All 8 carry a source URL on file. ## Curator assessment Reviewed 2026-09-07 by Gabor Kiss against published evidence. The Clinical Trial Risk Tool is the strongest evidence a shop this size can offer: commissioned by the Gates Foundation, built over more than a year as an ensemble of machine-learning and rule-based models that extract sample size, phase, effect size and statistical-analysis-plan presence from protocols running to 200 pages, deployed publicly, open-sourced under MIT, and written up in Gates Open Research with a DOI. The consulting record is public-sector and pharma—the Information Commissioner's Office email classifier trained inside an isolated environment on data that could not be retained, Boehringer Ingelheim's factory error-report clustering, Skills Development Scotland's causal analysis using DoWhy and instrumental variables, plus the WHO and the Office of Rail and Road. What the cases do not carry is outcome numbers: the Skills Development Scotland write-up concludes that interventions appeared to be well-targeted, which is a research finding rather than a delivered result. At €175-260 an hour this is the most expensive listing in London, so the question is what a named principal's time buys that a larger team's does not. ### Key strengths - The Clinical Trial Risk Tool is peer-reviewed (Gates Open Res 2023, doi:10.12688/gatesopenres.14416.1), publicly deployed and MIT-licensed - Sensitive-data constraints are handled explicitly—the ICO model was trained inside an isolated environment with no training data retained - The client list is institutional and verifiable: Gates Foundation, WHO, NHS, ICO, Boehringer Ingelheim, Wellcome Trust ### Good to know - No case study publishes an outcome number—ask what changed for the client after delivery - At €175-260/hr against a 2-9 headcount, ask who does the work and what happens when they are unavailable - The published strength is NLP and research-grade analysis—ask for evidence before commissioning a production platform ## Compared head-to-head - Fast Data Science vs Twistag: https://www.aiagencies.eu/compare/fast-data-science-vs-twistag - Fast Data Science vs Vstorm: https://www.aiagencies.eu/compare/fast-data-science-vs-vstorm --- Source: AIAgencies.eu — the curated register of European AI agencies.
