New York  ·  London — AI Systems

We build
AI agents
that ship.

While the rest of the world was waiting for the future to arrive, we were building in it. Two years of production AI systems later, we know exactly what works — and we can make it work for you.

The future arrived on schedule.
We were already there.

01 — What we do

Built it while the
market was debating it.

Luke Harris and Luke Donovan-King have 25 years of combined experience in digital marketing and technology. The last 18 months of that have been spent shipping production AI systems — not scoping them, not piloting them. Shipping them.

Foundry builds AI agents that perform entire business functions — marketing, bid administration, sales pipelines, compliance workflows — for companies operating in industries where precision isn’t optional.
01
Two years of production. Zero prototypes.
Every system we’ve built is still running. We know what fails at scale, what breaks under real data, and what actually ships on time. That gap between demo and deployment is where most AI projects die. We’ve been on the other side of it long enough to know how to cross it.
02
We tell you what it costs and when it’s done.
No discovery phases that turn into proposals. No six-week scoping engagements before a line of code is written. Most builds take four weeks. Most clients break even in ten. We put that in writing before we start.
03
We work in your industry, not above it.
We’ve built for marketing, bid administration, compliance, fintech, and government — industries where a wrong output has consequences. We don’t learn your sector on your budget. We come in already knowing what the stakes are.
04
You own what we build.
No proprietary platform lock-in. No monthly licence that disappears if you stop paying. The system is yours — code, infrastructure, documentation. We can run it for you, hand it over, or both. Your call.

02 — Services

Three things.
All of them real.

We do not have a catalogue. We have three areas where our systems consistently outperform everything else on the market — and we will tell you honestly if your problem isn’t one of them.

01 — B2B Growth
AI-driven customer acquisition.
AI-driven outbound pipelines consistently outperform conventional techniques by a significant margin. We build the system to your pipeline, tune it against real data, and hand it over.
  • Outbound lead generation
  • Sales pipeline automation
  • AI-assisted prospecting
  • GEO & AI search visibility
02 — Operations
Agents that run your processes.
Not an integration. Not an API wrapper. A system that reads, decides, acts, and reports — performing the entire workflow your team currently handles manually, around the clock.
  • Process automation
  • Bid monitoring & administration
  • Compliance workflow agents
  • Customer support systems
03 — Machine Learning
Custom ML for regulated industries.
We build machine learning systems for environments where accuracy is not negotiable — fintech, finance, and government. Systems designed to be audited, not just used.
  • Fintech & financial modelling
  • Government & public sector
  • Predictive analytics
  • Audit-ready ML pipelines

03 — Results

How we work.
By the numbers.

No vague claims. Here’s what a Foundry engagement actually looks like.

<4 wks
First working agent
From signed brief to a running system performing the function. Not a prototype, not a pilot — an agent doing the work.
Day 1
We start building
No discovery phase. No proposal for a proposal. We scope the build in the first conversation and start as soon as we’re aligned.
10 wks
Average break-even
At clients’ own estimates of time and cost saved. After that, the system pays for itself every quarter, indefinitely.
“Most of what people are calling ‘the future of AI’ is something we put into production 18 months ago. We know what it takes to make it work. That’s why clients come to us.

what you
need.

We will tell you honestly whether we can help — and if we can, we will tell you how, how long, and what it costs. No discovery calls that end in a proposal for a proposal.
