STARMINES
Services / Capabilities

Five disciplines. One standard of proof.

We work where AI is hardest to get right: regulated, scientific and security-sensitive environments. Every engagement is run by the people who build it — no handoffs to a delivery team that doesn't exist.

01

Applied AI

PyTorch vLLM LangGraph DSPy

We design LLM systems that do real work — agents, copilots and automations wired into your tools, your data and your guardrails. Built to be measured, not demoed.

✦Agent & workflow design
✦Model selection & fine-tuning
✦Eval harnesses & observability
✦Human-in-the-loop guardrails
02

Retrieval / RAG

pgvector Qdrant GraphRAG BM25

Grounded, citable answers over your private corpus. We engineer retrieval that earns trust — hybrid search, re-ranking and evaluation, not vector-search roulette.

✦Hybrid & graph retrieval
✦Chunking & embedding strategy
✦Re-ranking & citation
✦Retrieval evaluation
03

Knowledge Graphs

Neo4j RDF / SPARQL GraphRAG

Ontologies and graphs that let your data reason about itself — the connective tissue beneath trustworthy AI and analytics in complex domains.

✦Ontology & schema design
✦Entity resolution
✦Graph + vector fusion
✦Reasoning & inference
04

Cyber Security

SAST / DAST IAM Zero-trust

Security engineered for sensitive, regulated and scientific systems — from threat modelling to red-teaming the AI itself before anyone else does.

✦Threat modelling
✦Secure data pipelines
✦LLM red-teaming
✦SOC 2 / ISO 27001 alignment
05

Data Platforms

Databricks Snowflake dbt Airflow

Lakehouse, pipelines and governance built to scale, to audit, and to outlive the hype cycle — the foundation everything else is mined from.

✦Lakehouse architecture
✦Pipelines & orchestration
✦Lineage & governance
✦Access control
[ How we work ]

From raw seam to refined system.

01

Assay

We diagnose before we dig. A short, sharp engagement to map the real problem, the data, the risks and whether it's even worth building.

02

Core sample

A working prototype against your real data — proof, not slideware. You see the seam before you commit to the mine.

03

Extract

We build the production system: evaluated, observable, secured and documented. The people who designed it write the code.

04

Refine

Hardening, handover and enablement. We leave your team able to run, extend and trust what we built — not dependent on us.

Tell us what's stuck.

A model that won't ship. A corpus you can't trust. A graph nobody can read. That's our territory.
