Deeplight AI

What Deeplight AI does

Deeplight AI is a Dubai-based artificial intelligence consultancy that delivers production AI systems for financial institutions across the UAE, GCC, London (Lloyd's), Bermuda, and ADGM-regulated environments. The company serves three primary verticals — banking, insurance and re-insurance, and capital markets — with delivery methodology designed to comply with FSRA, Lloyd's model risk framework, UAE Insurance Authority, ADGM, and Bermuda regulatory requirements. Reference clients include a top-3 UAE commercial bank, a UAE national energy authority, a GCC corporate bank, a UAE corporate bank, and a German investment bank; the firm claims 1,300+ AI models deployed and $250M+ Gross Written Premium running on its systems in insurance markets.

Deeplight's offering portfolio comprises three structured products. Quartet Discovery Sprint is an 8-week fixed-fee strategy engagement priced at $132,000 that produces an AI maturity assessment, prioritised use-case roadmap, and governance framework. Accelerate is a 12-week fixed-price delivery programme priced at $185,000 (mid-market), $240,000 (standard), or $330,000 (complex), delivering one production-ready AI model with a hard GO/NO-GO gate at Week 3 to validate data viability before full commitment. Muse AI is a secure, bank-hosted Generative AI platform deployed in-region on the customer's own AWS infrastructure, built on open-source foundation models (Deepseek R1, Llama 3.3, Nemotron) with embeddings stored in the customer's ChromaDB instance, enabling natural-language querying of documents, data, and core systems without data leaving the customer's environment. Together these products form a strategy-to-deployment progression with an ongoing platform capability.

The firm operates an enterprise field-sales go-to-market: customers enter through a 30-minute qualification call with no pitch deck or proposal in the first conversation, followed by structured engagement programmes. Deeplight is privately held (registered as Deeplight Technologies in DIFC, Dubai), with no disclosed external funding, deriving revenue from fixed-fee service engagements and platform deployments. Leadership comprises Tristan Blakely as Chief Executive Officer and Terrence Kunstek as Chief Technology Officer. AWS is positioned as a core technology partner, with Netlify, Google, LinkedIn, and HubSpot used for site operations, analytics, and CRM.
