We are based in Barcelona and work with London companies constantly — close enough to be in your office when it matters, far enough that we will not pretend a video call is a site visit. The genuinely London-specific part of the work is not the accent: it is that your data now sits on the far side of an adequacy decision from ours.
London's concentration is financial services, insurance, law, media and professional services — which means the AI problems that arrive from it are overwhelmingly document and decision problems rather than manufacturing or sensor problems.
Banks, insurers and asset managers arrive with a process where a person reads a long document and then makes a judgement that has to be defensible months later. The interesting engineering is almost never the model; it is the trace — what the system saw, which policy clause it relied on, who approved it. Our risk and compliance architecture is that pattern written down.
Law firms and in-house legal teams arrive with contract review, discovery and research, and with a hard constraint that client material cannot go anywhere it might be retained or trained on. That usually resolves to a deployment inside their own perimeter, which we cover under legal and compliance.
Media and publishing groups arrive with archives — decades of material that is technically online and practically unreachable. Retrieval over that is the most reliably valuable AI project in the sector, and the least glamorous.
Scale-ups arrive needing AI capability inside the product itself, where the constraint is unit economics rather than compliance. That is a different engagement shape, and it is covered under startups.
No. We have one office and it is in Barcelona. We travel to London for discovery, for handover and for anything where being in the room genuinely changes the outcome. A team our size claiming a London office would be describing a mailbox.
Yes. The major cloud providers all run UK regions, and open-weight models can be self-hosted inside your own perimeter, so a system where no personal data leaves the UK is an ordinary configuration rather than a special build. Where a hosted model is used we document its retention and training terms at the time of writing, and you should confirm them against the provider's current terms.
For contracting, no — we invoice in GBP or EUR and work under a normal services agreement. For data, it is a real question and worth being straight about: we are an EU company, so if we process personal data on your behalf that is a UK-to-EEA transfer needing the appropriate mechanism. In practice most of our engagements avoid it entirely, because the system runs in your cloud accounts and we never hold the data.
Not in itself. Financial services regulators have been consistent that existing rules on governance, accountability and outsourcing apply to AI rather than being replaced by it. What that means practically is a named accountable person, a human decision point where the output affects a customer, and records that reconstruct a decision after the fact. We build for that; your compliance function owns whether it is sufficient.
The same as anywhere else — our ranges are on the pricing page, in euros and exclusive of VAT. We do not price by postcode.
Thirty minutes on the problem, and an honest read on whether we are the right team for it.

What we built, what stage it is at, and a link to the live thing wherever there is one.
yourOS is an operating system with an AI at its heart. You talk to it like a person, out loud or typed. It makes your calls, plans your days and works on your projects with a crew of agents, on your own private server. Our own product, built from the first commit; the waitlist is open.
