Forward Deployed Engineering for Fintech and Regulated Businesses

How fintechs and regulated businesses build and deploy AI safely, with governance, data protection and conduct rules handled from the first delivery cycle.

Fintechs and regulated businesses can build and deploy AI safely with a senior-led delivery partner who understands both the engineering and the compliance. The difference in regulated work is the overhead: delivery has to satisfy data protection, conduct rules and the assurance questions a banking partner will ask.

Governance built in, not bolted on

Handling personal financial data means meeting the ICO obligations, and conduct expectations such as the FCA’s Consumer Duty, from the first cycle rather than as an afterthought. Guardrails set early let the build move with confidence.

Delivery that stands up to scrutiny

Our founder ran the AI and machine learning function at a UK consumer lender and led technology and quality in regulated financial services. That is the background behind our forward deployed engineering and AI governance and enablement work, delivered by senior practitioners who have carried the accountability before.
