AI training for teams
Hands-on workshops on generative AI, prompt practice, and building custom agents, for professionals who use AI at work rather than build it.
Usually a half-day or full-day session, in Hong Kong or remote.
ikz.ai is a Hong Kong AI consultancy.
We build, train, and evaluate AI systems for teams that need them to actually work.
Applied AI consulting
Machine-learning features taken from idea to production: computer vision, physiological-signal pipelines, LLM applications, and multi-agent systems.
Usually a scoped build, or a prototype that settles whether an idea is worth building.
Research & evaluation
Model evaluation, human-AI decision research, and study design and validation, grounded in peer-reviewed research practice.
Usually an evaluation harness, a study design, or a written technical review.
Blockchain & verifiable AI
Zero-knowledge circuit development in Circom, ZKML, smart contracts in Solidity, and protocol research.
Usually circuit or contract work against a defined spec, or a protocol design review.
ikz.ai is led by Dr. Cathie So: PhD in psychology from the University of Hong Kong, founder of the AI-powered cat wellness app Helpurr, previously Chief Scientist at a verifiable-machine-learning lab and a ZKML researcher at the Ethereum Foundation. Her research has appeared in Nature Communications, Frontiers in Psychology, and PLOS ONE.
