AI for better decision making in government
Imagine a stack of paper 20,000 miles high in the centre of Whitehall. The volume of unstructured information held by government departments is vast.
We are applying LLMs, machine learning and natural language processing techniques to the problem as part of an initiative to improve how government manages its digital information.
Our work received a positive review in The Times and has been described by Luke Sands (Head of Digital at Cabinet Office) as:
"The best use of AI I've seen within government".

Reducing allergy diagnosis time
It takes an average of 11 GP visits and 15 weeks from initial symtoms to diagnosis of cows milk allergy, causing a lot of unnecessary distress for parent and child.
We delivered a conversational AI that acts as a companion for parents throughout this journey, helping them to track symptoms and produce a comprehensive report to take to the GP, significantly reducing the average diagnosis time for CMA.
Over 90% of users would recommend our product to a friend.

We engaged Atchai to develop our first conversational AI offering. We found Atchai’s experience and knowledge of this space invaluable.
Atchai’s approach to the project was very professional and well structured. I look forward to working with them again.

Data-driven decision making for a £1.3B development fund
What is the impact of COVID-19 on global instability? We have developed data insights tooling and strategy to address this question as well as many others for analysts across multiple government departments.
We successfully delivered operational dashboards that demonstrate the ability to extract actionable insights from unstructured text data, along with a long term strategy for building capacity.

A NEW WAY TO ANALYSE COMMUNITIES
A novel social media intelligence tool that uses machine learning and natural language processing to identify and segment communities, enabling social media marketers to deliver more targeted messaging.
Our approach used unsupervised machine learning to build and cluster graphs of social relationships and large NLP models to summarise content.
Our solution makes use of open source technologies including Python, Apache Spark and Elasticsearch in order to scale horizontally in the cloud and handle terabytes of data. The core technical approach has since been patented.

John runs an agile, knowledgeable and experienced team of developers with a strong focus on enterprise, data-driven technical solutions. I have employed them for a recent, very challenging project mining the group associativity of social media networks.
I was highly impressed by the way John runs his team, the agile way in which they approach the work and even more pleased with their ideas and technical input. I would recommend John and his team at Atchai to anyone who needs a competent solution for any data-oriented enterprise project.

Improving Customer service for Government
We're working with the UK Government Department of International Trade to develop an innovative new conversational AI product. The laws around importing and exporting goods are complex, and cover everything from importing plans to exporting military hardware for repair. It can be extremely time consuming for the ordinary citizen or small business to understand whether they need a license, and if so which one.
By using a conversational user interface, we believe that we can reduce the time it takes to find these answers, as well as reducing the burden on human advisors.

The HSCIC (Health and Social Care Information Centre) is the public body that collects, processes and publishes data covering all levels of the UK’s National Health Service for the Department of Health. The NHS is the world’s 5th largest employer, so it generates a lot of data!
Atchai won the project with a competitive bid proposing an open source technology stack including Drupal, integrated tightly with our own Dataseed platform. 200GB of data is imported quarterly into Dataseed’s RESTful API, enabling the public and clinicians to visually interrogate healthcare outcomes, admissions, prescriptions, and administrative datasets through a single, simple interface.

Linked data
platform
The Linked Data Platform is an open source tool-kit that enables the creation of semantically rich, web 3.0 applications, driven by structured and semi-structured data.
We have successfully deployed the LDP as a basis for dataShuttle - an application that takes as it’s input statistics about health problems. It links these up with RDF data such as Ordnance Survey geo-data, to visualise the statistics in a variety of ways, using maps and charts, and allow the linked data to be queried with SPARQL.

Atchai Digital created a highly innovative visualisation tool that successfully demonstrates the value of open health data on an imaginative open-source linked data platform.
This step-change innovation, which was profiled extensively at an international semantic web conference and a Guardian review, represents an important contribution to health informatics.
Atchai’s ability to work in development sprints that result incompelling customer experiences is a clear signature. In fact, the entire Atchai experience is enjoyable, pragmatic, and pleasasantly surprising!
