AI AUTOMATION · ENGLAND
London AI automation company building AI agents, custom copilots, workflow automation and document AI for banks, payments, insurance, capital markets and professional services across the City, Canary Wharf and central London.
Why London operators are turning to AI automation
London concentrates the UK's regulated finance, capital markets, insurance and professional-services economy — every meaningful bank, payment institution, insurer, broker, asset manager and law firm operates people, controls and obligations here. That translates into the highest-value AI automation opportunities in the UK: reconciliations, KYC/AML triage, contract review, claims triage, trade-support workflows, customer operations and back-office processes where AI agents and workflow automation take the repeatable 70% and hand the exceptions to your team.

TRUST & CREDENTIALS
How we work, and what stands behind it
This page is maintained by Forth Systems. Everything listed below describes our own team, hosting choices and the technologies we build on — it is a statement of practice, not an independent certification or an endorsement by the vendors named.
UK team & data residency
Who builds it, and where your data sits while they do.
UK-based engineers
Edinburgh-headquartered. Every system is designed, built and supported by our own UK-based engineering team — no offshore delivery pool.
UK / EU hosting by default
Applications and databases are provisioned in UK or EU regions unless you require otherwise, with encryption in transit and at rest.
Human-in-the-loop by design
Every AI system we ship keeps a manual override. Nothing irreversible happens without an operator able to review, edit or stop it.
Audit trails as standard
Automated actions are written as first-class records — who or what did it, when, against which input — so operations stay evidence-ready.
Systems we build on
The platforms our systems run on. These are the technologies we deploy and support — not sponsorships or reseller badges.
OpenAI, Anthropic & Google models
Model-agnostic delivery. We route each workload to the model that fits it on cost, latency and accuracy, and can switch without a rebuild.
Supabase & Postgres
Row-level-security Postgres as the operational spine under every platform we run.
Stripe payments
Payment capture, checkout and reconciliation wired directly into job and permit workflows.
Xero, Sage & HubSpot integrations
Production integrations into the finance and CRM systems UK operators already run, so automation lands where the business keeps its records.
Streetworks & industry credentials
Operational domains we build in daily, with the sector systems we integrate against.
DfT Street Manager integration
Our Kerbco permit chain creates and tracks streetworks permit applications against DfT Street Manager and local highway authority processes.
NRSWA-aligned workflows
Permit, reinstatement and traffic-management workflows built to the New Roads and Street Works Act process contractors are inspected against.
Traffic management planning
Roadplan produces signing and guarding layouts for council submission and for the crew installing them on site.
Operator-built, not consultancy-built
We run streetworks and plant operations ourselves. Every platform started as a system we needed in our own business.
Insurance certificates, registration numbers and security documentation are available on request — ask the team.
