Find UK AI agencies you can actually trust

Illustrative example. Not a real agency.

Anyone can call themselves an AI agency

There's no register of AI agencies and no shared standard. Some are excellent. Others are a website, a template and a confident sales call. From the outside, they look the same.

  • Case studies you can't check

    Client logos without context, results without numbers, and no way to ask the client whether it actually went well.

  • Quality you only see after you've paid

    How an agency tests, monitors and hands over its work usually becomes clear only when something breaks, or when you try to move to another supplier.

  • Compliance taken on trust

    Is the company active? Registered with the ICO? Cyber Essentials certified? The answers are public, but few buyers have time to look.

So buyers end up choosing on gut feel and slide decks. We think that should change.

What we verify

Every agency is checked the same way, against evidence rather than claims. Agencies can't pay to skip a step.

Legitimacy

Is this a real, compliant UK business?

  • Companies House records: an active company, years trading and accounts filed on time
  • Registered with the ICO for data protection
  • VAT number validated
  • Recognised certifications such as Cyber Essentials and ISO 27001

Track record

Have they delivered for real clients?

  • Projects and results confirmed directly by past clients. We email the client, so no screenshots or logos taken on trust
  • Clients answer a two-minute form: was it delivered, roughly how big was it, would they recommend it
  • Clients can stay anonymous, for example "Verified project, legal sector, £10–25k"

Delivery standards

Will their work hold up once it’s in your business?

  • How the agency tests its work before it goes live
  • How it monitors that work once it's live
  • How it protects your data
  • How it hands over, so you're never locked in
  • Assessed with evidence against the aiagencies.co.uk Delivery Standard

Three badge levels

Each level builds on the one before. Badges can be lost as well as earned.

  1. Verified

    Passes our independent legitimacy checks.

  2. Trusted

    Verified, plus at least two client-confirmed projects.

  3. Assured

    Trusted, plus meets the aiagencies.co.uk Delivery Standard and holds professional indemnity insurance.

Rankings are based on verification, never on payment. Any sponsored placement will be clearly labelled.

For agencies: become a founding agency

If your work stands up to scrutiny, verification is how you prove it. Founding agencies get a head start when profiles open.

  • Your profile, ready before launch

    We'll prepare your profile and run the automated checks early, so you're listed from day one.

  • Founding-member pricing, locked in

    Paid features will come at a founding-member price that stays fixed for as long as you remain a member.

  • First access to the aiagencies.co.uk Delivery Standard assessment

    Be among the first assessed against the aiagencies.co.uk Delivery Standard, and show clients exactly how you deliver.

Questions

What is aiagencies.co.uk?

A database of UK AI agencies where every listing is independently verified. Businesses use it to find agencies they can trust. Agencies use it to prove they're the real thing.

How does verification work?

We check three things: legitimacy, track record and delivery standards. Legitimacy is checked against public records (Companies House, the ICO register, VAT validation and recognised certifications), and track record through projects and results confirmed directly by past clients, who can stay anonymous. For delivery, we assess evidence of how an agency tests its work, monitors it once it’s live, protects your data and hands over without locking you in, against the aiagencies.co.uk Delivery Standard.

Badges reflect how far an agency has gone through those checks, and can be removed if the evidence changes.

Is it free?

For businesses, yes: searching the directory will be free. For agencies, a basic profile and the automated checks will be free. Some features, such as the aiagencies.co.uk Delivery Standard assessment, will be paid, and founding agencies get founding-member pricing locked in.

We'll publish prices before anyone is asked to pay.

When does it launch?

We're building it now. Agency profiles open shortly, ahead of the public launch. We'd rather not promise a date we can't keep.

Can agencies pay to rank higher?

No. Organic rankings come from verification. If we ever sell sponsored placements, they will be clearly labelled as sponsored and kept separate from the rankings.

Do you collect any personal data?

No. This site has no sign-up forms or accounts and sets no tracking cookies. We count visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless and doesn't identify you.

How we stay independent

  • Rankings can't be bought

    Sponsored placements are always clearly labelled and never affect an agency's badge or organic ranking.

  • Our criteria are public

    Every check behind each badge is published, so agencies and buyers know exactly what's assessed.

  • Evidence, not claims

    Badges are awarded on verified records, client confirmations and documents — not on what agencies say about themselves.

  • Badges can be lost

    If checks lapse or we receive verified complaints, the badge is removed.
