We design and build safe AI and software for real-world, high-risk environments. Our clients range from healthcare providers, local authorities, startups, and charities — organisations focused on solving complex, real-world problems.
Our services include custom AI development, MVP development, and app development. We support clients from early concepts through to delivery and scale.
2025 has been a strong year for Japeto, marked by continued growth and the start of several exciting new partnerships. We’ve continued to develop and enhance Japeto Chat, our flagship product. Japeto Chat is a custom chatbot development and analytics platform.
In collaboration with Adiuvo Engineering, Japeto secured funding from the European Space Agency to research and develop an AI solution aimed at improving complex engineering and development processes and bridge the gap between natural language requirements and the codebase.
Alongside this work, we’ve partnered with a range of innovative start-ups, supporting them to design and build robust technology stacks. Recent projects include digital tools to support caregivers of autistic children, improved recycling and sustainability solutions, and a new social app focused on democratising access to football.
We are excited to keep improving and developing our Japeto Chat platform. Working with an Innovate UK Growth Advisor, this year Japeto will be fundraising for the next stage of our growth – including growing our team and expanding our market to the US and Europe.
There are no shortage of resources to learn tech and coding for young women looking to build a career in tech, but it is harder to find communities and networks that are supportive and useful. If I were to give any advice, it would be to actively search this communities and contribute and support when you find them. Wherever you can’t find a community, build one!
