Claude Partner Network member · London and Dubai

Same team. Three to five times the capacity.

Your people are already using AI, whether it was approved or not. We set the rules, build the operating system around how they actually work, and train them to run it. Over a 6 to 12 month roadmap.

How we work

One path. Govern, build, train, compound.

Govern Build Train Compound 01 02 03 04 Make it safe Rules, red lines, and the shift from fear to use Build the system Your context, your voice, your real workflows Train your people They stop asking questions and start giving it jobs Compound the gains The gains stack, month over month 6 to 12 months
3 to 5x capacity, without adding headcount
5x 4x 3x 2x 1x Month 0 3 6 9-12 Same team, same tools 3 to 5x capacity Month one looks like nothing happens. That is governance. Govern Build Train Compound

Last year an MD showed me eleven AI subscriptions across his team. They used two. Nobody had written down which problem each tool was meant to solve, so the rest sat there unopened. We mapped the actual work, found the three real pain points, and killed eight tools before we went near a model.

So we start with the unglamorous part. Your people, your processes, your culture, mapped and governed first. Get that right and the technology is the easy bit.

Proof

My company is the proof.

IgniteAI is the case study. Bootstrapped in January 2025 with £25,000. A 75-company portfolio and 80+ use cases delivered, run by a small core team and a delivery network of 22 developers, trainers and consultants.

We built this operating system for ourselves before we sold it to anyone. I run it every day. Every claim on this page came out of using it.

The First Step

Governance comes before the tools.

Your people are already using AI. The real question is whether anyone has set the rules yet. We start by making it safe, on two fronts at once.

Human governance is the AI Manifesto: red lines, green lanes, and a team that moves from fear to confident use. Technical governance is ISO 42001, certification-ready, mapped to the jurisdictions you actually trade in.

Get this right and adoption stops being a fight. Your people trust the system, so they use it. That is why governance is step one. We install the guardrails before a single workflow gets built.

The Shield Safety The Heart Culture The Engine System Adoption that holds Shield Policies, red lines and the technical controls that protect you Heart The manifesto and the mindset shift that makes governance real Engine ISO 42001, certification-ready, mapped to where you trade

The build

Claude Built For You: the operating system.

A working system built around your business. It runs the repeatable work with you, so your team spends its hours on clients, not admin. Claude reads your files, writes in your voice, and produces real work in your folders. Five layers, built in this order.

Built in this order 1 Business context Your strategy, your offers, the way you actually work. 2 Individual voice Writes as each person, in their tone and their role. 3 Role skills The expertise of each job, encoded. Sales, ops, finance, the rest. 4 Workflows and schedules Briefings and reports drafted before you ask for them. 5 A living knowledge base Gets sharper the more you use it. Every job feeds the memory. Layer 1 is the foundation. Everything above it rests here.

Where does your business start? With your leadership team.

The standard way in is a SPARK Discovery. We discuss your business, baseline your culture and strategy, and map your AI opportunities. You see where AI fits your actual workflows before a penny goes on the build.

If you want to start with training

We Provide Exceptional Claude Training for Your Team

Methodology, not certification. Most AI training teaches prompting and stops at lunch. We teach your team a method that compounds across their work, and we build the system underneath it. Nobody else is teaching the compound effect, because nobody else is building the operating system behind it.
