An AI consultant for Belfast businesses

AI is moving fast and most of it is noise. Teams in Belfast rarely need a research lab; they need someone senior to cut through the hype, pick the few things worth doing, and build them properly. That is what I do: a straight answer on where AI helps, then the engineering to make it real.

I have shipped products with UK and US agencies, global brands and Fortune 500 teams. You get that experience directly, whether you are a Northern Ireland SME automating back-office work or a scale-up putting an AI product in front of customers.

What I do

AI strategy & roadmap

I work out where AI actually moves the needle for your Belfast business, what to do first, and what to ignore.

Custom AI applications

Assistants, copilots, search, document processing and workflow tools, built around your data and your team.

LLMs & automation

Practical automation with large language models: draft, classify, extract, summarise and route the repetitive work.

Data & integrations

The plumbing that makes AI reliable: clean data, retrieval, evaluation, and integration into the tools you already run.

Agentic web & AI2Web

Make your product and site work for AI agents as well as people, using the open AI2Web protocol I help steward.

Build & ship

When you need the whole thing built, I design, engineer, host and maintain it, from prototype to production.

How I work with Belfast clients

I am remote-first and work with Belfast clients on video, meeting in person across Northern Ireland when it helps. Engagements scale to fit: a half-day advisory session, a focused discovery sprint, or a full build I design, engineer, host and maintain. You work with me directly throughout.

Questions

Do you work with businesses in Belfast?

Yes. I work remotely with clients across Belfast and Northern Ireland, on video and in person when it helps. The hard part is rarely distance; it is picking the right first project.

What does an AI consultant actually do?

I help you decide what is worth doing, then make it real. I look at your goals and data, recommend a focused plan, and either guide your team or build the software myself and hand it over running.

How much does it cost?

It depends on scope. Most work starts with a short paid discovery, then a fixed-scope build. Advisory days and retained support are also available. You get a clear number before any build starts.

Are you based in Belfast?

I am a UK-based consultant working remotely with businesses in Belfast and across the country. You get a senior engineer on your project directly, wherever you are.
