High Elm Studio was founded by Neil Peacock in 2020 - but its roots reach back much further.
It began with stories. Told around fires, across continents, through campaigns and camera lenses. Over a decade spent crafting narratives and decoding systems - merging the emotional with the analytical. This blend became the foundation: creative clarity paired with operational rigour.
What started as a solo venture has grown into a small, sharp team - a trusted network of creatives, analysts, and technologists who believe in the power of simplicity. We build custom AI agents that sit quietly inside your business, automating the tasks that slow you down - the daily to-dos, the weekly check-ins, the monthly reports. The work that keeps the wheels turning. So your team can spend more time creating, selling, building, thinking. Living.
Our approach is grounded in the 80/20 rule: focus on the vital few that create the greatest impact. From internal comms to content generation, financial reporting to customer engagement — we help businesses plug into a smarter, smoother future. No dashboards, no noise. Just clear systems and intelligent support.
Today, we work with clients across the UK, Netherlands, Italy, Morocco, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Japan, and Peru. Each one different. Each one writing their own story in this new era of AI.
And that’s what we care about most: the human side of all this. The story behind the work. The pattern behind the progress.
Because in the end, this isn’t about the tech. It’s about time. Energy. Growth. Freedom.
And you.
We’d love to help you write your next chapter.
