Fifty One Degrees is dedicated to transforming businesses. We support clients with building an AI-enabled digital platform, serving customers better and enabling dramatic efficiencies.
Our founders spent the last decade building a FinTech that ranked in the Top 10 of Sunday Times TechTrack and processed up to 4 million customers each year, and a leading analytics consultancy that served the largest global financial services companies. What they learned is our true passion is driving progress.
While each piece of work is different, we often rapidly develop a prototype to validate the effectiveness for a specific task. The PoC demonstrates real-world feasibility while minimising cost and delivery risk. A typical deliverable is a basic AI agent addressing one core use case.
Indicative timeline: ~2 weeks
Once validated, the PoC is developed into a fully functional solution and then deployed as a beta version, gathering data and feedback for further improvements. Key features are expanded functionality for broader use cases, performance monitoring and reporting tools and integration with your existing platforms.
Indicative timeline: ~1 month
After the beta phase, we then fold in iterative learnings and perform the full release, including addressing the impact on team members with training and documentation. At this point, the agent is ready to scale to meet your operational demands. This phase includes advanced optimisations, features, and the capacity to handle higher volumes and complexity.
Indicative timeline: dependant on you

Before launching Fifty One Degrees, Nick co-founded Fluro in 2012, quickly establishing it as one of the UK’s fastest-growing FinTech firms. During his ten years as CEO, he spearheaded a pioneering customer acquisition strategy that propelled Fluro to handle four million customers annually. Fluro was recognised in the Sunday Times Tech Track 100 three times, the Deloitte Fast50 twice, and numerous customer experience awards. Nick’s academic background is in computer science, before a career in banking and finance.
Whereas, prior to Fifty One Degrees Mark co-founded 4most, the UK’s largest independent credit risk and analytics consultancy in 2011. As co-CEO, Mark oversaw the expansion of 4most to include over 200 consultants operating across three territories, broadening its services to encompass Life Insurance, Economics, and various other practices. The distinctive culture and values he nurtured led to 4most being recognised as the best workplace in the credit risk sector for three consecutive years. Mark completed a PhD in Astro Physics before a career in credit risk.
