Where expertise meets AI

AI Bods was founded on a simple belief: the organisations that will benefit most from AI are those that adopt it wisely. Not blindly. Not recklessly. But with the right strategy, the right safeguards, and the right people guiding the way.

The name says it all. Bods — people who know their stuff. We are a team of seasoned practitioners who have spent decades at the intersection of enterprise architecture, technology strategy, and now Generative AI.

Our founder, Tim Gentry, brings over 20 years of Enterprise Architecture and Thought Leadership experience across banking, fintech, pharmaceuticals, and global technology consulting — now applied to one of the most important challenges facing organisations today.
