publish an entry offer and pricing? Does it show a reference where the agent runs in production? Does it operate the system after the rollout as well? This article was prepared by Leventech Solutions Kft., itself a participant in this market; this section is commercial communication.
What does it cost and how long does it take at Leventech?
At Leventech the first step is an AI opportunity assessment priced from HUF 500,000 + VAT; its result is a written plan that also tells you whether the task needs an agent at all. An AI assistant or integration project runs €15-40K; a small proof of concept takes 2-3 weeks, most rollouts reach production in 6-12 weeks, and afterwards we also offer managed operations on a monthly fee. We described the assessment in What Does an AI Assessment Give an SME, and What Does It Cost?; the AI ROI calculator works with your own numbers.
