Research that de-risks your AI roadmap.
Before you invest in an AI programme, know what works. We run applied research (feasibility studies, model evaluations and time-boxed PoCs) with quantitative, reproducible results.
Typical research questions
- · Can an LLM handle our document types at >95% accuracy?
- · Open-source or proprietary: what does our workload really cost?
- · Is an agentic workflow safe enough for this process?
- · What data do we need before this use case is viable?
- · How do we measure quality once it's live?
What we research
Feasibility Studies
Structured assessment of whether an AI idea is technically viable, economically sensible and safe, before you commit budget.
Model Evaluation & Selection
Head-to-head benchmarking of proprietary and open models on your tasks, your data and your cost envelope.
Proofs of Concept
Time-boxed PoCs with agreed success criteria: real data, real users, and quantitative results within a few weeks.
Agentic Systems Research
Multi-step, tool-using agents: planning, memory, orchestration and the guardrails required to trust them.
Multimodal AI
Vision, speech and document understanding combined with language models for richer, real-world workflows.
AI Readiness & Training
Market research, capability assessments and hands-on training that equip your teams to build responsibly.
Research principles
Quantitative by default
Every study ends with hard numbers: accuracy, latency and cost per task.
Reproducible
Versioned datasets, prompts and evaluation code, so results can be re-run and audited.
De-risking, not hype
Our job is to tell you what will not work, early and cheaply, as much as what will.
How we work with you
The same model across every service line: predictable, transparent, and built so you are never locked in.
Discovery
Architecture, data and cost review. Business outcomes and success metrics agreed up-front. Ends with a costed delivery plan you can take to any vendor, including us.
Foundation
A small senior pod delivers the first production increment (platform, pipelines or AI solution) with CI/CD, tests and documentation from day one. First value inside the first quarter.
Scale
Roadmap-led delivery in fortnightly increments. Transparent commercials, pod-based or T&M, with a named engagement lead and weekly steering.
Operate or Hand over
Managed service with SLAs and cost reviews, or a structured handover to your team. We build for handover by design: documented, tested, no lock-in.
