Agentic AI reality check: what works in day-to-day operations today – and what doesn’t

Agents in the process. Where agentic AI really works in day-to-day operations today.
Heimspiel KI Frankfurt addresses a question almost every company is asking: why is agentic AI on everyone’s agenda, yet rarely running in production? The reason is usually not the model but the process around it. Where may an agent decide, where does the process stay deterministic, who is accountable for the result – and what happens when the agent gets it wrong?
This is not a preview of what might be possible someday. It is a reality check: what works in real business processes today, why projects fail and which decisions make the difference.
You will take away concrete patterns that have proven themselves in production – and the mistakes you can avoid.
Please note: the event and all talks will be held in German.
An afternoon in the stadium that sharpens your view of agentic AI
Most companies are asking the same questions: At which decision points is an agent actually worth it? How do governance and traceability hold up when processes become dynamic? And how do you get from prototype to reliable operation?
These are exactly the questions at the heart of Heimspiel KI in Frankfurt.
Together with Camunda and user companies, cimt shows how AI agents are embedded in end-to-end business processes – working alongside people, rules and existing systems.

What to expect at Heimspiel KI Frankfurt – your afternoon at a glance
A talk from professional football, a look at the orchestration of AI agents, user reports from live operations – and a tour of Deutsche Bank Park. Instead of visions of the future, you can expect concrete experience from ongoing projects, including the approaches that did not work. That gives you insights you can transfer directly to your own processes.

Bernd Rücker
Chief Technologist and co-founder, Camunda
Bernd Rücker is Chief Technologist and co-founder of Camunda. As a software developer, he has delivered large-scale process automation projects at leading companies and established automation paradigms that fit modern architectures.
He is the author of “Practical Process Automation” and co-author of “Enterprise Process Orchestration” and “Real-Life BPMN”. He holds a degree in software engineering from HFT Stuttgart.
His talk: For process analysts and digitalisation leaders, the question is no longer what agentic AI can do, but where it creates real value in day-to-day operations. The talk shows how AI agents are embedded where the leverage is greatest – in end-to-end business processes, at clearly defined decision points and in interaction with people, rules and systems. Agentic orchestration provides a framework in which deterministic and dynamic flows can alternate depending on the situation – without losing sight of governance, traceability and operational reliability. Using Camunda ProcessOS as an example, he shows how this works in practice.

A venue that sets the right stage.
Heimspiel KI takes place at one of Frankfurt’s most remarkable venues: Deutsche Bank Park – the home of Eintracht Frankfurt.
You will experience expert talks, user reports and networking in an atmosphere you don’t get every day – overlooking the pitch. And one highlight is a must: join us on a stadium tour and take a look behind the scenes. From the catacombs to the areas usually reserved for the professionals, you will experience one of Germany’s best-known sports venues from a special perspective.
Address: Deutsche Bank Park, Mörfelder Landstraße 362, 60528 Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The event ends at around 8 pm – please plan your journey home accordingly. Warm clothing is recommended for the stadium tour.
