AI & DS-focused
Is your team stuck between ideas and execution?
Our R&D support helps move things forward without adding full-time staff.
How we can help
Strategy & feasibility
We help shape product ideas and validate early concepts through research, discovery sprints, and feasibility analysis.
This helps avoid wasted time and ensures your team focuses on what can actually be built and delivered.
Prototyping & testing
We develop fast, functional prototypes to test core assumptions.
We build and test solutions, from ML model experiments to minimal AI-driven MVPs, in close collaboration with your product or engineering teams.
Consulting & guidance
We support teams with decision-making: from selecting suitable AI models and frameworks to reviewing data readiness, compliance, and market trends.
When needed, we step in as an external expert team to assess ideas or plans already on the table.

R&D that turned into real solutions
Here are a few examples of what started as research and are now solving our customers’ real problems.
AI co-pilot for legal teams
We worked with a logistics company’s legal department to automate contract review and risk flagging. The tool handles tasks like vendor questionnaires, clause checks, and NDA screening, cutting review time in half and improving detection of non-standard terms.
- 50% time saved across legal operations
- 90% accuracy in identifying risky clauses
- Up to 60% less time spent on manual checks
