# Atchai > Atchai is an independent AI consultancy founded in 2011 in London, UK. We help organisations identify, build, and deploy AI systems that work. Our founder and CTO, John Griffin, is personally involved in every engagement. We are tech agnostic with a preference for open source. We combine 15 years of enterprise delivery experience with the agility of a small, senior team. Clients include the UK Cabinet Office, Bank of England, NHS, FCDO, Microsoft, Unilever, Cisco, and Danone. Atchai provides AI strategy, engineering, and consulting services.
