Bespoke AI you can actually use.
Your AI should work like breathing.
We build tools that disappear into your day.
No jargon. No eighteen-month pilots. No tools your team ignores. Just Gizmos that become colleagues.
That’s how many European companies actually use AI today.
Not “experimenting with.” Not “exploring.” Using.
We call them Gizmos.
Each Gizmo is a carefully crafted agent skill — a specialized intelligence designed for one specific thing your team does every day. A skill that reviews contracts in three languages. A plugin that turns your compliance workflow into a three-sentence conversation. A marketplace of capabilities curated for your company alone.
We don’t build platforms. We craft individual skills, bundle them into plugins, and assemble them into a private marketplace your team can browse and extend — every piece shaped to your processes, your terminology, your way of working.
A toolkit so fitted to your hands that your team will name it, thank it, refuse to give it up.
Clients write thank-you notes to their Gizmos. That’s the measure.
Crafted
Each agent skill is built from scratch for your specific task. Not configured. Not templated. Handmade by people who’ve spent twenty-five years making AI disappear into the workday.
Modular
Skills compose into plugins. Plugins assemble into your private marketplace. Your company gets a curated toolkit that grows with your needs — each piece individually crafted, all of them working together.
Immediate
No training manuals. No workshops nobody attends. Your team uses each Gizmo the way they use Google — because we designed it that way.
Multilingual
Every skill handles natural language, technical jargon, and your corporate dialect. It translates between departments, across borders, without losing nuance.
Transparent
Every answer shows its sources. Every recommendation explains its reasoning. EU AI Act compliance documentation is built in from day one. When auditors arrive, you’re already ready.
Yours
After your Wave, everything belongs to you. The skills, the plugins, the marketplace. No per-seat licenses. No subscription treadmill. Just tools that work.
They name their Gizmos.
Not for everyone.
A 200-person consultancy can’t craft a single skill for your three-person compliance team. Their model doesn’t allow it — the engagement is too small, the attention too specific, the result too invisible to put in a case study. That’s not a criticism. It’s architecture.
We exist in the space they structurally can’t reach. If you have 50–500 people and processes that still live in documents, inboxes, and people’s heads — we should talk.
If you need a transformation programme with a steering committee, we’re not the right fit. We build tools, not slide decks.
Waves, not waterfalls.
Like the ocean, we work in cycles — building, testing, refining — until the tool feels inevitable.
No surprises.
Building custom AI typically costs €20,000 to €100,000. Most companies pay twice that and get prototypes. We believe every company deserves working AI. So we made it accessible.
Craftsmen in the age of AI.
We live between Lisbon’s energy and Ericeira’s waves — proof that the future doesn’t need a corporate campus.
A serial entrepreneur with a PhD in AI and twenty-five years building systems across Europe. He creates code the way he surfs: reading patterns, finding flow, making the difficult look easy.
She knows why people resist tools — and how to design tools they’ll love. When Érica speaks, companies change direction. Not from persuasion. From understanding.
He ensures your Gizmo doesn’t just speak Spanish — it sounds Spanish. When a Nordic client’s team calls their Gizmo by a Finnish nickname, that’s his work showing.
Beyond the Wave.
Gizmo Virtual Trainer — An AI-native training centre run by our team and their Gizmos. Your people learn by doing — real exercises, real feedback, real skills. We prepare organisations for EU AI Act requirements while building the confidence to actually use what they learn.
Masterclasses — Focused sessions on generative AI, compliance, and putting it to work. For leaders who need the full picture before the first Wave.
These fund our mission to make working AI accessible to every company that needs it.
What we’re learning.
Working notes from the craft — not thought leadership theatre.
The Thirty-Eight Point Gap
In 2024 the AI adoption gap between large and small EU enterprises was 30 percentage points. In 2025 it is 38. The tools got cheaper. The interfaces got simpler. The gap got bigger. Adoption is not an awareness problem. It is an architecture problem.
The Model Speaks Fifteen Languages. It Sells in One.
Appen tested seven of the most capable LLMs on a marketing email translated into fifteen language-locales. The text was fluent. The text did not sell. Fluency is table stakes. Cultural competence is the differentiator. None of the seven delivered it.
The Trust Thermometer
Edelman's 2026 data shows trust in AI is not a gradient — it is a cliff. The gap between employees who have personally benefited and those who have not runs from 26 to 46 percentage points. The first interaction is the only one that matters.
The Four Percent Promise
The ECB's chief economist says AI could lift euro area productivity by more than four percentage points over a decade. The condition was adoption reaching at least half the economy. Today's denominator is twenty percent. The promise has a denominator problem.
Complexity is laziness.
One client asked for help with their regulatory filing process. They expected a dashboard, a checklist, maybe some document templates. We built them a three-sentence conversation. Ask the Gizmo what you need to file. It asks two clarifying questions. It produces the complete filing package, correctly formatted, with every source linked.
No interface to learn. No manual to read. That’s the craft: making the complex invisible.
We’ve spent twenty-five years learning this. Building AI systems for millions of users teaches you that every extra feature is a failure of restraint. Every confusing interface is a failure of empathy. Every tool that requires training is a tool that wasn’t finished.
The discipline to keep removing until only the essential remains.
The next Wave starts in three weeks.
While big consultancies prepare their slides, you could already have working AI. Tell us what’s not working. We’ll tell you if we can help — and what it would cost.
