What our generative AI development covers
Copilots and assistants
In-app assistants that draft, summarise, answer and take actions for your staff or customers, grounded in your own data.
Content generation
Product descriptions, marketing copy, reports and emails generated in your brand voice, with review steps before anything is published.
Image and media generation
Product imagery, design variations and visual assets generated from prompts or templates, built into your existing workflow.
Document generation
Proposals, contracts, summaries and structured reports drafted from your templates and records, ready for human sign-off.
Fine-tuning
Models fine-tuned on your examples when prompting and retrieval are not enough, with evaluation to prove the gain.
Private LLMs
Open-source models such as Llama, Mistral or Qwen hosted on your own cloud, so sensitive data never leaves your environment.
How we approach Generative AI development
Prompting, retrieval or fine-tuning
Most GenAI products work best with good prompts plus retrieval from your own documents. We only recommend fine-tuning when you have enough quality examples and a clear gap that retrieval cannot close, because it adds training and maintenance cost.
Choosing the right model
We compare GPT, Claude, Gemini and open-source models on your real tasks for quality, speed and cost before committing. The architecture keeps the model swappable, so you can switch providers as prices and capabilities change.
Guardrails and review
Generated output goes through checks for format, tone, facts against your sources and sensitive content. Where accuracy matters, we add a human approval step and keep a log of every generation.
Private by design
We use API providers configured not to train on your data, or host open-source models on your own cloud. For healthcare work, our HIPAA-trained team builds to HIPAA requirements.
Remote, but close to Edinburgh
Time-zone overlap
The UK and our team in India share four to five working hours every day, so stand-ups, calls and quick decisions happen during your morning and early afternoon.
UK GDPR
We design products to UK GDPR principles: data minimisation, clear consent, access controls, encryption and data stored in the UK or EU when you need it. We sign NDAs and data processing agreements before work starts.
Billing
Invoices in British pounds (GBP) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
Where we help Edinburgh businesses most
Edinburgh and Glasgow fintech and SaaS companies work with us for senior engineering capacity on web, mobile and AI products, built with UK GDPR in mind.

Law and consulting firms automate document-heavy workflows. We build AI agents, assistants and automation around these workflows.

High online shopping adoption makes store performance decisive. AI here usually means faster reporting, fewer manual steps and better customer replies.
