Your business, minus the busywork.

We're Elaq, an Irish crew building AI, automation, IT and cyber security that actually works. No jargon. No notions. No six-month "transformation journeys." Just clever tech that earns its keep and a team you'd happily buy a pint.

Come here to me · Why Elaq

Most "AI transformation" is a lad in a quarter-zip showing you slides. We're the opposite.

You don't want a buzzword bingo card. You want fewer manual hours, systems that talk to each other, and AI doing the tedious jobs your team hates. That's the whole gig. We figure out where the clever tech pays off, build it properly, and stick around to make sure it actually gets used. No faffing.

What we do · Cad a dhéanaimid

Four things. All of them useful.

★ Our bread & butter

AI TransformationThe clever stuff

This is our home turf. We hunt down the jobs where AI genuinely earns its keep (support, sales ops, mountains of paperwork, forecasting) and put working tools in your team's hands. Custom copilots, agents that do the graft, automation that runs while you sleep. AI you own, not a demo you forget by Friday.

Cyber SecurityThe bouncer

The clever stuff widens your attack surface, so we mind the door. Right-sized protection for SMEs: assessments, hardening, monitoring and the policies that keep your clients (and the regulator) happy. Sleeps with one eye open so you don't have to.

Security assessmentsThreat monitoringCompliance & policy

IT ServicesThe plumbing

Dependable, managed IT for teams who'd rather not hire a whole department. Support, cloud and infrastructure that just works, plus fractional CTO-level advice when you need someone in your corner. Boring, in the best possible way.

Data & AutomationThe elbow grease

AI is only as good as the data beneath it. We fix the plumbing behind the plumbing (clean it, connect it, automate it) so your systems talk to each other and the repetitive stuff runs itself. No more copy-paste at half five on a Friday.

How we work · Conas a oibrímid

We pour it like a pint. In two parts.

Guinness gets poured in two goes: fill, let it settle, then top it off. Same idea here: we prove it works before we ask you to commit to the whole thing. No twelve-month transformation theatre.

01 · Aimsigh

Find the money

A short, sharp look at where time and money leak. We come back with the two or three moves worth making first.

02 · Cruthaigh

Pull the first half

A working pilot in weeks, not quarters, so you see the return before the big spend. This is the "let it settle" bit.

03 · Tóg

Top it off

We build the real thing, production-grade, fitted to how your team already works, with security and cost baked in.

04 · Neadaigh

Hand you the glass

Training, docs and support so the change outlives the project and your team actually owns it.

The honest version

the longest we'll keep you waiting for anything. That's a pint. Everything else, we move quicker.

senior Irish team on your project, start to finish. No handoffs to juniors.

buzzwords, notions, or twelve-month "transformation journeys." Ever.

Meet for a pint · Pionta?

The first round's on us.

We do our best thinking with a pint in hand, so here's the deal: tell us the one thing driving your team mad, and we'll buy the first round while we figure out how to fix it. In person, over Teams, or, if you're feeling adventurous, at Ireland's highest pub.

Fair warning: nobody actually agrees which pub that is. Johnnie Fox's has claimed it since 1798. Kerry says Top of Coom. Derry swears it's the Ponderosa. We'll happily settle the argument in the name of research.

Our story · Ár scéal

From Newgrange to neural networks.

Five thousand years ago, Irish hands carved the triple spiral into the stones of Newgrange and engineered light to fall through a passage on the winter solstice, a thousand years before the pyramids. That knack for clever building never left the island.

Elaq runs on it. We're Irish-owned, Irish-run, and a bit stubborn about the idea that Ireland shouldn't import its transformation. It should build it. World-class tech, made here, for the businesses that keep the lights on.

Déanta in Éirinn. Made in Ireland, for Ireland.

Our word on it

No small print. Just our word.

Every job starts with a fixed-price pilot. You see the payoff before you commit to the big build, and your downside is capped from day one.

★ No nasty surprises

The same senior Irish head from the first pint to the final handover. No juniors, no bait-and-switch.

★ How we work

Tógaimis.

Let's build.

Tell us the one process that's driving your team mad. We'll tell you (free, no notions) whether AI or automation can fix it, what it'd take, and roughly what it'd cost. Worst case, you get a pint out of it.
