AI & automation consultancy · Belfast
Veriphae is a Belfast-based AI and automation consultancy. We work with admin- and process-heavy businesses — the ones where half the team's week disappears into spreadsheets, inboxes and re-keying — and quietly build the software that takes it back.
What we do
We don't sell hours, frameworks or platforms. We sell three outcomes — and we organise everything we build around them. If your problem doesn't sit cleanly in one of these, we'll tell you, and we'll point you somewhere better.
Take the repetitive admin off your team's week — quietly, in the background.
Turn ten years of records into something your team can actually ask questions of.
The custom software that joins it all up — and the bit your team actually uses.
How we work
We work in monthly slices with a clear deliverable at the end of each one. You can stop after any month, no fuss. That keeps everyone honest — and keeps us focused on actually shipping, instead of writing decks.
We start with a short discovery — usually a survey to a handful of people, sometimes a couple of calls. We're trying to understand what the work actually looks like, not what the org chart says it looks like.
We come back with a one-page brief, a few wireframes, and a sensible scope for month one. No 80-page strategy decks. No discovery for the sake of discovery.
We build in short cycles — you see real software inside two weeks, not at the end. We use whatever stack fits the job; we don't have a hammer to sell.
We write the documentation as we go, not at the end. When we leave, we leave a system your team can keep running — including the option to take it in-house entirely.
What we won't do
We won't lock you into a platform we resell. We won't run a six-month discovery before you see any code. We won't put junior delivery people on senior problems and call it “agile”. The people on the proposal are the people on the work.

About
Veriphae Ltd is led by Andy McDonald, Managing Director — a hands-on technology lead with deep experience building and integrating the systems that admin- and process-heavy businesses run on every day. Logistics, laboratory services, scheduling, compliance, customer-facing portals, internal tools.
We work with a tight network of senior designers, integration engineers and AI specialists, brought in only when the work calls for them. We don't pad the team to bill more hours, and the person you talk to in week one is the person still on the work in week twelve.
Veriphae is based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and works with clients across the UK, Ireland, mainland Europe and North America.
Get in touch
The fastest way to start is a short email describing what's getting in your team's way. We'll come back within a working day with a few questions, an idea of whether we're the right fit, and what a sensible first month could look like.
