I founded UK AI Automation in 2013 after spending several years building data pipelines and automation systems for financial services firms in London. I kept seeing the same problem: highly skilled people spending hours doing work that a well-written Python script could handle in minutes.

For the first decade I focused mainly on AI Automation and data collection. Over the last few years the work has shifted substantially toward AI-powered automation — using LLMs to extract data from documents, building research agents that monitor and summarise information automatically, and creating data pipelines that connect systems that were never designed to talk to each other.
I work primarily with law firms and management consultancies. These are organisations where the cost of skilled people's time is high and the volume of manual data work is significant — which makes automation genuinely valuable rather than just interesting.

A mid-size corporate law firm was spending 2 days per deal extracting and summarising data from due diligence packs — contracts, company filings, financial statements. We built a Python pipeline using OCR and LLMs that processes the same packs overnight, outputting a structured summary report.

A management consultancy was spending half a day every Monday manually pulling data from four different systems and compiling a client report. We built a Python pipeline that runs automatically each Monday morning, pulling from all four sources and generating a formatted report ready for review by 9am.
