The human partner you need for AI transformation.
We're an AI consulting and development company for startups and SMEs in the UK. We start by working out where AI will really help your business. Then our generative AI development services design, build and integrate the AI and automation to do it, with results you can measure.
Custom AI solutions we specialise in.
01
AI knowledge assistants for your team
An assistant that answers questions from your own documents, policies and procedures, so your team has one place to find answers.
02
AI agents for lead qualification and routing
An agent that talks to website visitors, qualifies them and hands the ready ones to your sales team. Our AI agent development services also cover custom AI agent development: agents that work inside your own systems, such as your CRM.
03
Document processing
Invoices, claims and contracts read, checked and entered into your systems automatically.
04
AI chatbots and customer support copilots
As an AI chatbot development company, we build chatbots trained on your own information, from an AI chatbot for small business websites to support copilots for growing teams. They handle routine questions and send follow-up emails, so your team can focus on the hard ones.
05
Sales and proposal automation
Personalised outreach, follow-ups and standard proposals written and sent faster, so deals move quicker.
06
Predictive analytics and forecasting
Machine learning on your historical data to spot patterns and forecast sales and finance.
07
Workflow automation
Repetitive tasks handled automatically, with fewer errors, so your people can focus on work that needs judgement.
Choose the right AI approach for your business.
For you if you're not sure where AI fits.
For you if you have a use case in mind and want to test it first.
For you if you're ready to roll it out.
Our AI consulting services start with an audit of how you work. We check what's feasible and rank the use cases.
We build a low-cost prototype on your data.
We integrate it with your systems, refine it and monitor it.
You end up with a clear first step that has the biggest payoff.
You get a clear answer: go ahead, or change course.
And we help your team adopt it.
Why UK businesses choose Exline Labs as their AI consultancy.
UX-first AI
We talk to your users before we decide where AI goes, so it fits the way people actually work.
We build with AI ourselves
We're an AI software development company. Our engineers use AI tools every day, and we fix AI-built apps for a living. We know what these tools do well and where they fall over.
Quality checks built in
Every AI feature has checkpoints that catch wrong answers and let a person step in.
Your data stays private
Where your data is sensitive, we can run open-source models on private UK servers, so it isn't shared with outside AI providers.
Long-term results
We measure whether the AI is still paying off after launch, and improve it.
How we take your AI idea into a full product.
01
Discovery and use case
- A discovery call, an audit of your current systems and interviews with the people involved.
- Then we pick the use case worth doing first.
02
Data and feasibility
- Once the plan is agreed, we check the quality and volume of your data.
- You keep ownership of it, and we only get the access we need.
03
Prototype and evaluation
- We build a prototype on sample data, test it and adjust it.
04
Integration and security
- We plan how it fits your existing software and workflows, with data safety first.
05
Testing and rollout
- Full QA and final testing, then a careful rollout.
06
Monitoring and improvement
- We monitor it after launch and improve it based on real data and user feedback.
AI built with privacy, security and governance in mind.
Data handling
We only collect the data we need, only use it for what we agreed, and handle personal data under UK GDPR. The AI products we host run on UK servers.
Access and permissions
Your contract sets out who owns the data, who can access it and for how long.
People stay in the loop
Every workflow has a person who can review and correct the AI.
Monitoring and audits
We monitor the product before and after launch, and audit it regularly.
When AI isn't the answer
If AI isn't the right fix for your problem, we'll tell you at discovery and save you the money.
Our AI development projects.
Building an AI noise logging app in a week, with nothing leaving the phone
NoiseCase is our own app. It logs a noise incident in one tap with a decibel reading, then turns the whole case into a single report with AI-written summaries. Everything runs on the phone, so no recording leaves it unless the user chooses.

Communication was always followed up and deliveries were on time. They were always available for additional help and support. This is not what I experienced with the agency I used before — with Exline I always knew exactly where the project stood.

Let us know your need.
Before your discovery call, we research your idea and come prepared with findings, not just questions.
Answering your AI development questions.
How much does AI development cost?
It depends on what you want to build. We usually start with a short proof of concept, so you see results before committing to a full build. You'll get a detailed quote after a free discovery call.
How long does it take to develop an AI product?
It depends on the scope. A proof of concept on your own data usually takes a few weeks, and it tells you whether the idea works before you commit to a full build. Your proposal confirms the full timeline before work starts.
What about the privacy of our data?
We handle your data under UK GDPR, and the AI products we host run on UK servers. Where your data is sensitive, we can run open-source models on private UK servers, so it isn't shared with outside AI providers at all.
What's the difference between AI consulting and AI development?
AI consulting works out where AI will pay off and what to build. AI development builds it and connects it to your systems. We do both, so the advice and the build come from one team. Read the full comparison.
Do you integrate AI into our existing systems and workflows?
Yes. Our AI integration service covers advice on where it fits and the engineering to connect it to the software you already use.
Do you monitor and support AI products after launch?
Yes. We monitor them, check the answers they give, update them as models improve and scale them as your usage grows, usually on a monthly retainer.
Who owns the intellectual property?
You do. All work is done on a work-for-hire basis, including any models we train for you.
Let's build AI that drives real results for your business.
