Governed AI applications, built, run and improved for you.
AI Studio builds, deploys and manages internal AI applications, tools and workflow systems for ambitious SMEs. Fast enough to create momentum, structured enough to protect the business.
- Managed build and run
- Discover, build, run, optimise
- Microsoft 365 and Teams
Most AI value in an SME sits in ordinary workflows nobody has built software for. AI Studio builds it, and keeps it running.
Three commitments behind every application we build.
AI Studio exists to turn AI from a set of experiments into working, governed software. Everything we ship is held to the same three standards.
Secure by design
Security, identity and data controls from day one, inside your Microsoft 365 tenant rather than beside it.
Outcome driven
Every application is scoped against a measurable point of operational friction, not a demo.
Fully managed
Rollout, optimisation, governance and change are ours to run, on one subscription, for as long as the workflow lives.
Discover. Build. Run. Optimise.
One operating rhythm from workshop to live workflow. Most first applications go live in under thirty days from kickoff, then move straight into a managed run with a quarterly review.
Discover
We identify the highest-value workflow, map the business friction and define the first governed application.
Build
Rapid development of the internal AI tool or workflow system, polished, secure and integrated with Microsoft 365.
Run
We deploy, manage and support the live application. Incidents, bugs and enhancements are all covered.
Optimise
Continuous improvement through usage analytics, governance reporting and quarterly strategic reviews.
Where AI Studio earns its keep.
Six patterns we deliver against most often. Select one to step through the walkthrough.
Cuts time-to-answer for internal queries by up to 70%.
Not agencies. Not consultants. Not a shelfware SaaS.
AI Studio is a subscription-led managed service. We build the workflow, run it against defined service levels and improve it every quarter.
Not an agency
Agencies build and hand over. We stay accountable for the application in production, against defined service levels.
Not a consultancy
Consultants deliver decks and recommendations. We deliver working software your teams use on Monday morning.
Not shelfware SaaS
Public AI tools carry no accountability for your data or your outcomes. AI Studio applications are governed under NumataOne™.
One subscription
Build, run and improve on a predictable monthly cost. No surprise bills when the workflow needs to change.
- First application live in under thirty days from kickoff
- Governed against the NumataOne™ framework and your AI policy
- Integrated with Microsoft 365, Teams and your identity model
- Human-in-the-loop controls and an audit trail on every output
- Quarterly reviews of usage, value and the next workflow
Managed AI governs how you use AI. AI Studio builds the tools you use it in.
The two are designed to run together. Managed AI sets policy, controls and adoption across the business; AI Studio delivers the internal applications that policy governs, and both report into the same quarterly review.
- Managed AI sets the policy, controls and adoption plan for AI across the business.
- AI Studio builds the internal applications and workflow systems that policy governs.
- Both report into the same quarterly review, so value and risk are read together.
Governed AI, in production.
A financial services group builds a governed AI adoption engine.
A South African financial services group replaced fragmented experimentation with a governed adoption model: secure onboarding, AI Champions, role-specific workshops and finance-specific agents for research, compliance, reporting and valuation preparation.
AI Studio, answered.
What does AI Studio actually deliver?
Working internal software: AI assistants, workflow systems, intake portals, document generators and role-based dashboards that run inside your Microsoft 365 environment. Each is built to remove a specific, measurable point of operational friction, then run and improved by us as a managed service.
How is AI Studio different from Managed AI?
Managed AI governs how your organisation uses AI: policy, controls, Copilot adoption and value tracking. AI Studio is the delivery arm that builds and runs the internal applications you use it in. Many clients run both; AI Studio can also be taken on its own where a governance model already exists.
How quickly can the first application go live?
Most first applications are live in under thirty days from kickoff. Discovery takes one to two weeks, build two to three, and the application then moves straight into our managed run.
What happens after the application is live?
We run it. Incidents, bug fixes, enhancements and model or platform changes are covered under the subscription. Usage analytics and governance reporting feed a quarterly review, where we agree improvements and the next workflow to tackle.
Where does our data go?
Applications are built inside your Microsoft 365 tenant and identity model, using governed connectors to the sources you approve. Data handling follows your AI policy and, where you run it, the NumataOne™ governance framework. We do not train public models on your data.
Is AI Studio only for organisations already working with Numata?
No. AI Studio is available on its own, and a short discovery workshop is the usual starting point. Where a client also runs Managed AI or NumataOne™, the applications simply report into the governance and review cadence already in place.
The other named programmes.
Each one packages the same operating standard into a named engagement with a defined scope, cadence and way of evidencing progress.
NumataOne™
The operating model everything else runs on: one lifecycle, one accountable partner and one reporting cadence across the six categories.
DayOne+ for private equity
Value creation across the hold period: transaction-ready diligence at entry, an operating model landed by day one, and evidenced uplift at exit.
Workplace Device Subscription
Devices delivered as a managed subscription: specified, secured, supported and refreshed on a predictable per-user cost, with the lifecycle handled for you.
Have a workflow
in mind?
A short discovery workshop is the fastest way to see whether AI Studio is the right fit for it. You leave with the workflow mapped, the first application defined and a date it can be live.
