# Attercop

> AI consultancy specialising in production-ready AI systems for private equity firms, portfolio companies, professional services firms, and life sciences organisations. Knowledge-first approach with 100-day transformations.

## About

Attercop is a London and Brighton AI consultancy that commenced operations in 2023. We combine deep technical expertise (data scientists, former CTOs, AI researchers) with an understanding of PE timelines and value creation imperatives. Our sole focus is AI — it is our DNA, not a pivoted service line.

We serve PE funds, their portfolio companies, mid-market professional services firms (15–200 people), life sciences organisations, and growth-stage businesses across the UK and EU.

## Services

- **AI Strategy & Roadmap**: Board-ready AI strategies aligned with investment thesis and business objectives. From opportunity assessment through to implementation planning.
- **Knowledge Engineering**: Building knowledge graphs, ontologies, and hybrid retrieval systems (RAG) that turn unstructured data into queryable, governed knowledge.
- **Agentic AI**: Designing and deploying autonomous AI agent frameworks. Agents that observe, suggest, and act — earning autonomy through proven performance.
- **AI Governance & Assurance**: Shadow AI discovery, EU AI Act compliance, GDPR readiness, and portfolio-wide risk aggregation. Live governance intelligence via the APAG platform.
- **Conversational AI**: Production virtual assistants and natural language interfaces grounded in enterprise knowledge.

## For Private Equity

AI services for PE firms and their portfolio companies, delivered at two levels:

### For Your Firm — PE Operational Intelligence

The Attercop Platform connects a PE firm's deal CRM, fund accounting, portfolio monitoring, shared drives, and communications into a unified knowledge graph. Three layers: (1) connected knowledge with identity resolution across all sources, (2) natural language access for querying across systems, (3) governed agents for IC preparation, portfolio monitoring, LP reporting, and institutional continuity. Delivered as a managed service.

### For Your Portfolio — Across the Investment Lifecycle

- **AI Due Diligence**: Two-tier AI technical due diligence (1-2 week Diagnostic and 2+ week Full DD) assessing data quality, model robustness, and existential dependencies.
- **First 100 Days**: Portfolio company AI strategy (Weeks 1-4), then lighthouse delivery via the Attercop Platform (Weeks 5-12).
- **Value Creation**: The Attercop Platform — a managed operational intelligence platform with unified data layer, natural language querying, knowledge engineering, and governed agents. Cross-portfolio learning.
- **Exit Preparation**: The Framework produces audit trails, governance documentation, and deployment metrics for Gold Standard positioning. Exit readiness timelines (12-18 month ideal through 3-6 month minimum viable).

15+ PE firms served. 50+ deals advised. 30+ AI TDDs delivered.

## For Professional Services

The Attercop Platform connects CRM, resource planning, finance, HR, and document management into a single queryable platform, then deploys governed AI agents that earn autonomy through proven performance. Delivered as a managed service — no technical team required.

## For Life Sciences

Specialist AI consulting for pharma, MedTech, CDOs, and healthcare organisations. We transform complex biological and clinical data into competitive advantage through knowledge engineering, hybrid retrieval, and governed agentic automation.
