{# canonical_link wraps the whole element so a page can drop it entirely (a 404 must not canonicalise to a URL that does not exist); the inner canonical block still allows overriding just the href. #} {# Only the hero headline face is preloaded: it paints above the fold.

Services

RefLens provides focused consultancy and delivery for UK organisations that need experienced technical help without building a full specialist team.

01 AI prototyping and workflow integration

Use AI where it has a clear operational purpose

…and a realistic way to measure quality.

Typical outputs may include:

  • a feasibility assessment and risk register
  • a retrieval-augmented search or question-answering prototype
  • document classification or structured-data extraction
  • an evaluation dataset, quality measures and human-review workflow
  • integration of a tested workflow into an existing application

02 Data science and analytics

Turn a broad question into a reproducible analysis

…or a decision-support tool.

Typical outputs may include:

  • data-quality assessment and cleaning rules
  • statistical analysis or predictive modelling
  • reproducible notebooks and documented methods
  • dashboards or KPI reporting tied to real decisions
  • model limitations, bias checks and monitoring recommendations

03 Data engineering and integration

Make fragmented data dependable

…enough for analysis and software use.

Typical outputs may include:

  • database and pipeline design
  • API and third-party-system integration
  • transformation, validation and audit logging
  • PostgreSQL, vector-search and data-access layers
  • technical documentation and handover

04 Custom software

Build or improve a focused application

…internal tool, API or multi-tenant platform.

Typical outputs may include:

  • requirements and solution architecture
  • a proof of concept or minimum viable product
  • backend, web-interface and API development
  • automated testing, deployment documentation and support
  • an independent review of an existing codebase and delivery plan

05 How an engagement works

  1. Fit call

    Clarify the problem, users, constraints and desired decision or outcome.

  2. Written scope

    Agree deliverables, exclusions, checkpoints, fees, responsibilities and information-security requirements.

  3. Delivery

    Work in visible increments, with demonstrations and decisions recorded.

  4. Handover

    Provide the agreed code, documentation, findings and next-step options.

The first piece of paid work may be a short discovery, a fixed-scope prototype or a defined delivery project. Ongoing consultancy is offered only where it fits the client's needs.
