Who We Are

The Anti-Consultancy: Technical Depth Without the Overhead

Lucidate was founded in 2021 when we got tired of watching capital markets firms pay massive consulting fees for AI and digital asset strategies that never got implemented.

We're not consultants. We're builders.

What We Actually Do

While traditional consultants sell 6-month strategies, we deliver working AI solutions in weeks. Our specialty? Taking complex financial technology challenges and shipping actual systems that work—without the PowerPoint theater.

Our Focus Areas:

​

• AI Implementation (not AI strategy documents)

• Risk Management Systems (actual models in production)

• Client-facing tools (customised materials, not frameworks)

• Post-Trade Solutions (working code, not process maps)

How We're Different

Traditional Consultants:

• 6-month discovery phases to tell you what you already know

• £500K+ for strategy decks that gather dust

• Armies of junior analysts billing £3K/day

• Success measured by deliverables, not business outcomes

The Anti-Consultancy:

• Working prototypes in 2-4 weeks

• Fixed-price engagements with guaranteed outcomes

• Actual practitioners (not project managers)

• Success measured by systems running in production

The Result? You get real AI capabilities, own all the code and knowledge, and never depend on us again. That's how we measure success—by making ourselves obsolete.
