Engineering Intelligent
Infrastructure for
Regulated & Real-Time Systems
We design, build, and operate mission-critical platforms in regulated and real-time environments. AI-powered automation. Financial infrastructure. High-availability systems. Built for reliability, compliance, and scale.
Three Pillars of Engineering Excellence
We specialise in three interconnected disciplines — each demanding deep technical expertise, regulatory awareness, and an obsession with reliability.
Intelligent Automation & AI Systems
Practical AI that delivers measurable operational outcomes
We build AI systems that automate complex workflows, augment human decision-making, and create operational efficiencies at scale — without the hype.
Who It's For
Operations leaders, financial institutions, and enterprises seeking to reduce manual overhead and accelerate processing.
Business Outcomes
Reduced processing times by up to 80%. Elimination of manual reconciliation errors. Faster decision cycles.
Technical Capabilities
Financial & Regulated Infrastructure
Mission-critical systems built for compliance and scale
We engineer core financial systems — ledgers, payment integrations, reconciliation engines, and compliance-aware architectures — designed for FCA-regulated environments.
Who It's For
Fintechs, banks, payment providers, and regulated startups requiring rock-solid financial infrastructure.
Business Outcomes
Real-time settlement visibility. Full regulatory auditability. Sub-second transaction processing.
Technical Capabilities
Real-Time Media & Control Platforms
High-availability systems for 24/7 production environments
We design and build broadcast control systems, monitoring dashboards, and operational platforms that demand zero downtime and real-time responsiveness.
Who It's For
Broadcast operators, media infrastructure companies, and enterprises running critical 24/7 operations.
Business Outcomes
99.99% uptime delivery. Real-time operational visibility. Automated compliance reporting.
Technical Capabilities
Built for Sectors That Demand Reliability
Our engineering expertise is focused on industries where system failure isn't an option — where compliance, uptime, and performance are non-negotiable.
Fintech & Payments
Core banking platforms, payment gateways, ledger systems, and real-time settlement infrastructure for emerging and established financial technology companies.
Financial Services
Compliance-aware systems, regulatory reporting, transaction monitoring, and AI-powered operational automation for banks, insurers, and asset managers.
Regulated Startups
Helping regulated startups build their technical foundations — from FCA-aligned architectures to secure API platforms — with the rigour of enterprise engineering.
Broadcast & Media
Broadcast control and monitoring platforms, high-availability content systems, and real-time operational dashboards for 24/7 media operations.
Infrastructure-Heavy Enterprises
Cloud-native platform engineering, microservices architecture, and DevOps transformation for organisations running complex distributed systems at scale.
Case Studies
Real-world examples of how we solve complex engineering challenges in regulated, real-time, and mission-critical environments.
Real-Time Banking Ledger System
Business Challenge
A growing fintech needed a core ledger system capable of processing thousands of transactions per second with full double-entry accounting, real-time balance updates, and complete audit trail compliance for FCA reporting.
Engineering Solution
We architected a distributed ledger engine with event-sourced transaction processing, CQRS pattern for read/write separation, and idempotent webhook handlers for bank integrations. The system supports real-time settlement with sub-100ms response times.
Outcome
Transaction processing capacity increased by 15x. Full FCA-compliant audit trail achieved. Zero data inconsistencies across 2M+ monthly transactions.
Webhook-Driven Reconciliation Engine
Business Challenge
A payment platform needed automated reconciliation between their internal ledger, banking partner (ClearBank-style), and multiple payment schemes — replacing a manual process that took 3 days per cycle.
Engineering Solution
We designed a webhook-driven reconciliation engine that ingests events from multiple banking partners, matches transactions using configurable rules, flags discrepancies automatically, and generates exception reports for the operations team.
Outcome
Reconciliation time reduced from 3 days to under 15 minutes. Automated detection of 99.7% of discrepancies. Manual intervention reduced by 92%.
AI-Powered Accounting Automation
Business Challenge
A financial services firm processed 10,000+ invoices monthly across multiple formats, requiring manual data extraction, classification, and entry into their accounting system — a process prone to errors and significant delays.
Engineering Solution
We built an intelligent document processing pipeline using OCR, NLP-based entity extraction, and ML classification models to automatically extract, validate, and route invoice data directly into the client's accounting platform via API.
Outcome
Invoice processing time reduced by 80%. Error rate dropped from 4.2% to 0.3%. Staff reallocated from data entry to higher-value financial analysis.
High-Availability Broadcast Monitoring
Business Challenge
A major broadcast operation required a 24/7 monitoring and control platform for live transmission chains, with real-time alerting, automated failover triggers, and compliance logging — replacing a legacy system with unacceptable downtime.
Engineering Solution
We engineered a cloud-native monitoring platform with sub-second health checks, automated alerting via PagerDuty integration, compliance event logging, and an operator dashboard providing real-time visibility across all transmission chains.
Outcome
99.99% uptime achieved across all monitored channels. Mean time to incident detection reduced from 8 minutes to under 10 seconds. Full Ofcom compliance audit trail.
Secure Open Banking Integration
Business Challenge
A regulated startup needed PSD2-compliant Open Banking connectivity to enable account aggregation and payment initiation across multiple UK banks — with stringent security, consent management, and regulatory requirements.
Engineering Solution
We built a secure API gateway layer handling OIDC-based consent flows, TPP certificate management, and bank-specific API adapters. The system includes comprehensive audit logging, rate limiting, and automated certificate rotation.
Outcome
Successfully integrated with 12 major UK banks. PSD2 compliance achieved on first audit. Consent flow completion rate of 94% — well above industry average.
Engineering-Led. Outcome-Driven. No Hype.
