Software studio / North West, UK wide
We architect and ship complete production systems: multi-tenant SaaS, native mobile, event-driven cloud infrastructure defined in code, and the AI pipelines that make dense, domain-specific data legible enough to decide on.
Nine years across defence, national security and regulated industry, building the systems that do not exist off the shelf.
Case study
A diplomatic mission needed a working platform for a House of Lords luncheon. Not a holding page: strategy content, an investment project index with sector filtering, a partners hub, a confidential submission channel, and an AI guide grounded on ministry material that cites its answers and refuses anything out of scope.
It went live on a custom domain, on serverless infrastructure defined in Terraform, before the event opened. Three printed artefacts were designed and produced for the room in the same window.

Selected work
Clients are described at sector level. Named case studies follow once a client approves one.
P-01
Finds pre-breakout artists and undervalued catalogue by reading narrative, cultural cohort and scene infrastructure, the signals that purely quantitative tools structurally miss. Eleven live data sources behind one view.
P-02
A ceremonial and investment platform built from a standing start for a House of Lords luncheon: strategy pages, an investment project index, a partners hub, a confidential submission channel, and an AI guide grounded on ministry material that refuses out-of-scope questions and cites its answers.
P-03
End to end operations for UK contractors: estimating and quoting, scheduling and pull planning, site health and safety compliance, finance and invoicing, with an embedded agent that reads receipts, invoices and drawing title blocks.
P-04
Subscription learning platform for the GPhC Registration Assessment: adaptive quizzing, a full question bank, study plans, streaks, an AI tutor and re-engagement automation. Live and taking payments.
P-05
Turns a verbal brief into finished collateral. A structured intake replaces the brief that never gets written, and the engine regenerates brochures, logos and floor plans in minutes rather than days.
P-06
Cameras on court, an edge recorder, and a cloud pipeline that cuts shareable clips without anyone operating anything. Players tap once; the highlight is waiting for them.
P-07
Maps dormant and legacy mineral assets against ownership, grade, and proximity to infrastructure and energy, combining layers that existing platforms keep separate.
What we build
No staff augmentation and no fragments of someone else's spec. We take responsibility for the whole product.
01
From an empty repository to a live product taking payments. Multi-tenant architecture, identity and access, billing, background processing, native mobile from a shared codebase, and the admin surface nobody remembers to scope.
02
Ingesting high-volume, contradictory, domain-specific sources and resolving them into something a person can decide on. Entity resolution, ranking, geospatial and graph analysis, and interfaces that survive contact with a real analyst.
03
Production multi-agent systems, not proofs of concept. Schema-enforced prompts, retrieval grounded on your own corpus, model routing for cost against accuracy, and full tracing so you can see why the machine said what it said.
04
For work that gets audited, litigated or regulated. Tamper-evident logging, calibrated confidence, infrastructure defined in code and reproducible, and offline or air-gapped delivery where public services are ruled out.
How we work
Every phase is separately commissionable and priced before it starts. Ownership transfers to you on payment, in writing, and nothing is locked to us.
A fixed-price week that turns an idea into a costed, phase-gated plan you could hand to anyone.
Working software in front of you every week. Phases are separately commissionable, so you can stop at any gate.
Deployed on infrastructure defined in code, with tests, monitoring and a handover that means you are not locked to us.
Ongoing care, or a clean handover to your team. Ownership transfers to you on payment, in writing.
