Bespoke intelligence infrastructure

We build connected intelligence systems around the decisions your team makes — bringing sources, organisational knowledge and analytical tools into one reviewable workflow, so people can find reliable evidence, weigh risk and decide what deserves attention.

Illustrative scenarios

Outcomes & new evidence reopen the question

Supplier risk

Decision question

Can we rely on this supplier for next quarter’s capacity?

Owner: Head of Procurement

Would change the answer Insolvency filing · refused audit access · ownership change

Connected sources

Every item keeps source, time and reliability — select one to see it.

The evidence picture

Ownership changed six weeks ago.

The supplier’s own “stable outlook” letter.

Analyst judgment

Likelihood (illustrative) 55–70 %

Strain more likely than not

Band set by the analyst from the indicator mix and its timing.

Strength of knowledge Low–moderate

  • Diversity — three source types, overlapping
  • Independence — reporting partly echoes the register
  • Recency — filings two weeks old
  • Coverage — no interim accounts yet

The analyst downgrades the self-authored letter to an assumption and requests interim accounts.

Decision

Approve with conditions and enhanced monitoring.

Rationale, evidence base and dissent versioned with the decision.

Stage-one indicators watched — a hit reopens the assessment.

The system prepares

Gathers and connects the material, flags the change and the contradiction, prepares an evidence-linked assessment.

Your people decide

Weighs the evidence, seeks corroboration, and decides: approve, condition, defer or escalate.

Fraud operations

Decision question

Is this cluster an emerging attack that needs escalation?

Owner: Fraud operations lead

Would change the answer Shared identity · session-window timing · velocity beyond promotion norms

Connected sources

Every item keeps source, time and reliability — select one to see it.

The evidence picture

Apparently separate alerts

A-1187 velocity

A-1192 device

A-1201 identity

Analyst judgment

Likelihood (illustrative) 40–60 %

Coordinated abuse as likely as not

Band reflects shared-identity evidence against the promotion window.

Strength of knowledge Moderate

  • Diversity — behaviour, device, identity
  • Independence — signals share one pipeline
  • Recency — live feed
  • Coverage — campaign calendar not yet checked

The analyst removes one misgrouped case and requests the marketing calendar before escalation.

Decision

Escalate two cases; keep one under adjusted monitoring.

Grouping rationale and the challenge stay with the record.

Cluster watched for 72 hours; new shared attributes reopen the grouping.

The system prepares

Groups related signals, surfaces what changed, retrieves matching case history, prioritises the review queue.

Your people decide

Tests the competing explanations, corrects misgrouped cases, and decides: investigate, adjust monitoring or escalate.

Research

Decision question

What has changed in this issue, and what evidence supports the answer?

Owner: the analyst who signs the brief

Would change the answer New primary data · contradiction between sources · a scope change

Connected sources

Every item keeps source, time and reliability — select one to see it.

The evidence picture

Sample question

Missing: the implementing guidance — flagged, not guessed.

Consultation close moved from 2 Jun to 21 Apr.

Scope unchanged; two respondent summaries conflict on applicability.

Guidance outstanding — the single material gap.

Analyst judgment

Strength of knowledge Moderate

  • Diversity — documents, data, external
  • Independence — two items share one author
  • Recency — current versions
  • Coverage — one material gap flagged

Two of three source families agree; the third is silent — shown as a gap, not smoothed away.

The analyst revises one inference and approves the brief with the gap stated.

Decision

Brief approved with the gap stated.

Citations, calculations and the revision history travel with the brief.

Source watch on the guidance document — publication reopens the brief.

The system prepares

Interprets the question, retrieves and compares sources, extracts claims, runs bounded calculations and drafts the synthesis — every citation linked.

Your people decide

Checks passages and calculations, challenges unsupported inferences, refines the question, approves the brief.

Strategic warning

Decision question

Could a developing disruption affect our operations?

Owner: Head of Risk

Would change the answer Corridor transit time · input price index · regional staffing

Connected sources

Every item keeps source, time and reliability — select one to see it.

The evidence picture

Watched indicators

Corridor transit time +2 days

Input price index steady

Regional staffing steady

Analyst judgment

Likelihood (illustrative) 30–45 %

Disruption affecting operations within two quarters

Band held from the prior assessment pending confirmation.

Strength of knowledge Low

  • Diversity — reporting-heavy
  • Independence — several items share one wire
  • Recency — today’s sweep
  • Coverage — no on-ground confirmation

No revised warning yet: two independent confirmations ordered; the prior assessment stays in force.

Decision

Hold current posture; collection priority set.

The unchanged indicators and the divergence stay visible in the record.

Indicator set re-checked daily; confirmation triggers a revised assessment.

The system prepares

Monitors the indicators, detects the change, collects relevant reporting, drafts a scenario comparison.

Your people decide

Judges significance, tests alternatives, sets the next collection priority, chooses a proportionate response.

Portfolio risk

Decision question

Does a deteriorating segment warrant intervention?

Owner: Head of Credit Risk

Would change the answer Roll-rate shift · cohort divergence · policy-change overlap

Connected sources

Every item keeps source, time and reliability — select one to see it.

The evidence picture

Roll rate, last eight months

All book Cohorts booked after the policy change

Analyst judgment

Likelihood (illustrative) 45–60 %

A genuine shift in the older cohorts

Band reflects cohort concentration against seasonal effects.

Strength of knowledge Moderate

  • Diversity — trends, cohorts, field notes
  • Independence — internal sources dominate
  • Recency — last month’s close
  • Coverage — one month of post-change data

The analyst defers portfolio-wide action and tests a targeted adjustment on the affected cohorts.

Decision

Targeted test on affected cohorts; portfolio action deferred.

The cohort comparison and its reading stay with the decision.

Cohort roll rates watched monthly; widening divergence reopens the evaluation.

The system prepares

Connects trends to candidate causes, compares cohorts, surfaces exceptions, prepares the evaluation.

Your people decide

Reviews the explanation and trade-offs; decides: intensify monitoring, test a policy adjustment, or defer.

How this works
  • Scores are not probabilities Model output is a score on its own scale. A likelihood band is set by the analyst, with the rationale shown.
  • Strength of knowledge, plainly The quality, diversity, independence, recency and coverage of the evidence behind a judgment. Where it is low, collection comes before conclusion.
  • Bounded by design Agents work within permitted sources, defined permissions and review points. Every step stays inspectable and overridable by your people.
  • Learning stays advisory Outcomes are compared with earlier assessments; calibration and weighting would run as inspectable overlays — a conceptual illustration, not a performance claim.

From question to working capability

  1. Frame the question Identify who needs an answer, what is at stake, and what would change their view.
  2. Connect the evidence Map relevant sources, organisational knowledge, existing workflows and important gaps.
  3. Build the capability Bring collection, analysis and expert review into a working system that fits the team.
  4. Measure and adapt Test whether it improves the work, then refine it with the people using it.
