Your TYPO3 upgrade. Up to 50% cheaper. No hidden costs.

We have developed an AI-powered upgrade process that automates the mechanical, labour-intensive work. The upgrade is monitored and approved by our senior TYPO3 specialists. The result: a noticeable reduction in effort and, depending on the environment and complexity, a fixed price that is up to 50 per cent lower than that of a conventional upgrade.

Why our upgrade is cheaper

A classic major upgrade is expensive because an experienced developer has to keep track of the changelog, extensions, Composer, the database, the environment and front-end testing all at once – for days, often for weeks. It is precisely this work that we organise and speed up.

AI takes care of the groundwork

Inventory checks, changelog and breaking change analysis, migration extension by extension, and the reconciliation of every page are carried out automatically with the aid of tools. Expensive senior staff hours are channelled where they really count: into decision-making and quality assurance.

Knowledge that grows with every project

Every upgrade enhances our versioned knowledge base. Recurring steps are carried out according to a set procedure, rather than being reworked from scratch each time. This makes the effort and cost predictable – and allows for more precise costing with every project.

Processes rather than gut feeling

We use cost-effective solutions for routine tasks and Frontier-LLM for orchestration. Effort and costs are calculated on a per-project basis – you pay for a result, not for overtime.

AI in a production environment – can that really work?

 With us, yes, because the process is designed with control and security in mind.

  • Your live system remains unaffected. We work on a copy. Your original remains the reference point at all times, against which we check every page, every form and every interface.
  • People make the decisions; the AI assists. No autonomous overnight tasks, no one-click automation. Every step is checked and approved by our developers. 
  • Processes are enforced, not merely recalled. The system automatically catches classic upgrade pitfalls such as undocumented features. 
  • Real tests instead of gut feeling. We test the front-end, back-end, forms and interfaces in a real browser – on desktop and mobile devices. 
  • Fully traceable. Every step is documented: what was changed and why. You get a level of transparency that a manual upgrade rarely provides.

Target version: TYPO3 v14 LTS

With a completely revamped backend, more robust editorial workflows and state-of-the-art technology at its core, this release brings new momentum to enterprise content management.

Editors and Marketing

  • New look and feel: a clearer layout, a new top bar and updated icons
  • Editing reimagined: direct editing in the context panel. Fewer clicks, faster results
  • Integrated marketing tools: QR code generator, short URLs and centralised management of all redirects
  • Translation assistant: guided translations in a side-by-side view

Admins and IT

  • Planning certainty: LTS support until mid-2029
  • PHP 8.3/8.4: Back-end and front-end processes run noticeably faster
  • System stability: Obsolete APIs have been removed – fewer potential security vulnerabilities
  • Cloud-native operation: Configuration via environment variables has been refined, which significantly simplifies CI/CD pipelines and deployments.

Why you should act now

Security and Compliance

Outdated versions of TYPO3 will eventually cease to receive regular security updates. At the same time, Article 32 of the GDPR and the IT Security Act require state-of-the-art technical measures. An outdated CMS can therefore become an organisational and legal risk.

End of Support

v11 is end-of-life. Free community support for v12 expired in April 2026. v13 will continue to receive regular maintenance until October 2027 – after that, security updates will only be available for a fee via ELTS. Those who wait will end up paying ELTS fees and the cost of the upgrade later on.

Rising costs

The longer you wait, the more version jumps will be required – and the more expensive the project will become. Taking action now is the more cost-effective decision.

Why we are the right partner for your TYPO3 upgrade

We have been working with TYPO3 for many years and have carried out numerous upgrades. We developed the AI-powered process ourselves and have tested it in real-world client projects. We first implement each upgrade on a staging system and plan the migration together with you. Your live environment remains unaffected during development.

This is how we carry out a TYPO3 upgrade

Transparent and predictable – from analysis to go-live in five steps.

Analysis

We automatically check your current TYPO3 version, installed extensions, in-house developments and interfaces – and compile a structured list of what needs to be done.

01
02

Report and quotation

You will receive a summary of the findings, risks and recommendations, as well as a binding fixed-price quotation.

Implementation on the staging environment

The upgrade is carried out on a copy of your site in small, verifiable steps. Your live website remains unaffected and accessible throughout the work.

03
04

Quality Assurance

We test forms, navigation, interfaces, front-end display and performance in a real browser – on both desktop and mobile devices. Every page is compared against the original. Only then do we plan the go-live together.

Go-Live & Post-Launch Support

We agree on the deployment date together. After the go-live, we monitor the system and provide support for any further technical steps.
