About PGN Limited

Independent AI Testing
for the UK's
Most Demanding Sectors

We work across regulated and high-stakes environments — applying the same disciplined, repeatable approach whether you’re deploying customer support copilots, internal assistants, or agentic workflows connected to production systems.

We test AI across verticals — financial services, healthcare, legal, retail, and public sector — applying the same disciplined, evidence-based methodology to every engagement, regardless of sector or model.

Why PGN
Exists

AI testing is not a checkbox. It is the discipline that makes the difference between an AI system that works in production and one that quietly fails — or visibly fails at exactly the wrong moment.

We built PGN Limited to provide UK organisations with the kind of independent, technically credible AI testing that the stakes demand.

The Problem We Solve
Large language models fail in ways that traditional QA cannot detect. They are non-deterministic, context-sensitive, and vulnerable to adversarial inputs. An LLM that passes functional testing can still hallucinate under load, collapse under adversarial pressure, or produce inconsistent outputs that create liability. Standard testing teams and standard testing tools are not built for this.
Our Founding Principle
Every organisation deploying AI in a context where failures have real consequences — financial, clinical, legal, reputational — deserves access to testing that is genuinely independent, technically rigorous, and built around their specific risk profile. Not a US framework bolted onto a UK context. Not a compliance tick-box. Real testing, real findings, real evidence.
What Makes Us Different
We work exclusively on AI testing. Every methodology, tool, and test suite we build is designed around the unique challenges of LLM deployments. We do not offer cloud migration, data strategy, or digital transformation consulting. We test AI — and we do it with a depth of specialisation that broad-scope consultancies cannot match.
Knowledge Transfer First
Every engagement ends with a CI/CD-ready test suite, full documentation, and a knowledge transfer session for your team. We build capability in your organisation, not dependency on ours. You will own the testing infrastructure entirely after we leave.
AI Verticals

Testing Across Every
AI Deployment Context

PGN Limited provides specialist AI testing across the full range of UK industry verticals — each with its own risk profile, accountability expectations, and failure modes.

🏦

Financial Services & Fintech

From wealth management and capital markets to retail banking and payments — LLMs in financial services carry high regulatory accountability and low tolerance for hallucination. We test disclosure tools, advisory chatbots, fraud detection assistants, and automated reporting systems against the expectations of UK financial regulatory institutions.

🏥

Healthcare & Life Sciences

Clinical decision support, patient triage assistants, administrative AI, and medical information tools — healthcare LLMs face unique performance and safety requirements. We test under realistic clinical load profiles, validate against sector-specific accuracy thresholds, and produce evidence aligned to the expectations of UK healthcare regulatory institutions.

Legal & Professional Services

Contract review, legal research, client advisory, and document automation — legal LLMs require consistent, jurisdiction-aware outputs. We red-team against clause variations, jurisdiction-specific phrasing, and adversarial inputs that expose inconsistency, producing test suites aligned to the accountability standards expected by UK legal regulatory institutions.

Retail & E-Commerce

Customer service assistants, product recommendation engines, and personalisation tools — retail LLMs face peak load events and adversarial users at scale. We stress-test under Black Friday-level load profiles, probe for prompt injection and output manipulation vulnerabilities, and validate RAG pipeline accuracy for product and policy content.

Government & Public Sector

Citizen-facing services, internal knowledge tools, and policy assistance — public sector AI operates under high transparency and accountability obligations. We test against accessibility requirements, probe for bias across demographic characteristics, and produce evidence packs aligned to the expectations of UK public sector regulatory institutions.

Enterprise & Technology

Internal productivity tools, developer assistants, knowledge management systems, and AI-powered SaaS products — enterprise LLMs need robust evaluation frameworks that scale with product releases. We design CI/CD-integrated evaluation pipelines and provide ongoing regression testing as models and prompts evolve.

Our Approach

How We Think
About Testing

Four principles that underpin every PGN Limited engagement — from a two-week performance test to a six-week comprehensive assurance programme.

01 — Independence

External, Unbiased Validation

Internal teams validate that systems do what they were designed to do. We validate that systems do not do what they should not — under real-world conditions, adversarial inputs, and unexpected load patterns that internal testing rarely covers. We operate at arm's length from the engineering teams that built the system.

02 — Specificity

Sector-Calibrated, Not Generic

A 94% hallucination-free rate is excellent for a consumer chatbot and potentially inadequate for a clinical triage tool. Our test suites are calibrated around the actual risk tolerance of your sector and deployment — not generic benchmarks lifted from academic papers or US industry standards.

03 — Evidence

Audit-Ready, Every Time

Every engagement produces structured, written evidence — not slide decks. Test logs, findings reports, severity ratings, remediation guidance, and CI/CD-ready regression suites. The evidence we produce is designed to answer the questions that UK regulatory institutions and internal auditors will ask.

04 — Transfer

Built to Be Owned by You

Testing that requires our continued involvement is not a sustainable model. Every engagement concludes with a knowledge transfer session, full documentation, and CI/CD-integrated test infrastructure that your team can run, extend, and own independently. We leave capability behind, not dependency.

Our Values

What We Stand For

🔍
Rigour Over Reassurance
We tell clients what we find — including things they would prefer not to hear. Our value is in honest, technically credible findings, not in confirming that everything is fine.
🤝
Transparency Always
We explain our methodology, our tooling, and our reasoning. We do not produce black-box reports that clients cannot interrogate. Everything we produce is reproducible and explainable.
🇬🇧
UK-First Thinking
Our frameworks are built around UK industry contexts and UK regulatory institutions — not adapted from US standards. We understand the specific risk landscape of UK-regulated AI deployments.
🏗️
Build for the Long Term
Every engagement is designed to leave your team more capable than we found them. Sustainable AI assurance means your organisation can test independently — with us as a partner, not a dependency.
