The right expertise.
A clear piece of work.
Start with the decision you need to make. Each assessment has an agreed scope, a defined deliverable and time with a senior engineer.
01What should we run, and what should we buy?
Private AI Infrastructure Planning
A practical plan for a new or changing deployment. We review your workload, model options, budget and infrastructure requirements before you commit to hardware.
- Review of one agreed workload and deployment
- Written recommendations on models, hardware and capacity trade-offs
- One 60-minute call with a senior engineer
02Can this model do the work we need?
Model Suitability Assessment
Test a particular model against the tasks that matter to your business. We agree the examples and assessment criteria with you, then run a bounded evaluation of its capabilities and limitations.
- One model and configuration against agreed workload examples
- Written results, failure cases and suitability findings
- One 60-minute findings call with a senior engineer
03What is limiting our inference performance?
Inference Performance and Optimisation Assessment
Understand how a deployed model behaves under your workload. We assess the baseline, investigate bottlenecks and carry out agreed optimisation experiments where useful.
- Agreed deployment, workload and performance measurements
- Written findings and prioritised recommendations
- Senior engineer calls included in the agreed project scope
04Does this design stand up to scrutiny?
Architecture Review
An independent second opinion before you commit. Bring an existing architecture, proposed deployment or supplier specification and we will examine its assumptions, constraints and trade-offs.
- Review of one documented design or supplier proposal
- Written risks, alternatives and recommendations
- One 60-minute call with a senior engineer
£950/month
- One call of up to 60 minutes per month
- Two focused technical reviews by email each month, such as sense-checking a hardware quote, discussing a configuration change or considering whether a model is worth evaluating
- Calls often available same day but prior notice may be needed. Calls take place during UK business hours.
Get an experienced second opinion before committing time and budget. Where deeper investigation would help, we’ll recommend and scope the appropriate assessment.
