About UK AI Automation
AI Automation Consultant — Helping Legal & Consultancy Teams Since 2013
The Background
UK AI Automation was founded in 2013 by an automation consultant who had spent years building data pipelines and automation systems for financial services clients in London. The insight was simple: businesses — particularly in legal, consultancy, and financial services — were spending enormous amounts of time on manual data work that could be automated.
Over the past decade the focus has shifted from general data collection toward AI-powered automation: extracting structured data from documents, automating research workflows, building data pipelines that connect existing systems, and creating custom AI agents that handle multi-step tasks autonomously. The clients are the same — legal firms, consultancies, financial services businesses — but the tools have moved on significantly.
Our Core Values
The principles that guide everything we do
You Own the Code
Everything I build belongs to you. Full source code, documentation, and handover — no vendor lock-in, no black boxes.
GDPR Compliant by Default
Data protection is built into every project from the start — not added at the end. I provide full documentation for your compliance records.
Fixed Prices
Every project is quoted at a fixed price up front. No hourly billing surprises. You know exactly what you're getting before work starts.
Direct Access
You deal directly with me — the person who writes the code. No account managers, no project coordinators, no handoffs to offshore teams.
Honest Scoping
If a project isn't a good fit for automation, I'll tell you. I'd rather have a short honest conversation than sell you something that won't deliver value.
Fast Delivery
Most projects are scoped, built, and delivered within 2–4 weeks. No lengthy onboarding or methodology frameworks to navigate.
By the Numbers
A decade of AI and data automation
Our Mission
Manual data work is a tax on skilled people's time. A paralegal spending two days extracting data from contracts, a consultant manually compiling a competitor report, a compliance officer trawling through regulatory updates — none of that needs to be done by hand anymore.
I build AI systems that handle those tasks automatically, so the skilled people in your team can spend their time on the work that actually requires their expertise.

About UK AI Automation
Founder & Lead Engineer — UK AI Automation
I founded UK AI Automation in 2013 after spending several years building data pipelines and automation systems for financial services firms in London. I kept seeing the same problem: highly skilled people spending hours doing work that automation could handle in minutes.
For the first decade I focused mainly on AI Automation and data collection. Over the last few years the work has shifted substantially toward AI-powered automation — using LLMs to extract data from documents, building research agents that monitor and summarise information automatically, and creating data pipelines that connect systems that were never designed to talk to each other.
I work primarily with law firms and management consultancies. These are organisations where the cost of skilled people's time is high and the volume of manual data work is significant — which makes automation genuinely valuable rather than just interesting.
Technical background: .NET/C#, SQL, REST APIs, LLMs and RAG pipelines, ETL and data pipeline tooling, cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure). Based in North Walsham, Norfolk.
