Short answer
Rubra Digital delivers LLM and RAG consulting to organisations in Spain, working across Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia and remotely. Engagements are designed around EU AI Act, GDPR / LOPDGDD, AESIA supervision. EU regions in Madrid or Spain Central.
What is different about delivering in Spain
Spain created AESIA, the first dedicated national AI supervisory agency in the EU, and ran the EU’s first AI Act regulatory sandbox, so Spanish organisations often have earlier practical exposure to AI Act conformity work than their neighbours. Banking and insurance groups in Madrid are the most active buyers, and multilingual retrieval spanning Castilian Spanish and Catalan is a routine requirement in Catalonia.
How that changes my build

AI consulting in Spain: FAQ
Do you work with clients in Spain?
Yes. I deliver remotely across CET/CEST with on-site workshops in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia for discovery, architecture review and handover, which are the points where being in the room helps. My working language is English, and I work with source material in Spanish and Catalan.
Which regulations shape AI projects in Spain?
The frameworks that most often change how I design a system here are EU AI Act, GDPR / LOPDGDD, AESIA supervision, DORA. The primary data protection regulator is Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (AEPD). Where a use case may land in the AI Act high-risk category, I scope the conformity evidence alongside the build rather than treating it as a later phase.
Can our data stay in Spain?
EU regions in Madrid or Spain Central. Where a client needs inference to stay inside the jurisdiction, that gets designed in from the start rather than retrofitted, including fully on-premise deployment with open-weight models where no external inference is permitted.
What does an AI consulting engagement cost in Spain?
Discovery engagements start at €22,000 and production builds typically run from €55,000 to €180,000 depending on scope. I invoice in EUR and quote fixed price for defined scopes, with the assumptions written down before you commit.
