SpotDev is Certified in the Claude Partner Network

The difference real engineering makes

AI doesn't build, integrate or adopt itself, and off-the-shelf seats only get you so far. SpotDev is an AI and digital transformation consultancy built by software engineers, Certified in the Claude Partner Network, and an OpenAI Select Partner. We engineer Claude into your business properly, whatever you run today.

Without SpotDev

Prototypes that never ship.

A promising proof of concept stuck on someone's laptop. No path to production, no monitoring, no owner.

Built, tested and shipped to production by our in-house Claude-specialist engineers, with monitoring and a proper handover. Supported and improved over time.

AI agent development services for UK businesses

AI implementation is design, engineering, integration, governance and adoption, done properly by engineers who build for production. SpotDev provides AI agent development services to UK companies from around £3m in revenue upwards. We work with the systems you already run, and where data is scattered across spreadsheets and disconnected tools, sorting that out is the first job, because Claude can only be as good as the data it can reach.

Custom AI Agent Development.

Agents built on Claude that handle defined tasks end to end, grounded in your data and shipped to production.

  4. 04

    Adoption & Optimisation.

    We track usage, gather feedback and keep improving the AI as your needs evolve.

What custom AI agents do for teams

Every agent we build is scoped to a real job. These are the patterns we deliver most often.

Sales and revenue agents.

Agents that draft outreach, summarise accounts and surface the right context from your CRM, with every external message and every write to a deal held behind a named person's approval.

Customer service agents.

Agents that handle routine enquiries and route the complex ones to a human. We build tier-1 support agents that answer from your own documentation, around the clock.

Internal operations agents.

Agents that take on repetitive back-office work. We build agents that draft the reports, lookups and documents your team currently produces by hand.

Training and adoption

Your team actually using Claude, not just paying for it

Buying Claude seats is the easy part. We bring the structured training method we use on any major system rollout, so capability spreads across the team and the investment shows up in real, daily work.

Spaced learning that sticks.

Short, hands-on sessions with practice gaps between them, so Claude skills embed into real work instead of fading after a one-off workshop.

Conscious competence across the team.

We bring everyone to at least conscious competence and turn your quickest adopters into internal champions, so capability spreads rather than stalling with a handful of power users.

Adoption you can prove.

A before-and-after competence survey shows how confidence and usage actually moved, so you can see the return on your Claude investment rather than guess at it.

Confident, governed daily use.

People learn what to delegate to Claude, what to check, and where the guardrails sit, so adoption is safe as well as fast.

Common questions about AI implementation

Will the agents work with the systems we already run?

Yes. We are an AI and digital transformation consultancy that builds real software, so we build Claude agents that are deeply integrated with your CRM, your data and your workflows, and with the systems around them: the finance system, the document store, the ticketing system. The AI does real work inside the tools your team already uses.

Our data is scattered across spreadsheets and legacy systems. Can you still work with us?

Yes. Plenty of the Claude work we do starts with whatever a business already runs: spreadsheets, a legacy database, an ERP, or a CRM we did not build. Claude is only as useful as the data it can reach, so the first job is usually getting that data clean, structured and connected. If it turns out you need a proper CRM to get real value from Claude, we will tell you, and we can help you put one in. That is a conclusion we reach together, not a condition of working with us.

How long does an implementation take?

AI Starter takes four weeks, fully remote, for a team of up to 15. AI Foundations is usually live in two to three weeks, with training finished within six. AI Rollout sets up in 30 days and reports on the first department at day 90. A custom agent typically takes four to eight weeks depending on integration complexity, and full AI Transformation runs eight to twelve weeks or more. We focus on shipping something useful quickly, then expanding.

How do we know if we're ready for AI?

Start with our AI & Data Readiness Assessment (£5,000). It evaluates your systems and data, identifies the best agent and rollout opportunities, and recommends the right approach. You'll know exactly what to build and why before committing to delivery. For a single team of up to 15, AI Starter (£3,500) is a quicker way in.

What does a custom AI agent actually do?

A custom agent is software we build to handle a defined task end to end, such as triaging support enquiries, drafting sales outreach or running an internal research workflow. It's grounded in your data, connected to your systems and able to take action, not just answer questions.

Which model should we use, Claude or OpenAI?

We work with both and choose per workload rather than by preference. We look at what the job actually requires, what your business already runs and has already contracted for, what procurement and compliance will accept, and what it costs to run at your expected volume. SpotDev is Certified in the Claude Partner Network and is an OpenAI Select Partner. We choose the model against the workload and the systems you already run. Where OpenAI is the better answer we will say so and build it there, and where the answer is AI you are already paying for inside a system you run, we will say that too.

What about data security and compliance?

Governance is part of every engagement. We establish acceptable use policies, data classification rules and security controls, and we build agents with least-privilege access. Enterprise-grade AI has robust data protection, but only when it's configured and integrated correctly.

Our team is already using AI on their own. Is that a problem?

That's one of the biggest risks we help you avoid. Ungoverned AI means people use personal accounts and paste sensitive data into consumer products. Proper implementation brings AI into the open with the right controls, while giving people better tools than the ones they were sneaking around with.

A colleague has built a tool with Claude Code. Is it safe to put in front of customers or company data?

Not until someone who can read the code has checked it. AI coding tools build what they are asked for, and the prompt rarely covers database access rules, keys or backups. Our vibe code audit reviews the app, fixes what is unsafe and gives you a CTO sign-off on the reviewed version, from £1,500. If your team will keep building, we can also set Claude Code up properly for them.

Will the agents you build be supportable after handover?

Yes. We build for production with proper integration, testing, monitoring and documentation, and we hand over cleanly. You can run it yourself or keep us on an optimisation retainer to maintain, tune and expand it as your needs change.

Is SpotDev an official Claude or Anthropic partner?

Yes. SpotDev is Certified in the Claude Partner Network. We are separately an OpenAI Select Partner and a HubSpot Diamond Solutions Partner. What we provide is the engineering: our Claude-specialist engineers design, build and integrate Claude-based agents with your CRM and business systems, on fixed-scope terms. Our other credentials: HubSpot Diamond partner, Cyber Essentials Plus, and a 5.0 rating across 38 reviews.
