AI Engineering · Yorkshire · Canarlo, Leeds
An AI agency for Yorkshire that ships production systems — evals, observability, governance. Based in Leeds, on-site anywhere in the region within a day.
Across Yorkshire
Yorkshire's economy is broader than the London commentary gives it credit for. Financial and legal services in Leeds, advanced manufacturing around Sheffield, insurance and bioscience in York, distribution at the Wakefield motorway junctions, food and logistics out of Bradford. Different sectors, same underlying problem: operations that run on spreadsheets, email, and one person who knows how everything works.
That's the gap an AI agency should fill: document processing with citations, agents with audit trails, plain automation where AI would be theatre. Fixed scope, from £8k to £100k.
Being in the region matters more than it should. A webhook that fails at four on a Friday gets seen before Monday. An architecture question gets answered across a table in Leeds, York, or Sheffield rather than in a calendar hunt across time zones. UK contract, GBP invoicing, VAT handled.
On-site from Leeds
On-site anywhere in Yorkshire within a day, most of it within the hour: Leeds is home, Bradford and Wakefield are twenty minutes out, York and Harrogate around half an hour, Sheffield under an hour by train. We have dedicated pages for each — see the city links below.
Delivery itself runs remote-first — weekly demos on a real preview URL, readable diffs, UK office hours. The engineer who writes the proposal writes the code and takes the call when something breaks.
What we build
The full detail — what we build, how it works, pricing — lives on the service pages. They cover the whole of the UK; /services/ai-engineering is the place to start.

How much does AI engineering cost? →Frequently asked
All of it, from Leeds. West Yorkshire (Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Halifax) is same-day. York, Harrogate, and Sheffield are an easy train ride. For the rest of North and East Yorkshire we schedule on-site days around kickoff and architecture reviews.
No — most of our Yorkshire clients aren't. They're manufacturers, distributors, professional-services firms, and SaaS teams with a concrete operational problem. Sometimes the answer is AI; often it's a well-built automation or web app. We tell you which before you spend.
A 20-minute call, then a written brief. If the fit is wrong we say so on the call. If you want a low-friction start, the £8k AI System Audit produces a thirty-page report on your system before you commit to a build.
Fixed-fee tiers from the £8k AI System Audit to £100k production builds, scope written down before billing starts. Invoiced in GBP, VAT itemised. The SOW names the technological uncertainties so your accountant can file the R&D tax credit claim without rewriting anything.
You. The repo, the schemas, the eval set, the runbook. No Canarlo SaaS in the loop, no licence fees — plain TypeScript any competent engineer can pick up. Vendor swap is a config change, not a re-architecture.

Twenty minutes, UK office hours. If the work fits, we’ll say so. If you’re better served by an audit first — or by not hiring us at all — we’ll say that too.
