The Silent Failure of AI at Scale

95% of AI pilots never reach production. Not because the models are bad, but because the infrastructure is fragile. Organisations are rushing to deploy "magic" without building the plumbing.

We don't just write reports. We fix the plumbing. Altablack steps in where generic consultancies fade out, providing deep, forensic engineering reviews and architectural blueprints that ensure your AI investment survives contact with the real world.

Leaders Prioritising AI
Executive intent is clear, but the gap between strategic ambition and engineering reality remains the primary failure mode.

Struggle to Prove ROI
Without clear architecture and governance, organisations fail to attribute value effectively, turning AI initiatives into cost centres.

What we do

/// 01 ARCHITECTURE

AI architecture and capability building

Design of AI strategies, capability blueprints, and maturity models. We architect data pipelines, ML platforms, and inference systems that are cost efficient, resilient, and built to scale.

AI Architecture Blueprints and Infrastructure Design
AI Governance and Code Auditing
/// 02 GOVERNANCE

Governance, risk and system auditing

Independent technical audits of models, infrastructure, and deployment processes. We assess robustness, drift, bias, and operational risk to ensure your systems can withstand regulatory scrutiny.

Explore Governance
/// 03 ADVISORY

Investor and executive advisory

Technical due diligence for investments in AI-driven companies. We assess product feasibility, architectural scalability, and team execution readiness to separate signal from noise.

Common Questions

We are engineers, not generalists. We don't just deliver slide decks; we review code, assess architecture, and provide technical roadmaps that your engineering teams can actually use.
We focus on the infrastructure, governance, and architecture surrounding the models. While we understand model training deeply, our value is in ensuring those models can be deployed, scaled, and governed effectively.
We work with Series B+ scale-ups, Enterprise innovation teams, and Venture Capital firms who are making significant investments in AI and need technical certainty.

Intelligence

We don't keep our findings behind closed doors. Below are our latest research notes, case studies, and unfiltered perspectives on the engineering realities of AI at scale.
