Own your
innovation

We build corporate innovation functions from the inside out

What we do

AlphaBase is an innovation in-housing partner. We help companies build or extend their internal innovation capabilities, eliminating the need for outside agencies by driving growth from inside your walls.

Our expertise is twofold. First, we work with people to identify and pursue the right approach to innovation in your business. Sometimes we create a team and operating model from scratch; other times we help an existing team add new tools and skills.

Second, we work with artificial intelligence to supercharge the performance of in-house teams. Our proprietary platform, ABOS, lets us quickly build complex AI processes to help our partners move faster and do more.

Innovate with people

We know how hard it is to make in-house innovation successful. We take an extreme hands-on approach, working full-time in your company to help you create a new team or extend an existing one. We build, sweat, pivot and grow with you. Our end result is a rigorous, sustainable new capability powered by your own people.

Innovate with AI

Designed for business innovators, our proprietary platform (ABOS) lets users create and automate highly complex AI workflows—no coding needed. With ABOS, you can build any process you want, tap any or all the LLMs at once, and get dozens of custom AI agents working together to produce exactly what you need.

Devise a strategy

We help you figure out how your innovation capability should work. If you have a team already, we help you explore new and/or different things you could do.

Test and learn

We run projects with you during pilot phases, when we’re still assessing if a new approach makes sense. We can be a whole team or part of one.

Marshal support

We help embed innovation management practices in your company, ensuring you have alignment, involvement and oversight from the right people.

Build up your toolkit

We help you develop new methodologies, toolkits and techniques to gain traction and make faster progress. We build custom frameworks for you.

Upskill or onboard

We map skills needed and skills available for your unique innovation challenges. We help you plug any gaps you feel are missing.

Seamless handover

We train your team to run new capabilities with confidence. We support them as shadow partners while they put their training into action.

Innovate with AI

Custom workflows

Build completely custom processes with our drag-and-drop workflow builder, and deploy them at the push of a button. Run your steps behind the scenes, or make them interactive.

Infinite complexity

Got a 200-step process that needs 50 different AI agents to co-create a 40-page document? No problem. ABOS lets you achieve vast complexity without a line of code.

Build with any LLM

There's more out there than ChatGPT. Choose from any of the major LLMs for every step: mix and match across your flow, or get different models to compete or collaborate.

Precision control

Design as many AI agents as you need and train each of them to perform their role perfectly. If in doubt, add AI 'supervisors' to keep them on track.

Broad resource retrieval

Integrate your company’s insights, real-time online content—even outputs from other workflows. ABOS can pull data from anywhere (but never shares yours, of course).

Toolkits for anyone

All workflows include end-user interfaces with shareable links, so you can create custom AI toolkits for other teams too.

How we do it

We usually co-create our briefs with clients: they come to us because something about innovation in their company isn’t working, and quick fixes aren’t helping. Once we’ve agreed on a goal, it’s a question of hitting four milestones.

1. Make the case

We help you win support to do something new, by running pilot projects with you that show what you could achieve.

2. Make it work

We build your new capability together, trying things out and refining our approach until we’re happy with the results.

3. Make it stick

We work with you to embed your new capability in the business, ensuring it’s credible and impactful to the people you need to impress.

4. Make it yours

We help you recruit and/or train your team to own your capability. When you’re ready, we show ourselves out.

How we work

Building a new offer requires deep, day-to-day knowledge of your business. To us, it means setting our commitment level to "maximum."

Full time

We typically work full-time for one client at a time. As long as our engagement lasts, you’re our focus: all day, every day, we’re yours to command.

From scratch

Every company is unique, and so is every project we do. We’ll never sell you generic answers—our work is complex, thorough, and completely bespoke.

Until it's done

We believe in delivering on our promises. With us, there’s no such thing as “out of scope”: we’ll do whatever’s needed to help you succeed.

Who we are

We are full-time experimenters who like building things with and for real people. We strive to make a difference, but along the way we also make a lot of jokes.
