LLM applications

Generative AI Development

LLM-powered applications and copilots grounded in your content, with evaluation before launch.

What this is

Generative AI is useful when it is grounded, bounded and measured. We build applications where the model works from your approved content, returns structured output your systems can consume, and is scored against a fixed test set before anyone outside the team sees it.

The problem

What this service addresses

If more than one of these is familiar, there is usually a case worth scoping.

  • Generic AI writing tools produce text that is fluent, generic and off-brand.
  • The model invents details, and no one can tell which parts of an answer to trust.
  • Output is free-form prose when the system downstream needs structured fields.
  • Prompts live in scattered files with no versioning, testing or review.
Scope

What we deliver

Every item below is a deliverable you receive, not an activity we perform.

  • A generative application grounded in your content and rules
  • Prompt library under version control with a documented change process
  • Structured output schemas validated on every response
  • Model evaluation comparing candidates on your tasks, with the data behind the choice
  • Human review and approval workflow where output is customer-facing
  • Cost and token monitoring per feature
Capabilities

What the system does

01

LLM integration

Provider-agnostic model layer so you can switch or route without rewriting the application.

02

Enterprise AI applications

Generation embedded in the tools your teams already use, inside existing permissions.

03

AI copilots

In-product assistants that draft, summarise and act with the user in control of what ships.

04

Content and knowledge generation

Descriptions, summaries, reports and drafts produced from your structured data and documents.

05

Model selection and evaluation

Candidate models scored on your tasks for quality, latency and cost before commitment.

06

Guardrails

Input validation, output schemas, refusal handling and escalation when confidence is low.

Applied

Where it is used

Each of these is a bounded job with a measurable result, which is how we prefer to scope a first build.

01

Proposal and quote drafting

Assembles a first draft from your templates, pricing rules and the specific client context.

02

Product content at scale

Generates descriptions and metadata from specification data, consistently and on-brand.

03

Report summarisation

Turns long operational or financial data into a written summary in your house format.

04

Internal copilots

Drafts replies, tickets and documents inside existing tools, with a person approving before send.

Architecture

How it is put together

An indicative architecture. The final design follows your systems, data boundary and constraints.

Grounded answers, real account actions, and escalation that carries the whole conversation.
  1. 01
    Content and data sources

    Templates, brand guidelines, product data, documents and transactional records.

  2. 02
    Grounding layer

    Retrieval of approved source material so generation works from fact, not memory.

  3. 03
    Prompt and model layer

    Versioned prompts, structured output schemas, model routing and fallbacks.

  4. 04
    Review workflow

    Draft, human review, approval and publish states for anything customer-facing.

  5. 05
    Evaluation and monitoring

    Automated scoring, regression tests on prompt changes, cost and latency tracking.

Security & governance

Controls we build in

Access, privacy and oversight are part of the build rather than a later hardening phase.

  • Generation grounded in approved sources; the system declines rather than inventing when context is missing.
  • Human approval required before customer-facing output is published, by default.
  • Prompt changes versioned and regression-tested like any other code change.
  • Sensitive fields redacted before they reach a model provider where required.
  • Provider terms reviewed for training use and data retention before selection.
Delivery

How we run the engagement

Our approach

Discovery

Process walkthroughs, data review, constraints and a written scope you sign off before build.

Architecture

Data model, integration boundaries, hosting and the security model, agreed up front.

Proof of concept

A narrow build on your real data against an agreed quality bar, so the go-ahead is evidence-based.

Development

Two-week increments, each ending in a working deployment and a review.

Testing

Automated coverage on critical paths, evaluation sets for AI behaviour, acceptance testing with your users.

Deployment

Staged rollout into your infrastructure with monitoring and a tested rollback path.

Monitoring & support

Quality, cost and latency tracking after launch, with handover documentation or an ongoing retainer.

Questions

Generative AI Development — FAQs

The questions we are asked most often about this service.

How do you stop it inventing facts?

Grounding and evaluation. The model answers from retrieved approved content, output schemas constrain the shape of answers, and a fixed test set measures accuracy before launch. Where context is missing the system says so.

Can it match our brand voice?

Yes, from your existing material and style rules rather than an abstract description. We tune against examples you approve and review output with your team.

Which model should we use?

We benchmark candidates on your actual tasks and show you the quality, latency and cost trade-offs. The answer differs per feature, which is why we route per task.

What does it cost to run?

Driven by volume and model choice. We route each task to the cheapest model that passes your quality bar, cache repeated work and give you a per-feature cost dashboard.
