About Pelian
Pelian is an AI development agency that builds the things most teams talk about building. Agents that own entire workflows. Voice AI that handles real calls. Applications that run on intelligence, not rules.
No hype, no pilot programs, no 6-month discovery phases. We build AI that works - and ships in weeks.
What we believe
Ship, don't pitch
We spend our time building, not making decks. Every engagement produces working software - not a roadmap to maybe start building later.
AI should pay for itself
If a solution doesn't save time, cut costs, or unlock revenue, we won't build it. Every project has a measurable return.
Weeks, not quarters
Most projects ship in 4-12 weeks. We move fast because we've done this before and because your business can't wait.
You own everything
Every line of code, every model, every pipeline. No lock-in, no recurring platform fees, no dependency on us to keep it running.
How Pelian works
Discovery call
We learn your business, find the highest-leverage AI opportunity, and scope the work.
Fixed-price proposal
Clear deliverables, timeline, and cost. No hourly billing, no surprises.
Build & ship
Direct access to the people building your product. Weekly demos, tight feedback loops.
Monitor & iterate
We stick around to make sure it works in production. Performance tracking, model tuning, support.
Who's behind Pelian

Achilleas Drakou
Founder · Based in London
On a mission to turn cutting-edge AI into working products that solve real problems.
Started in analytics and applied ML (MSc Honors), spent years as a data scientist, then moved into full-stack engineering. Since 2023, every waking hour has gone into building AI products that actually work for real businesses. Startups going 0 to 1, enterprises leveling up their stack. The through-line is the same: ship fast, measure everything, let the data flywheel do its job.
Day to day, that means AI agents, chat and voice interfaces, Graph RAG systems, and ML models. We partner with Anthropic, NVIDIA, Azure, IBM, Google, and Cloudflare.
