Putting intelligence at the heart of every business decision.

AI Transition Partnerships for Scottish SMEs

Your strategic partner for turning AI potential into measurable business performance for mid-sized organisations in Glasgow, Edinburgh & Central Scotland.

The AI Challenge for Scottish Businesses

75% of Scottish SMEs haven't started their AI journey. Of those who have, 80% of projects fail - double the normal software failure rate. Leaders feel urgency to adopt AI but lack the capacity or expertise to deliver change.

Grapeworks is Scotland's boutique AI transformation consultancy built specifically for small and midsize businesses. We blend strategic expertise, hands-on execution, and ongoing coaching to deliver rapid wins and long-term value.
