A calm, well-lit engineering workspace
What we do

Senior-led delivery, audit to production.

From independent AI audits to end-to-end custom builds. Production-grade delivery for mid-market businesses.

Director-led delivery

Every engagement is run by a Cymrai director. No junior teams, no hand-offs after sign-off.

Production-grade, always

We do not build demos. We build systems your teams can rely on in the real world.

Research-backed approach

Academic collaboration through USW's Startup Stiwdio means current methods, not last year's frameworks.

Featured service

AI Auditing & Governance

Independent assessment of your AI systems, data practices and governance frameworks.

If your organisation uses AI, whether you built it or bought it, you need to know it is working correctly, behaving fairly and meeting your regulatory obligations. We run an independent, structured assessment aligned with ISACA's standards (CISA, CRISC, CGEIT and the AAIA™ framework).

We produce a plain-language report for leadership and a technical annex for engineering teams, with findings rated by severity and a clear, prioritised remediation roadmap.

Aligned with ISACA · CISA · CRISC · CGEIT · AAIA™

Core services

What we deliver, end to end.

01

Built to your exact requirements

Custom AI Solutions

We design, build and deploy AI systems that solve specific problems your business faces, not generic tools retrofitted to your workflow. Every solution is built by our directors, delivered to production standard and maintained for the long term.

  • Custom LLM integration
  • ML model development & deployment
  • Intelligent document processing
  • AI-powered workflow automation
  • End-to-end delivery, design to production

02

Pipelines, warehouses & analytics

Data Engineering

AI is only as good as the data behind it. We build the data infrastructure that powers great decisions: ingestion pipelines, cloud warehouses and real-time dashboards. Clean, reliable and available when it is needed.

  • Data pipeline design & build
  • Cloud data warehouses (BigQuery, Snowflake)
  • Real-time streaming (Kafka, Flink)
  • BI dashboards & reporting
  • Data quality, governance & observability

03

Clarity before commitment

AI Strategy & Consulting

Most organisations know AI should be part of their future. Fewer know where to start or how to evaluate what is worth building. We work with leadership and technical teams to define a realistic AI strategy grounded in your actual data capabilities, budget and business objectives.

  • AI readiness assessment
  • Use-case identification & prioritisation
  • Technology selection & build-vs-buy analysis
  • Staged transformation roadmap
  • Executive workshops & board briefings

Models, APIs and existing systems, connected

AI Integration

Adding AI to an existing business means connecting models to data, APIs to workflows and outputs to the people who need them. We handle the integration layer (authentication, orchestration, error handling, monitoring) so the AI becomes a reliable part of your operation rather than an isolated experiment.

  • Third-party AI integration (OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS, Azure)
  • API orchestration & middleware
  • AI model serving & auto-scaling
  • Production monitoring & alerting
  • Legacy system modernisation

05

Hands-on upskilling for teams & leaders

Training & Workshops

The gap between knowing AI exists and knowing how to work with it effectively is wider than most organisations realise. We run practical, hands-on sessions tailored to your team's level, from executive introductions through to deep technical training for engineers.

  • AI & LLM fundamentals for business teams
  • Prompt engineering & RAG
  • Data engineering practices for ML
  • MLOps & model lifecycle management
  • Embedded team mentoring
