# AI Integration Services UK > UK AI integration services: add AI to the products and systems you already run, with model selection, evals, cost tracking and a gradual rollout you control. Source: https://pixelhop.io/services/ai-integration/ --- AI integration services · UK # AI integration services for UK businesses AI integrations that just fit. AI integration services from Newquay, Cornwall, for UK product and operations teams. We wire AI into the products and systems you already run, without rewrites or greenfield detours. [Talk to us](https://pixelhop.io/contact/) What you get ## Everything an integration needs to actually land. Bolting a model onto an existing system is the easy 20%. The rest is choosing the right one, evaluating it against your real data, rolling it out without breaking trust, and keeping it healthy as the model landscape shifts. Here's what we deliver. 01 ### AI inside what you already run The integration lives inside your existing product or system rather than in a sidecar service or standalone tool, sharing the same auth, database, design language, and ops. The new behaviour shows up where users or your team already work. 02 ### Model and API selection, justified We pick the model and provider that fit the job (Claude, GPT, Gemini, open-source, hosted or self-served) and write down why. So when costs shift or a better option lands, you can swap with confidence instead of starting over. 03 ### Evals tuned to your domain An evaluation harness built on your real data and edge cases rather than a generic benchmark, so you can measure whether a prompt change, model swap, or retrieval tweak makes things better for your users. 04 ### Observability and cost tracking Per-feature dashboards for latency, token spend, error rates, and quality signals. Wired into the tools you already use so the AI feature doesn't become the one part of the product nobody can see. 05 ### Gradual rollout with a kill switch Feature flags, percentage rollouts, allow-lists, and a one-click off switch. The integration ships behind controls so you can expand confidently and pull it back instantly if something goes sideways. 06 ### Ongoing tuning post-launch Models change, prompts drift, your data evolves. We stay involved after launch, reviewing prompts, re-running evals, and swapping models when a better fit appears, so the integration stays sharp instead of slowly rotting. #### 01: Discovery Refine your ideas and plan what will be launched in 6 weeks. #### 02: Kick-off We get cracking.

Use cases ## AI integrations we build. - 01 ### Copilots inside your existing product AI assistants that live inside the product your users already log into, aware of the screen they're on, the data they can see, and the actions they're allowed to take. If the copilot needs to take actions as well as answer, see [AI agent development](https://pixelhop.io/services/ai-agents/). - 02 ### Image intelligence and classification Pull useful information out of the images, scans, photos, and screenshots your business already collects. Classify, tag, extract text, detect anomalies, route to the right place. Built into your existing storage and workflow. - 03 ### Voice and text-to-speech Add natural voice generation, real-time transcription, or automated phone calls to your stack. Connected to your CRM, calendar, or ticketing so the audio side talks to the rest of your systems. - 04 ### Cameras and real-world device integration Connect AI to the physical world. Object detection on a camera feed, monitoring on a production line, smart capture from a scanner, building access driven by a video stream. - 05 ### Stitching business systems together Add intelligence to the data flowing between your tools. Bridge formats, infer missing fields, deduplicate records, and route messages where rules-based logic couldn't, so a person no longer has to read everything first. For scheduled pipelines that run on their own, see [AI automation](https://pixelhop.io/services/ai-automation/). - [Got something different?](https://pixelhop.io/contact/): + Tell us about your use case.

That's a small senior team designing, building and launching one clear outcome. Most integrations fit in one cycle; bigger products run over two or three. Smaller one-off jobs are quoted individually at our day rate of £650 + VAT, even if it's only a couple of days' work. Not sure what you need yet? We start with a [discovery week](https://pixelhop.io/project-discovery/) (£3,250 + VAT) and finish it with a fixed-price proposal for the build. After launch, many of our clients stay with us on a monthly retainer for support and improvements. Model, API and hosting costs are separate, and you can see them on the cost dashboard from day one.

[Start a project](https://pixelhop.io/project-discovery/) FAQs ## AI integration FAQs. How long does an AI integration take? Most integrations fit in one six-week cycle, shipped behind a feature flag so you can roll out gradually. Smaller ones, like adding a single model call to an existing feature, can take a few days at our day rate. We scope it properly at the start. Which stacks and frameworks do you work with? We pick the stack that fits the specific use case, not the framework we like best this quarter. The starting point is what you already use and what your team will maintain after we hand off. From there we lean on the tooling, libraries, and patterns we've battle-tested on our own products and previous client projects, so you're not the first project to ship a given approach. How do you handle data privacy and model providers? We scope exactly what data leaves your systems and which provider sees it. Options range from zero-retention API agreements with providers like Anthropic and OpenAI, through to self-hosted open models when data can't leave your environment. We document the data flow before any integration ships. How do you evaluate whether the integration is actually good? Where it makes sense, we build an evaluation harness on your real data: input examples, expected behaviour, and edge cases. Changes to prompts, models, or retrieval get measured against the work rather than vibes. Some integrations are simple enough to test by hand and don't need the overhead, so we work out the right approach with you up front. What about maintenance once the model landscape shifts? Models change every few months. We offer ongoing engagements that cover prompt tuning, eval refreshes, model swaps when a better fit appears, and cost optimisation as pricing moves. The integration stays current instead of becoming the part of the codebase nobody wants to touch. When shouldn't we add AI to our product? If users don't have a problem the AI would solve, or the data it needs isn't there yet, adding it creates cost without value. We'll check both before recommending a build. How much does it cost? Most projects fit in one six-week cycle at £34,000 + VAT. Smaller jobs are quoted at our day rate of £650 + VAT, and a discovery week is £3,250 + VAT. See [What it costs](#what-it-costs) for the detail. Do you work with businesses outside Cornwall? Yes. We're based in Newquay, and most of our clients are elsewhere in the UK. We work remotely, with the kick-off, week-three check-in and launch on video calls. How do you handle our data? We're UK GDPR compliant. At the start of a project we agree what personal data the work needs, where it's stored and who can access it, and we build to that. Now booking ## Got something that could use a brain transplant?
