Our story
Weird Fishes Network brings together a team of forty across London and Manchester. We build practical machine-learning systems that help organisations make better decisions.
Weird Fishes Network builds machine learning systems for retailers, banks, insurers, hospitals, utilities and more. We bring data, technology and domain expertise together to help teams make confident decisions.
Retail and banking were our largest practices, but some of our most interesting problems came from water networks, hospital wards and telematics boxes. Every engagement started with one question: what decision will this model change?
Work across eight sectors and a wide range of real-world decisions.
Explore selected engagements to see the challenge, the data, the modelling approach and what changed for each client.
Case studies are anonymised and representative of engagement types; client identities are withheld.
Alongside consulting, we build software that turns repeated, complex work into practical tools for teams.
Our projects follow a clear path from raw data to a monitored model in production. The pipeline below brings together the practices we use across engagements.
Two weeks with the people who would use the model. We mapped the decision, the data and the cost of being wrong.
Six to eight weeks on historical data, with a backtest the client's own analysts could rerun.
Pipelines, APIs and dashboards built into the client's stack, with alerts on drift and data quality.
Documentation, training and paired support until the internal team owned the model end to end.
