The range of technologies that fall under the definition of artificial intelligence - AI - is vast: machine learning, deep learning, predictive maintenance, autonomous systems, computer vision, natural language processing - including large language models and small language models - and generative AI, AI chatbots, AI agents, and more. Software applications that use these technologies, whether as a core function or for specific areas, are constantly growing in number.
At swiss made software, we want to support Swiss companies that have chosen to embrace these new technologies while staying true to the core values that underpin our “swiss made” label; namely, to certify Swiss origin. With this in mind, we have developed two new variants: the swiss made software + AI and swiss digital services + AI labels.
The aim is to create transparency for all: This additional label allows Swiss companies to declare their use of AI technology, which itself does not need to be Swiss-made. This additional designation makes it clear to buyers that the software is based on third-party technology and depends on it for core functionality. This goes hand in hand with the recommendation for users to check with the provider to find out what third-party technology or technologies are involved, and how these have been implemented.
