Sentra is a real-time decision intelligence layer embedded in retail banking frontline interactions. It transforms fragmented customer data into a dynamic…

According to the FCA, over 50% of UK adults have at least 1 vulnerability characteristic. 13 million people still rely on physical branches / in person banking support. At the same time, retail banking agents currently operate with fragmented data, limited context, and increasing regulatory pressure, leading to inconsistent decisions, missed vulnerability signals, and potential customer harm. This solution solves that problem by providing real-time, explainable decision support, enabling agents to make consistent, compliant, and proactive customer-centric decisions./…

In Common is an AI-powered workforce intelligence prototype that helps large organizations staff teams faster, more fairly, and with better evidence. It sits…

In large organizations, staffing often relies on incomplete profiles, keyword searches, and personal networks. That creates slow staffing cycles, missed opportunities, and unfair visibility for talent outside existing circles. In Common solves this by turning static workforce data into explainable, AI-driven talent intelligence that surfaces stronger matches, identifies skill gaps, and helps build teams based on capability, availability, and collaboration signals rather than proximity or guesswork./…

Our project combines an agent-driven development framework (AI-Led SDLC) with a plugin called LegacyBridge to enable interaction with legacy systems that lack…

Legacy systems are a major barrier to innovation across the tech industry. Many critical platforms lack APIs or modern integrations, making it difficult to access data, automate workflows, or build AI-powered solutions. Our project solves this by enabling agents to both understand and act within legacy systems, removing the dependency on APIs and overcoming the limitations of traditional RPA./…

Our project is an AI-powered travel insurance claim processing platform that automates the full claims journey from document intake to final decision. It…

What we are solving, is the slow, manual, and inconsistent process of handling insurance claims. Today, claims teams often spend days or weeks reviewing documents, checking policy terms, validating evidence, screening for fraud, and coordinating next steps. We tackled this problem by building an end-to-end workflow that cuts manual effort, accelerates decisions, and brings full visibility into the claims process./…

Coachdex is a team intelligence layer on top of Codex. It turns isolated Codex sessions into shared team intelligence and reusable skills by capturing…

AI coding tools are creating value, but most of that value is trapped inside individual, ephemeral sessions. Developers each discover their own prompts, workflows, and habits, but teams cannot easily see what is working, standardise it, or reuse it. Coachdex solves this by converting ad hoc AI-assisted work into repeatable execution, measurable insights, and reusable institutional knowledge./…

An AI-powered software engineering assurance tool that turns a public GitHub repository into a structured review in minutes. A user submits a repo URL and the…

Software assurance reviews are slow, expensive, and inconsistent because they depend on manual evidence gathering and senior specialist time. In our client’s current model, a single review can take around five days end-to-end, and involves multiple senior reviewers and can result in bias. Our project compresses that process into an automated workflow that applies the same assessment structure every time, surfaces evidence directly from the repository, and gives decision-makers a faster starting point for governance and delivery discussions./…

This project focuses on developing a Time and Attendance system that integrates alongside our existing payroll platform, bringing a critical function in-house…

This project addresses a direct and well-recognised business issue. As an organisation, we process approximately 2.5 million electronic payslips annually, yet Time and Attendance (T&A) is often handled through external systems. Clients have highlighted the inefficiencies of managing T&A separately from payroll, creating fragmentation in a process that should be tightly integrated. This separation not only impacts user experience but also represents a missed revenue opportunity, as we are not currently providing a fully end-to-end HRS solution despite already delivering the majority of it. A key challenge is that this cannot be approached as a “big bang” migration. Clients already use a variety of T&A systems, and forcing them to switch entirely would create friction and limit adoption. Therefore, flexibility is critical. Our approach is to build a centralised, extensible platform that can accept data from multiple sources. By supporting different input methods such as manual entry, third-party systems, and hardware-based solutions, we enable clients to integrate with our platform in a way that suits their existing processes. This ensures we remain adaptable as a business, while gradually bringing more capability in-house. More broadly, this highlights a gap in our current HRS offering. While we can deliver many payroll processes today, T&A and other HR process remains a key missing component. We believe agentic AI can play a role in accelerating the development of these additional HR capabilities, starting with Time and Attendance. Ultimately, this project responds directly to client feedback, solves a real operational problem, and creates a pathway to expand our HRS platform into a more complete, revenue-generating solution./…

SkillPilot is an AI-powered engineering learning platform that adapts to each engineer’s skill level, role, and growth goals. It helps in onboarding and…

Engineering growth in enterprises is still fragmented, reactive, and difficult to personalize at scale. Useful signals are spread across PRs, retrospectives, mentorship conversations, project reviews, documentation, and capability frameworks, but they are rarely connected into one adaptive system. As a result, engineers do not always know which skills to build next, managers repeat the same coaching manually, and onboarding new joiners takes longer than it should because critical guidance, context, and resources are scattered across people and tools. SkillPilot solves this by transforming real work signals into personalized learning paths that help engineers improve where it matters most for their role and level, while also accelerating onboarding by giving new joiners a clearer, context-aware path to ramp up faster. At the same time, it makes the rollout of tools like Codex more effective by embedding them into day-to-day growth, feedback, and delivery workflows instead of treating them as standalone tools that employees have to figure out on their own. Why we built this We built SkillPilot because the need for scalable, contextual learning is becoming urgent in fast-growing engineering organizations. Adding 10% more people to the team in a single week really put our onboarding and mentoring capacity to the test. The workload is tangible: senior engineers and managers spend significant time repeating guidance, pointing people to the right resources, and translating feedback into development actions. That onboarding challenge revealed a broader opportunity. The same fragmentation does not only affect new joiners, but engineers at every seniority level who are trying to grow in technical, delivery, collaboration, or leadership skills. SkillPilot was built to turn that manual, inconsistent process into an AI-native learning workflow that scales mentorship, shortens onboarding time for new joiners, and supports continuous development across the organization./…

Our project is an artifact and integration-driven modernization framework designed to transform legacy applications into modern architectures safely and…

Current agentic coding tools struggle with long-running legacy modernization: as context grows, they lose track of architecture, miss dependencies, and cannot reliably resume after interruptions. Codex Phoenix solves this by replacing fragile chat-based workflows with an artifact-driven, structured pipeline that preserves state, understands dependencies, and enables safe, incremental, and fully resumable modernization of large codebases./…

Our project aims to create a set of hierarchical skills for migrating legacy Python code bases using Codex and subagents. By having more modular skills we are…

Often there are projects that were created in the past, could still be useful, and would be more performant by running on a more modern stack. This still require human-in-the to keep the control over the process./…

Upload a proposal deck and walk away. A short while later, you'll have a shareable link to a fully deployed proof of concept on AWS - built to Artefact's…

Winning new work requires demos. Building demos requires engineers. And engineers are always underwater. Off-the-shelf tools like Replit and Lovable let non-technical users ship something fast - but the output is throwaway code that can't be handed to an engineering team. Coding agents like Codex produce genuinely high-quality output, but require technical knowledge to deploy. We close that gap. Our system handles the entire technical pipeline automatically: generating code, building containers, pushing to GitHub, and deploying to AWS - all triggered by a simple PowerPoint upload. Because we build with best practices (including SKILL.md files), the output isn't a prototype to be discarded - it's a foundation the tech team can actually build on. No spaghetti code, no rework, no bottleneck./…

Today, tools like Codex already let you split development into multiple worktrees per feature. But merging those worktrees is still a manual, slow process…

Parallel development exists, but integration is still manual and linear. Merging, testing, and validating features together is slow, error-prone, and happens too late so teams optimize in isolation instead of as a system./…

TalentLens is an AI-powered CV screening solution that transforms unstructured resumes into structured, comparable candidate profiles. It enables faster, more…

Recruiters often receive hundreds of CVs in different formats, with inconsistent wording and varying levels of detail. This makes early screening slow, repetitive, and subjective. TalentLens solves this by: - reducing the time spent manually interpreting CVs - making candidates more directly comparable across recruiters and roles - grounding skill assessments in actual evidence instead of self-reporting alone/…

Using Codex to prototype a Codex-powered solution focussed on data migrations, particularly around semantic reasoning over legacy databases

In large enterprise data migration exercises, business and domain knowledge around databases, especially poorly documented or old ones, tends to be locked behind clients. Discovery and analysis workshops are time consuming and cause programmes to drag on. Our project is a rapidly deployable prototype that showcases how Codex helps reduce friction and provide a user-friendly interface to expedite using client knowledge as part of the migration process./…

Our Project - Codex Morph is a Codex-powered legacy/POC discovery and transformation planning workflow that turns a codebase into a structured…

Both, Modernisation and MVP to production work often stalls before delivery begins because teams do not have a clear, shared view of what already exists. Legacy systems, internal tools, and early-stage prototypes are usually under-documented, inconsistently structured, and difficult to reason about at scale. Teams lose weeks reverse-engineering architecture, dependencies, risks, and migration options before they can even agree on a plan. This project removes that bottleneck. It uses Codex to analyse large codebases, maintain working context across multiple files and planning stages, and convert that analysis into a structured transformation blueprint. Instead of starting with scattered tribal knowledge and manual discovery, teams get an evidence-backed current state, target state, phased roadmap, risks, and next actions. For internal partner teams, that means faster discovery, clearer technical alignment, better handoffs, and a reusable accelerator for transformation engagements./…

Our project is Briefly.ai, a personalized news product for people who need to keep up with the fast-moving agentic AI ecosystem without drowning in noise. It…

Agentic AI news is fragmented, high-volume, and difficult to verify. People currently have to scan many sources to figure out what changed, what matters to their work, and whether a claim is trustworthy. Our project solves that by turning scattered updates into a concise, personalized, and source-aware briefing experience./…

Codex Compliance is a plugin that extends Codex into a compliance-aware coding agent for regulated industries. It scans codebases against frameworks like…

AI coding agents can generate code quickly, but regulated industries cannot safely adopt them because there is no reliable way to verify that the code is compliant with frameworks like HIPAA, GxP, or the EU AI Act. Our project solves this by automatically detecting, fixing, and generating evidence for compliance gaps directly in the coding workflow. Its using multiple levels of sub agents for identifying issues and fixing them./…

Codex Tree is a branch-aware environment for AI-assisted software development. It turns a normally linear Codex chat into a tree of connected conversations so…

Most AI coding tools force complex development work into one long linear conversation. That makes it hard to explore multiple approaches, separate independent tasks, preserve the right context for each thread of work, and safely manage code changes across experiments. As the conversation grows, useful context gets buried, unrelated ideas get mixed together, and it becomes difficult to return to earlier points or combine parallel work cleanly. In many current workflows, if a developer wants to split work into a new feature path, they often have to open a new session and repeat the original prompt and context again, which is slow, repetitive, and error-prone. Codex Tree solves this by giving AI conversations the same kind of branching structure that developers already use in version control. Users can fork work into focused branches without duplicating prompts, keep each branch tied to its own workspace and history, roll back safely, and merge results intentionally. If part of the chat stops being useful or reaches a dead end, users can roll back to an earlier point and create a new branch from there rather than restarting from scratch. It also becomes easy to test two different approaches in parallel by creating a branch for each option, exploring both independently, and then continuing with whichever approach works better. Compared with using the regular Codex app fork and worktree features directly, this project reduces manual session management, keeps the branch relationships visible instead of letting forks disappear into separate chats, preserves the exact filesystem snapshot associated with each branch point, and makes branch history easier to understand and revisit. It also gives users a visual map of their branches and chats, improving visibility into what has already been explored and how the work evolved over time. This creates a more natural way to plan, delegate, compare alternatives, and coordinate larger builds with Codex./…

A key advantage for regulated industries: the framework only optimizes the pipeline logic itself — no data ever leaves the client environment. This makes it…

Getting an pipeline to work is fast. Making it reliable, robust, and production-ready is slow — it requires repeated manual cycles of testing, tweaking, and re-evaluating. This framework hands that entire iteration process to Codex. It doesn't just assist with one change — it runs the full improve-evaluate cycle autonomously, addressing edge cases, inconsistencies, and failure modes that a developer would otherwise spend weeks hunting down manually./…

Loqui is an agentic interview platform for capturing human knowledge at scale. It helps teams turn a rough research brief into a deployable interview mission…

A huge amount of valuable knowledge inside organizations never makes it into systems or documentation. It lives in people’s heads, especially with experienced staff, specialists, consultants, and operators. When those people leave, retire, or are simply too busy to interview properly, that knowledge is lost. Existing options force a tradeoff: surveys scale but are shallow, while human interviews are rich but slow, expensive, and hard to synthesize. Loqui solves this by making qualitative interviews scalable, adaptive, and structured, so organizations can capture human insight faster without losing depth./…

We have built a product which will allow users of applications in the early stages of development to report bugs and issues they find with the system. An…

We aim to solve the problem of early stage products iteration lifecycle being streamlined and improved by optimising and automating the way bugs are reported and dealt with./…

A self-hostable M&A intelligence platform, allowing M&A analysts to perform their required initial due diligence and strategic fit assessment for potential…

M&A analysts usually spend a lot of manual effort in collecting information on potential target companies that may be interesting for deeper investigation. This means they can conduct a maximum of 10 analyses per week, if this were their only task. In addition, corporations are highly unwilling to share their sensitive company strategy information with SaaS providers. With the Slalom Germany M&A Research & Analysis platform, users can now run 1000s analyses per week, thus improving their ability to cover all potential targets, and filter out uninteresting candidates with much higher speed. In addition, the self-hostable nature ensures that secret and highly sensitive strategy documentation remains on the acquirer's servers./…

This project reimagines what it feels like to explore a city on foot. Instead of opening a map, searching for landmarks, and piecing together your own route…

Most city exploration tools are static, generic, and require users to manually search, read, and plan. Our project makes urban discovery feel effortless and immersive by generating a personalized tour around wherever the user actually is, then guiding them with audio and map-based interaction in real time. It removes the friction between “I want to explore” and “I know exactly where to go and what to listen to/…

CXecute accelerates contact center agentification by turning customer support transcripts and enterprise API specs into a deployment-ready Google Gemini…

The biggest barrier to enterprise customer service AI is not the model, but the delivery workflow before deployment. Teams still spend months discovering intents, mapping APIs, shaping data, configuring platforms, and validating outputs. CXecute automates that workflow, reducing time-to-deployment and making agent delivery faster, more repeatable, and less dependent on manual coordination./…

SpringGuard is an agent-native SDLC workflow for reducing a bounded static-analysis backlog in Spring Boot repositories. It uses a real Java codebase, a…

Teams already have quality signals, but those signals are usually disconnected from execution. SonarQube, Checkstyle, and SpotBugs can identify the work, yet engineers still have to manually clear static-analysis backlog items one by one, and unconstrained agents can drift beyond the intended scope. SpringGuard solves that by turning quality tooling into a guarded remediation loop: Codex fixes a curated issue set inside repo boundaries, receives immediate hook feedback after edits, and uses SonarQube as the checkpoint and review surface while durable SDLC artifacts keep the work traceable./…

Domino is a dependency-upgrade impact analyzer for Python codebases. Given a package and a version change, it builds a static dependency graph across the…

Dependency upgrades are risky because developers usually do not know what will break until after they make the change. Reading changelogs and grepping a codebase is slow, incomplete, and hard to trust in larger systems. Domino solves this by showing exactly where a changed or removed API is used, what internal code depends on it, and how safe the upgrade is likely to be before the developer merges anything./…

One command palette for every internal tool. Built for the McKinsey intranet, this product helps teams navigate fragmented internal and proprietary products…

Current state Fragmented intranet products and bookmarked URLs to reach the right destination GUI-heavy workflows that force too many clicks through menus and forms Tribal knowledge needed to discover the right McKinsey tool or workflow/…

Agentic Data Migration Engine is a Codex-powered demo that turns a legacy user-domain schema into an inspectable migration specification and deterministic…

Large-scale data migration projects are still slow, expert-heavy, and difficult to govern because teams must manually reverse-engineer schemas, reason through ambiguous mappings, document decisions, and translate that work into executable migration artifacts. This project brings the power of agent-driven data migration to that process: it accelerates schema understanding, semantic interpretation, mapping design, and SQL generation, while keeping human approval, auditability, and delivery control in place. The result is faster migration analysis, quicker iteration cycles, and more trustworthy handoff artifacts for delivery teams./…

Touchless Control Assistant is a hands-free presentation and meeting controller powered by gestures, voice, and presence awareness. It lets a user move…

The project solves the problem that meetings, demos, and accessibility-sensitive workflows still depend too heavily on keyboard and mouse interaction, even when hands-free control would be faster, more inclusive, and more practical. It gives users a touchless way to control presentation and meeting actions using voice, hand gestures, and presence awareness through one reusable multimodal command system./…

A self-healing PR Guardian

Helping use sub-agents to provide better PR feedback. Alas the working demo was not possible but we learned a lot about EU data residency vs GitHub Action running in the US :D/…

Context-aware discovery and recommendation tool that turns natural-language data requests into actionable guidance for data teams. It analyzes an…

Data teams often waste time duplicating work because existing data assets are difficult to discover across systems, teams, and documentation. This leads to redundant pipelines, inconsistent implementation decisions, and slower delivery of new data use cases. This tool solves this by helping teams quickly understand what already exists, what can be reused, and where new work is actually needed./…
