AI Consultancy / UK-wide
AI consultancy for UK businesses that ships, not just strategises.
From discovery to deployment, we are the senior team behind AI strategies that actually become working products. North-West-based, working UK-wide.
Senior consultants, no junior padding. NDA on request.
The problem
Strategy is the easy bit. Shipping is where AI projects die.
Eighty per cent of AI projects fail - not because the technology doesn't work, but because the requirements were wrong, the vendor was wrong, or the people who scoped it were never the people who built it.
- Big-firm consultants who deliver decks and disappear before implementation begins.
- AI projects that stall in pilot purgatory and never reach production.
- Internal teams stretched too thin to evaluate the right tools, models or vendors.
What we do
Four services. One senior team.
We don't hand you off between practices. The same senior consultants take you from strategy through to working software.
AI strategy & roadmap
Where to invest, what to ignore, how to sequence. We assess your data estate, internal capability and commercial pressure, then write the 90-day plan you can act on next week.Outcome → A 90-day plan you can act on, not a 60-page deck.
AI implementation & integration
Plugging models, agents and automations into the systems and workflows you already run. We do the engineering, not just the architecture diagrams.Outcome → Working software in production, not slideware.
End-to-end AI app development
When you need a custom AI product, we design and build it. Greenfield AI applications, RAG systems, agents and integrations - the same senior team from scoping through to launch.Outcome → A live, evaluated, documented AI application owned by you.

Practical guardrails so AI doesn't blow up your data protection posture or your cloud bill. UK GDPR, sector regulation, model evaluation, observability, and unit-economics work.Outcome → AI you can defend to your board, your DPO and your CFO.
How we work
Four steps from question to working software.
A clear, testable engagement structure. Fixed fees where it makes sense, sprints where it doesn't.
Discovery call
Thirty minutes, free, no slides. We learn your situation and tell you whether we can help. If we can't, we'll point you to someone who can.Scoping sprint
A fixed-fee one-to-two-week deep-dive that produces a costed, sequenced plan - including model and vendor recommendations, risks, and a delivery timeline.Build & integrate
Senior engineers and consultants - the same people you met in scoping - deliver. We work to two-week sprints with working software at the end of each.Handover & support
You own the work, the code and the documentation. We stay available for ongoing support, evaluation runs and feature iteration if you want it.
Why us
Honest, slightly contrarian, deliberately small.
Senior people only.
No grad-staffed delivery. The person who scoped your project is the person who builds it.
Practical over theoretical.
We've built AI products that run in production. The advice you get is the advice we'd give ourselves.
No vendor lock-in.
Cloud-agnostic, model-agnostic. We pick what fits the problem, not what we have a partnership with.
Transparent pricing.
Fixed-scope quotes wherever possible. No retainer creep, no per-seat surprises, no surprise invoices.
Who we work with
Enterprises, SMEs and regulated sectors across the UK.
We work with organisations across financial services, government, professional services, healthcare, manufacturing and construction. Based in the North West of England, delivering UK-wide - remote where it's efficient, on-site where it earns you results.
Questions
Things people ask before booking a call.
- Big-4 firms staff most of their delivery with juniors and bill at senior rates. We're a small senior team - the analyst who scopes your project is also the person who builds and supports it. You pay for the people doing the work, not the pyramid above them.
