Software · AI · Fintech · Unreal Engine
We design and build tailor-made software, AI systems, fintech platforms and real-time 3D productions — and we run the projects that deliver them, from the first workshop to production and everything after.

01 — What we do
Core engineering and delivery, plus three specialist practices: artificial intelligence, fintech, and cinematic production on Unreal Engine. Most clients use a mix.
Bespoke products designed from a blank page around your workflows, data and users — when off-the-shelf tools get in the way.
Engineering capacity that plugs into your existing product — to extend it, connect it to other systems, or bring legacy code up to date.
Delivery leadership that keeps scope, time and budget honest — for projects we build, and for teams that need someone to run theirs.
AI built into how your company decides, operates and supports customers — with the process and data changes that make it stick.
Software development and operations management for licensed fintechs — EMIs, MSBs, payment institutions and card programmes.
Cinematic and real-time 3D work on Unreal Engine — from trailers and visualization to virtual production and interactive experiences.
02 — Artificial intelligence
We help companies put AI to work where it pays off — in how they make decisions, run operations and support customers — and lead the digital transformation that turns a pilot into everyday practice.
01 Decide
02 Operate
03 Support
Private or on-premise model deployments when your data needs to stay in-house.
AI proposes, people approve — wherever the decision matters.
Evaluated on accuracy and business KPIs before and after launch.
03 — Fintech
We build, integrate and run the systems behind regulated financial businesses — designed around the obligations that come with your licence: security, safeguarding, AML/KYC and audit-ready records.
SWIFT messaging (MT and ISO 20022), VisaNet and card scheme connectivity, SEPA and local payment rails.
Card programme build-out, issuer processor integration, virtual and physical cards, tokenisation, 3-D Secure and spend controls.
Acquirer and PSP integrations, smart routing, retries and failover, unified reporting across providers.
Multi-currency wallets and accounts, double-entry ledgers, FX, and safeguarding reconciliation.
KYC/KYB onboarding, AML transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, audit trails and regulatory reporting.
Wallet infrastructure, fiat on/off-ramps, stablecoin settlement and smart-contract integration.
Operations management
For licensed institutions, the software is only half the job. We take on day-to-day technical operations so your team can focus on customers, partners and compliance.
04 — Studio · Unreal Engine production
We create production-grade cinematics and real-time 3D on Unreal Engine — for studios, agencies, brands, architects and manufacturers. Faster iteration than offline rendering, with film-quality results.
Rendered live in your browser with three.js · drag the timeline to scrub
Story-driven sequences, game and product trailers, and brand films — from previs to final frame.
Previs, techvis and real-time environments for LED volumes and green-screen shoots.
Architectural, product and industrial visualization, including interactive configurators.
Real-time applications, web 3D with three.js & WebGL, digital twins and installations — backed by our software engineering team.
05 — Approach
We split work into small, visible pieces. Each stage ends with something you can see, use or decide on — never a surprise at the end.
Workshops with the people who will use the software. We map the process, the data and the constraints.
You get A clear problem statement and priorities
Scope, architecture and a delivery plan, broken into releases. Clickable prototypes where they help.
You get A written scope, estimate and roadmap
Short iterations with a working demo at the end of each one. You see progress, and can change direction early.
You get Working software, every iteration
Testing, data migration, deployment and training — planned, rehearsed and done without drama.
You get A stable release your team can run
Support, monitoring and a steady roadmap of improvements once real users are on board.
You get Software that keeps up with you
06 — Project management
Every engagement has a dedicated project manager — your single point of contact, responsible for keeping everyone aligned and nothing hidden.
Already have developers, in-house or through another vendor? We also run projects as a standalone service.
Talk to us about deliveryWorking software on screen, not status slides.
You see every task, its priority and its state — the same board we use.
Time and spend reported against the plan, with early warning when things drift.
Written down, owned and followed up — so decisions don't get lost in chat.
Clear updates for non-technical stakeholders, detail for the ones who want it.
We pick technology for the problem and for the team who'll maintain it — not for fashion.
07 — Why work with us
Source code, documentation and infrastructure live in your accounts. No lock-in.
Fixed-scope projects when requirements are clear, time & materials when they're still moving.
A small senior team rather than a crowd. Fewer hand-offs, faster decisions.
Tests, documentation and sensible architecture — so the next developer can pick it up.
08 — FAQ
It depends on scope, integrations and how polished the first release needs to be. After a short discovery conversation we give you a written estimate with ranges, and we can split it into phases so you can start small and grow.
A focused internal tool can go live in weeks; a larger platform is usually delivered in several releases over months. We plan for an early first release so you get value — and feedback — as soon as possible.
Yes — it's one of our core sectors. We work with EMIs, MSBs, payment institutions and card programmes, and design around the obligations of the licence: security, safeguarding, AML/KYC, audit trails and reporting. Your compliance team stays in charge of policy; we build and run the systems that implement it.
We design every AI solution around your data policies — including private or on-premise model deployments, role-based access and full logging — and sensitive data only goes to third-party services if you approve it.
Yes. Studios, agencies, brands, architects and manufacturers come to us for cinematics, visualization and interactive experiences — with or without a wider software project.
Yes. We regularly join existing teams as extra engineering capacity, or take the project management role and coordinate developers who aren't ours.
Often, yes. We start with a short technical and delivery review, tell you honestly what we find, and propose a plan to either rescue, refactor or restart the parts that need it.
We offer ongoing support and maintenance — monitoring, fixes, updates and new features. If you'd rather take it in-house, we'll hand over with documentation and training.
09 — Contact
Software, AI, fintech or a cinematic on Unreal Engine — a few lines by email is enough. We'll reply to set up a short call. No obligation, no sales script.
