AI that shows its working.
We build software, automation and AI systems for financial firms and other regulated businesses. Each one is designed so the people accountable for it can see how a result was produced before they approve it.

From complexity.
To clarity.
The working remains.
Services
Software for the work
your team still does by hand.
01Full-stack application developmentInternal tools your team will use
The work covers web apps, dashboards and workbenches, from the interface down to the APIs, data and deployment. Each figure links back to the record it came from, and access follows the roles that your firm already uses.
User interfaces · APIs and integrations · Data and deployment
02Reconciliation and reportingSpreadsheets rebuilt as code
We rebuild spreadsheet processes as readable code and run the new version alongside the old one until the numbers match. It goes live when the person who owns the process signs it off.
Cash reconciliations · Pricing refreshes · Management reporting
03Controlled AI adoptionAI your compliance team can approve
Before any client data reaches a model, someone has to know where it goes, who approved its use and what was logged. We set up the data boundary, approval record and audit trail that answer those questions.
Data boundaries · Approval records · Audit trails
04Agent systemsAgents you can oversee
Agents carry out multi-step work across your tools, with every run evaluated and a control to stop them. Anything that leaves the firm waits for a person to approve it.
Tool integration · Evaluation · Human approval
Every service is built around the process that you already run and the people who answer for it.
Explore the servicesApproach
Understand the process
before building anything.
The first job is to find out how the process really runs, including the steps nobody wrote down. Once we agree what can change, we build it, and someone at your firm can trace and check every output.
- 01 / Understand
The process as it runs
We map the spreadsheets, handoffs and checks, including the knowledge that sits with one person.
- 02 / Agree
Agreed limits
Compliance, legal and the business owner agree what is allowed, who approves it and what evidence each output needs.
- 03 / Deliver
A system with an owner
Modular, cloud-hosted software with readable code, checked outputs and a named owner for everything that goes live.
Controls agreed
before data moves.
Working standards
Show the evidence.
Name the owner.
- Evidence before claims.
- We treat work as finished once the output has been checked, not when the code first runs.
- Drafts stay drafts.
- Nothing is sent or published on your behalf. A named person at your firm approves the final version.
- Bad news first.
- If something is late or wrong, we tell you straight away, with the evidence and the fastest fix.
