aion is an applied AI research lab. We build, deploy, and improve production-grade AI systems for enterprises. This includes custom model development, agent orchestration, fine-tuning, inference optimization, and ongoing system improvement. We work across fintech, healthtech, retail, e-commerce, telecom, and insurance.

How is aion different from other AI companies?

Most enterprise AI companies orchestrate third-party models (OpenAI, Anthropic) into workflows. We build custom models, fine-tune foundation models to your domain, and optimize inference and training performance through our in-house research team. We also deploy forward-deployed engineers who embed directly inside your organisation, and we ship everything on our proprietary Nexus platform.

Nexus is aion's proprietary AI platform. It includes five modules: Nexus Agents (orchestration and workflows), Nexus Models (model routing and evaluation), Nexus FDEs (human-in-the-loop governance), Nexus Optimise (continuous feedback and refinement), and Nexus Shield (enterprise security and compliance). It's the software layer our engineers use to ship production AI fast, cheap, and reliably.

What are forward-deployed engineers (FDEs)?

FDEs are aion engineers who embed directly inside your organisation. They work alongside your team to design, build, and deploy AI systems that integrate with how your business actually operates. They stay until the system runs without them.

What industries do you work with?

We work with enterprises that have domain expertise and proprietary data but need help building production AI systems. Most of our customers operate in fintech, healthtech, retail, e-commerce, telecom, and insurance.

What is the free AI audit?

Before we write a single line of code, our FDEs assess your AI maturity, infrastructure readiness, and highest-impact use cases, benchmarked against industry peers. It's completely free, no commitment required, and gives you a clear view of where the real ROI opportunities sit.

What is the 14-day bootcamp?

This is where most partnerships start. In two weeks, our FDEs embed with your team and build a working MVP on the Nexus stack, scoped to a real business problem, running on your data, evaluated against your success metrics.

How fast can aion deliver results?

Most enterprises go from first conversation to a working MVP in under a month. The free audit takes a few days, the bootcamp runs over two weeks, and production deployment follows from there. We move in weeks, not months.

Does my data leave my environment?

No. Our FDEs deploy directly into your infrastructure. Your data never leaves your control plane. Nexus Shield provides role-based access control, multi-tenancy, full audit trails, and data residency controls.

Do you build custom models or just use off-the-shelf APIs?

Both, depending on what the use case requires. We build custom models from scratch when off-the-shelf isn't good enough, fine-tune foundation models to your domain and data, and optimize inference and training for speed and cost. This is a core differentiator: we develop models, not just workflows around other people's models.

What does aion Research do?

Our in-house research team works on the hardest problems in production AI: evaluation and reliability, custom model development, agent architecture, feedback loops and self-improvement, governance and auditability, and fast inference and efficient training. Every method we develop gets pressure-tested in live enterprise deployments before it becomes part of the Nexus platform.

How does pricing work?

The AI audit is free. The 14-day bootcamp is a paid engagement scoped to one use case. Ongoing deployments are priced based on scope, complexity, and duration. We structure engagements so you see ROI before committing to a longer partnership.

Agents

AI agents that reason

over your business.

Most enterprise agents are glorified prompt chains. They retrieve text, generate a response, and hope for the best. Nexus agents reason over the graph of your systems, data, and workflows to take actions that are contextual, governed, and auditable.

Capabilities

What Nexus agents do.

Real work across your entire stack.

Agents operate across your entire stack: CRM, ERP, billing, support, communication platforms, databases. They read from your systems, reason over the unified knowledge graph, and write back through your existing APIs with the same validation and business rules your human teams use.

Back-Office Automation

Deal-to-invoice. Contract reconciliation. QBR generation. Cross-system validation. Agents handle the manual handoffs between your core systems so your team focuses on decisions, not data entry.

Customer Intelligence

Churn prediction from the relationship graph. Personalised retention triggered by real-time risk signals. Cross-sell agents that reason over household structure, usage patterns, and device-plan mismatches.

Operational Intelligence

Network fault diagnosis. Predictive maintenance from sensor graphs. Asset optimization. Agents correlate signals across systems that were never designed to talk to each other.

Knowledge Capture

Every transcript, interaction, and document ingested into the knowledge graph. Agents surface trends, flag risks, and answer questions about your business with full context.

Pipeline

How agents run on Nexus.

Data. Evaluate. Deploy. Govern.

The agent's memory. The agent's test. The agent's rollout. The agent's rules. A continuous loop — each agent runs through every stage on every deploy.

Data

The agent's memory.

Connect to the systems your agents will reason over. Ingest documents, transcripts, and relational records into the unified knowledge graph. Every signal becomes addressable context.

Live system feeds

Evaluate

The agent's test.

Probe accuracy, latency, robustness, and bias against domain-specific benchmarks. Replay production traces. Catch regressions before they hit users — not after.

Deploy

The agent's rollout.

Canary releases with traffic shifting. Versioned tools, prompts, and policies. Roll forward and roll back in seconds. Every change tracked, every deploy reversible.

Govern

The agent's rules.

Action logs, approval workflows, and policy-bound autonomy. Nexus Shield governs every step — what the agent reads, what it writes, who approves it.

Differentiation

What makes Nexus agents different.

Built for business, not benchmarks.

Nexus agents are designed around how enterprises actually run: workflows with dependencies, decisions with context, errors with recovery paths.

Built Around Business Workflows

Nexus models workflows as connected systems, not isolated tasks. Agents understand how tools, approvals, and data sources relate to each other.

Reasoning With Dependencies

Agents know what needs to happen first, what depends on previous steps, and when action should be taken. Fewer errors. More reliable automation.

Connected Context, Not Just Search

Agents trace relationships across your systems, data, and documents to answer complex business questions with context.

Recover Before Escalating

When something fails, agents attempt to diagnose and resolve issues before involving humans. Teams focus on exceptions, not routine errors.

Governance

Governance is not optional.

Every action, fully audited.

Three governance primitives wrap every agent on Nexus. Provenance, approval, and access — applied by default, configurable per workflow.

Full Provenance, Always

Every action an agent takes is logged with full provenance: which data it used, which model produced the decision, which policy rule approved it, which system executed it.

Human In The Loop, By Design

Critical actions trigger approval workflows in Slack, email, or your existing tools. Configurable per action type, monetary threshold, and customer tier. Fully autonomous for routine operations, human approval for high-stakes decisions.

Inherited Identity & Access

Role-based access is inherited from your identity provider. Agents respect the same access boundaries as human users. Nexus Shield governance applies to every agent action by default.
