A boutique engineering agency
We take on difficult problems with measurable outcomes. We build what is needed, put it live, and keep it running.

FLORO STUDIO
Cloud spend that keeps rising. AI that must work with confidential client data. Reconciliation that takes over the same week every month.
These problems sit across infrastructure, data, security and operations. They need a system designed around the real constraint, tested against real conditions and measured by the outcome it produces.
We build that system, put it live and keep it running. Responsibility stays with Floro.
THE SOLUTION
A clear outcome. A working system.
Every piece of work starts with a measurable result. We agree what success means, put the system into operation, and keep it running after it goes live.
01
Define the outcome
We agree the result, how it will be measured, and whether the numbers justify the work.
02
Put it into operation
Tested against real data, then hosted by Floro or deployed within your own environment.
03
Keep it running
After go-live, Floro will continue to monitor, support and maintain the system. To prevent outcome erosion over time.
Area of practice. Problems.
We apply engineering where the outcome can be measured and the result needs to hold up in practice.
01
Legal and compliance
AI that can work with privileged or confidential material while maintaining a hard boundary between the model and the client data it touches. Controlled and auditable from end to end.
02
Cloud and infrastructure cost
Finding and removing waste from cloud spend without compromising uptime. Where savings can erode over time, continued oversight helps protect the result.
03
Finance and operations
Reconciliation, reporting and recurring operational work that consumes a finance team’s month. Accurate, auditable and taken off their desk.
04
Something else entirely
A specific, measurable problem that does not fit neatly into an existing category. We look at the outcome, the constraints and whether there is a sound engineering case.
OUR PRINCIPLES
Every decision in the platform is shaped by a single goal. We start with the problem, the constraint and the result that matters. Everything else follows from that.
Measured from the start
Success is agreed, along with the number that will show whether it has been achieved.
Tested in real conditions
The work is tested against real data and the environment in which it will operate.
The right engineering
We use what the problem requires. Infrastructure, data, security and software are means to an outcome, not the starting point.
Results that hold
Some outcomes can erode over time. Where continued oversight protects the result, Floro can monitor and maintain it after go-live.
£60,000 removed from a national retailer’s monthly cloud bill.
Cloud spend had grown quietly over time. Waste had accumulated across the environment, but nobody could point to why the bill was what it was.
Before
The bill had become accepted as a cost of running the estate. There was no single obvious cause, only waste that had built up gradually.
Diagnosis
Floro identified where the unnecessary spend was coming from and what could be changed safely.
No production downtime
The waste was removed while the production environment remained live. Nothing was taken down to achieve the saving.
The result continues
The monthly bill is lower, and the saving continues every month the system keeps running.
Every difficult problem has a way forward.
