Core offering

Pinboard Consulting is a dedicated Graph + AI consultancy delivering professional services to enterprise clients, including education and training (workshops in graph schema design, GSQL and openCypher query writing), enterprise implementation (strategy, prototyping, integration with data lakes and BI/ML Ops platforms), product development, schema and ontology design, network simulation and analytics, graph assessment and optimisation, and hiring support. Services span greenfield implementations to optimising existing solutions, applied across verticals such as supply chain, logistics, cyber-security, banking, fashion retail, and FMCG.

Product overview

Pinboard Consulting Limited operates as a dedicated Graph + AI consultancy offering a comprehensive portfolio of professional services rather than a single unified product. The core offering comprises consulting services including education and training (workshops in graph schema design, GSQL and openCypher query writing, database administration), enterprise implementation (strategy, prototyping, full integration), product development, schema and ontology design, network simulation, network analytics, graph assessment and optimization, and hiring support. These services are delivered across six industry verticals: Supply Chain (value chain analysis, supplier networks), Logistics (freight optimization, entity resolution), Cyber-Security (attack path analytics), Banking (enterprise knowledge graphs, AML), Fashion Retail (agentic buyer personas), and FMCG (BOM analytics, procurement agents). The company does not offer a packaged software product but rather implements graph technology solutions tailored to client needs.
