Your AI transformation has a gap.
You're investing in capabilities. So are your competitors. Within 18 months, those capabilities become table stakes, not differentiators.

BuildMoat builds what's missing: the defensibility layer that sustains advantage when everyone has the same AI.

We help founders and business leaders identify where their business is exposed to commoditisation and build the competitive architecture that protects them. Moats that competitors cannot replicate even with identical capabilities.

What we do:
AI Defensibility Diagnostics: Identify vulnerabilities and map your path to defensibility
Strategy Workshops: Determine which moats fit your business and create activation roadmaps
Transformation Programmes: Full implementation of defensibility infrastructure over 9-12 months

The moats we build:
Community-enabled defensibility. Distribution power. Proprietary data. Ecosystem control. Workflow embedding. The assets AI cannot copy.

Who we work with:
Founders and business leaders at £1M-£50M businesses facing AI commoditisation. Product leaders watching roadmaps get replicated. Executives whose AI transformation needs a defensibility layer.

Founded by Emeka Ogbonnaya after 15 years in product and strategy at HSBC, Mastercard, BMO Capital Markets, and the Bank of England.
