AI Products & Consulting — Melbourne

We build AI.
We tear it apart.

Gamu ships agentic systems of its own — and advises SMEs and enterprises on the architecture, security and model choices behind theirs. From your first model choice to a secured agent fleet in production.

01 — Capabilities

What we do

Four practices, one discipline. We put them through our own products before they reach a client engagement — which is why the advice holds up in production.

001

Agentic Workflows & Engineering

Multi-step agents that do real work — wired into your tools and data. Architecture chosen deliberately: graphs where you need control, loops where you need latitude. Evals and guardrails that hold under load, and token budgets that don't surprise you at month end.

Graphs vs loops Tools & skills Evals & guardrails Token & cost optimisation
002

AI Security & Governance

Red-teaming, threat modelling and governance for LLM and agent systems. Prompt injection, data exfiltration and access control — found and closed before they ship. Including the hard case: agents that run where the data isn't allowed to leave.

Red-teaming Threat modelling Data boundaries On-prem & hybrid
003

Advisory & Model Selection

Which model, running where, at what cost and what risk — answered from production experience rather than benchmark tables. Plus current best practice in agentic engineering for teams building their own, across AWS, GCP and Azure.

004

Custom Software Development

The web apps, APIs, mobile and cloud systems your business actually runs on — built with modern tooling, integrated cleanly, and engineered to last. The same engineering discipline, whether or not there is a model in the stack.

Web apps & APIs Mobile Cloud & integrations
For acquirers & investors

Technical due diligence for M&A and investment — two decades of it across the APAC tech sector, including Fillr → Rakuten and Tesserent → Thales.

02 — What we build

We ship our own products, not just decks.

Two products in active development. They are where the practices above get tested — at our own cost, before they reach a client engagement.

Enterprise

AI exposure & ROI mapping

Where AI can plausibly augment the work an organisation already does — scored role by role against labour-economics data rather than guesswork. Built around a hand-labelled evaluation harness, because a number you cannot measure is not worth reporting.

Consumer

AI for everyday convenience

Mobile products that use AI where it genuinely removes effort, rather than bolting a chat box onto an app. Australian market first.

03 — Track record

Twenty years of the infrastructure agentic AI now runs on.

Networks, filtering, proxies and security at scale — long before anyone called it AI infrastructure. It is why on-prem and hybrid deployment is not new ground for us: the data-boundary problem is the one we have been solving all along.

Defense & Technology

Thales Australia

Due-diligence support and advice ahead of Thales' strategic acquisition of Tesserent.

05 — Ways to start

Start small. Scope is fixed before we begin.

Most engagements begin with one of the first two. You get a deliverable either way — no open-ended discovery, no surprise invoice.

AI Readiness Assessment

For teams choosing their first model, or unsure the one they picked is still right.

  • Model selection across frontier and open-weight options
  • Where inference should run — cloud, hybrid or on-prem
  • Realistic cost and token modelling
  • Written recommendation with a sequenced next step

Agent Security Review

For teams with an agent built, or close to it, that has to survive contact with real data.

  • Red-team against prompt injection and data exfiltration
  • Threat model of tools, permissions and data boundaries
  • Access control and egress review
  • Prioritised remediation plan your engineers can action

Ongoing

Design & Build

For teams who want systems and applications designed, built and supported — AI work, conventional software, or both.

  • Architecture and design
  • Build alongside your engineers, not instead of them
  • Security, evals and cost controls from day one
  • Documented handover, or ongoing support
