About New Gradient - team working

Building bespoke AI solutions for enterprises

We bring frontier AI to business. Deep expertise applied to real-world operations.

THE BELIEF

State-of-the-art AI belongs in every business. Built in, not bolted on.

We exist because frontier AI is too important to remain the preserve of a few. But access alone isn't enough—off-the-shelf tools and bolt-on integrations don't create lasting value. We build AI into businesses: tailored to their operations, integrated with their workflows, and engineered to deliver results they own.

WHAT WE DO

End-to-end, from strategy to adoption. AI that drives tangible results.

From strategy through to deployment and adoption, we work end-to-end. We help you identify where AI will create real value, build systems that fit your specific challenges, and ensure your team actually uses them. No pilots that stall. No tools that gather dust.

WHY US

Government research initiatives to multi-billion pound enterprise. Proven delivery at every scale.

Our team has worked at the frontier of AI—building state-of-the-art systems, not just deploying them. We bring that depth to every engagement: the judgement to know what's possible, and the craft to make it work in the real world.

Technical expertise isn't optional.
It's the foundation of
everything we do.

New Gradient team

We're AI engineers and researchers who've spent six years building AI systems, not talking about them. Every member of our team works hands-on with the technology. That's how we deliver systems that actually work, and why we can stand behind what we build.
