What we do at Barnacle Labs


Barnacle Labs is the GenAI team, building solutions that make a difference to the world. We’re the team behind NanCI from the US government’s National Cancer Institute (NCI) – an app that “uses AI to find the scientific content and connections that help cancer researchers build a successful and fulfilling career to end cancer as we know it.” As a company, we’re exclusively focused on GenAI, where we help clients spot the opportunities and build solutions that change things.

🎯 Why we do what we do


GenAI is the future. There’s a lot of hype, but the reality behind the headlines is solid – GenAI is redefining what’s possible. Bloomberg estimates the market to grow to be $1.3tn over the next 10 years. GenAI has captured attention at the C-level, where interest is high – teams with the ability to connect the dots and deliver ambitious solutions have a unique opportunity to talk IT at the board level and that’s us.

We’re about having an impact on the world. We focus on responsible AI – delivering solutions that address the challenges of hallucination and bias, but which also do more than the routine. Our C-level conversations enable us to propose projects that have an impact on the world – whether that’s through helping researchers to end cancer, enabling new forms of fan engagement in elite sports, helping students to engage with educational technology on their own terms, or automating health screenings at scale. We work on things that bring value to humanity, not gimmicks.

🔮 What we’re looking for
