Should your local museums invest more resources into creating interactive digital experiences for visitors?
The UNICHE project officially began on October 1, 2025, to develop a no-code AI platform for European cultural heritage institutions. This research-stage initiative provides digital tools for the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage.
Why it matters
The project aims to lower technical barriers for museums and archaeological sites to participate in digital transformation. It addresses the ongoing need for specialized software expertise in managing and presenting cultural assets.
The project spans a total duration of 36 months under the Horizon Europe Innovation Action program. It leverages the MuseotekBox platform, which utilizes sensor-driven data to facilitate interactive user experiences.
The players
UniSystems Luxembourg
An IT services and solutions provider that coordinates the project and focuses on large-scale digital transformation initiatives.
Museotek S.A.
A technology company specializing in sensor-driven museum interactions and digital infrastructure for heritage displays.
The details
The platform functions by allowing curators to assemble immersive experiences without requiring traditional software development expertise. It integrates an AI-powered conversational assistant designed to navigate and present cultural information using only institutionally approved content. This approach minimizes the need for high-level technical overhead while maintaining content integrity.
Timeline
The UNICHE project officially began on 1 October 2025.
The project is scheduled to conclude on 30 September 2028.
The Tech Race
The initiative functions as a key contributor to the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage, which aims to unify digital access across member states. It represents a push to standardize AI-ready heritage tools within a common, EU-governed framework.
Visitors to sites like the Galileo Museum in Florence and the Architecture Museum in Wrocław will see the results of these digital tools in future interactive displays. The technology remains in the research phase, with no current general release date for public-facing software tools.
The takeaway
The project serves as a test case for whether no-code platforms can successfully scale advanced AI capabilities across diverse, non-technical heritage institutions. Researchers and museum administrators should monitor the final outcomes of the pilot programs at archaeological sites in Kalapodi and Ugento.
