Complex operations.
Simple workflows.

We design and build custom software and AI systems that turn your most complicated processes into tools your team can use on day one.

The problem

Your process works. Until it doesn't.

Critical processes live in spreadsheets that only one person fully understands.

The same data is re-entered across systems, and every re-entry is a chance to get it wrong.

Knowledge is stuck in one person's head, and they're on holiday.

Off-the-shelf software almost fits, but the 'almost' costs you hours every week.

Errors slip through and each one is expensive to find and fix.

You know the process is costing you time and money. You just can't buy the fix.

If your business has outgrown its tools but no product fits, that's where we come in.

What we build

Systems shaped around the work

Every engagement is different, but most of what we build falls into four areas.

Internal tools & operational platforms

Custom systems for the workflows that no off-the-shelf product can handle. Built around how your team actually works.

AI agents & automation

Multi-agent systems that analyse, recommend and act, with humans firmly in control of every decision that matters.

Data capture & registries

Structured, reliable data collection across many sites and users, replacing paper, spreadsheets and guesswork.

Systems integration

Connecting the tools you already use into one coherent flow, so data stops being re-entered by hand.

How we work

Four steps. No mystery.

A disciplined process is how we move fast without breaking things.

  1. 1

    Map

    We sit with your team and map the real process, not the one in the manual.

  2. 2

    Simplify

    We redesign the workflow before writing a line of code.

  3. 3

    Build

    We ship working software fast, in short iterations you can test.

  4. 4

    Support

    We host, maintain and evolve the system as your business changes.

Selected work

Two decades of shipping software

From the early web to AI agents. The tools change. The discipline of making complex things simple doesn't.

Multi-agent AI decision system

Five specialist AI agents each analyse a problem from their own area of expertise and propose actions to a supervising agent, which evaluates every proposal and decides whether to act. Built to remove emotional bias from high-stakes, time-sensitive decisions, with full logging of every recommendation and decision.

Clinical registry platform

A multi-centre medical registry for kidney disease, now in trial across more than 40 clinical centres in Nigeria. Replaced fragmented paper-based records with a single structured, secure system that clinicians can use quickly, with a dialysis workflow module in development.

E-commerce operations

Our founding team built and operated a consumer brand from launch to $10M+ in revenue, designing its operations, international logistics and systems end to end. We understand how real businesses run, not just how software works.

Regulated claims management platform

A purpose-built CRM for managing financial mis-selling claims, built from scratch and used to process tens of thousands of claims. Handled high volumes of sensitive personal and financial data in a heavily regulated industry, with structured workflows taking each claim from intake to resolution.

Property search platform (acquired)

A nationwide residential and commercial property search platform covering the UK. The underlying technology was acquired by an industry company.

Business infrastructure

Designed, built and maintained IT infrastructure for businesses over a decade. Servers, networks and complete server rooms built from scratch. We understand systems from the hardware up, which shapes how we secure and scale everything we build.

Why Ansell Fox

Built by people who've run the business

Operators, not just developers

We've built and run $10M+ businesses ourselves. We design systems the way people who run companies need them to work, seamlessly for all team members.

Two decades of building

From early web platforms to multi-agent AI, we've shipped software through every generation of technology. We use the latest tools to build faster than ever.

Speed

Modern AI-assisted development means working software in weeks, not quarters.

Simplicity as a discipline

If your team needs a manual, we haven't finished.

Security by design

Built for sensitive data from day one.

We've built systems handling clinical records, regulated financial claims and commercial data. Security isn't a feature we add at the end. It shapes the architecture from the start.

Encryption everywhere

Data encrypted in transit and at rest.

Least-privilege access

Role-based permissions so people see only what they need.

Full audit trails

Every action is logged and traceable.

Secure infrastructure

Hardened hosting, isolated environments, automated backups and tested recovery.

Privacy-first design

Data minimisation and GDPR-aware handling of personal and health data.

Your data, your control

Clear data ownership, and deployment in your own cloud environment, if required.

  • Our systems run on SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified cloud infrastructure.
  • Built to align with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 controls.
  • We sign Business Associate Agreements for HIPAA-covered healthcare work.
