About IKNOW

We build it ourselves and grow it as a business.

IKNOW is an infrastructure studio for AI-native product development and the social implementation of advanced technology.

Business and product support, fees

Drawing on experience building and operating our own products, we help clients define their challenges, design solutions, and put them into practice.

Our consulting work has primarily been with companies developing consumer-facing products and services, helping them shape product strategy, UI/UX and development plans. We understand the cultures and decision-making processes of startups and publicly listed companies, and tailor our approach to each team. Our current focus is our own products; consulting availability, timing and scope are agreed individually.

AI product development & UX

We design products and user experiences around the capabilities of AI. Prototypes turn ideas into clear, usable experiences that help people make decisions and take action.

EDIT

Data collection, integration & infrastructure

We collect, standardize, and deduplicate data so it can support analysis and services, drawing on our work on POP STATS and EDIT HOUSE.
