AI-native consulting & software

Consulting and software, connected by AI.

Pomako runs two practices — consulting and software — with AI connecting the two. That makes delivery faster, and lets our consulting take whatever form serves you best: working software, an AI tool, or simply a sharper answer.

What we do

Two disciplines, one team.

Most firms either advise or build. We do both — and AI is the bridge between them. Sometimes our consulting ships as working software; sometimes software is simply how we deliver; sometimes it's AI doing the work behind the scenes. Always, it's faster.

Software

We design and ship production software with AI at the core — not bolted on at the end.

  • AI agents & intelligent automation
  • Custom platforms & products
  • Data & knowledge systems underneath
  • Prototype to production, owned end to end

Consulting

We help leaders cut through the AI noise and act — where it creates value, what to build, how to adopt it safely.

  • AI strategy & pragmatic roadmaps
  • Build-vs-buy & architecture calls
  • Team enablement & ways of working
  • Hands-on delivery, not slideware
Track record

Decades of delivery, not theory.

We've led the hard, high-stakes programmes — including co-founding and delivering Tide for Lloyd's of London.

Flagship

We co-founded Tide — an enterprise data platform for Lloyd's of London.

It replaced manual, spreadsheet-bound processing with software the insurance market relies on — built from first idea to a live, regulated system, and acquired by Charles Taylor. The same complex, regulated delivery we now bring to any sector.

How we work

AI-native means built differently.

Four principles shape everything we deliver — and they're why a small Pomako team can outpace a much larger one.

01

AI-native, not AI-added

We build from the model up. AI isn't a feature we sprinkle on at the end — it shapes the architecture from the first decision.

02

Deterministic where it counts

AI for judgement and language; rigorous, auditable systems wherever a wrong answer has real consequences. We know which is which.

03

Small senior teams

Modern AI lets a focused team outbuild a department. You work with principals who write the code and own the outcome — never a pyramid.

04

Advice that ships

Our strategy work ends in something that runs. We stand behind recommendations because we can build them ourselves.

Sometimes the answer is software. Sometimes it's AI. Always, it arrives faster.

Let's build something.

Whether you need a strategy you can trust or software that ships, start with a conversation.
