Secure engineering services
From first discovery to production support, we build practical systems that feel smooth to customers and sane for the teams who run them.
Analytics & Business Intelligence
We turn scattered operational data into dashboards, pipelines and decision support that are clear enough for both leaders and delivery teams.
Digital Transformation Consulting
We help organisations decide where cloud, AI and automation create real value, then shape the technical roadmap around delivery risk and long-term ownership.
Product Discovery & Rapid Prototyping
We turn early ideas into clickable prototypes, technical spikes and delivery plans so teams can test value before committing to a full build.
Managed Operations & Support
We keep production systems healthy with monitoring, incident response, performance tuning, release support and clear improvement roadmaps.
About Chaplau
Chaplau is a Dublin-based engineering studio becoming a member-owned developer cooperative. The point is simple: keep expert builders close to the work, aligned with client outcomes and accountable for systems after launch.
Continuity over churn
The cooperative transition is designed to keep experienced engineers close to the work, the client context and the long-term consequences of technical choices.
Accountability by design
Shared ownership means the people building and operating systems have a direct stake in quality, maintainability and client trust.
No pressure to overpromise
The model we are building toward favours sustainable margins, reusable tooling and careful delivery over investor-led growth at any cost.
Security-minded stewardship
Data protection, AI governance and operational resilience become part of the ownership culture, not an afterthought bolted onto delivery.
AI, MCP and security systems
We build AI-enabled systems with the controls they need in production: private deployment options, governed agent tooling, observable integrations and security posture work.
MCP servers and agent tooling
Custom Model Context Protocol servers that expose internal tools, prompts and data resources through governed, observable interfaces.
Private and local LLM deployment
On-premise or private-cloud model hosting for teams that need data sovereignty, reduced API dependency and auditable inference paths.
AI-specific security controls
Prompt-injection defences, access controls, output filtering, immutable audit logs and risk reviews for AI-enabled systems.
Compliance-aware delivery
Security posture improvement, evidence collection and policy alignment for teams working toward GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2 or NIST CSF expectations.
Security Posture Improvement
From threat modelling to penetration testing, we harden your cloud and AI systems against real-world attacks — and accelerate ISO 27001, SOC 2 and GDPR compliance.
Threat Modelling & Risk Assessment
STRIDE/DREAD analysis across your cloud infrastructure and AI workloads, producing a prioritised risk register and a clear, actionable remediation roadmap.
AI-Specific Security Controls
Prompt injection defences, model access controls, output content filtering and immutable audit logging — purpose-built for AI-powered applications.
Compliance Acceleration
Automated evidence collection and policy alignment for ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and NIST CSF — cutting months from your certification timeline.
Penetration Testing & Red-Teaming
Ethical red-team exercises against your infrastructure, APIs and AI endpoints to find and fix exploitable weaknesses before real attackers do.
