Alastair Murray is the founder of SapienAI, the London consultancy that works only with Anthropic’s Claude. He is known for founding CloudShift, a UK Salesforce partner that Globant bought in 2021 (Globant).
Founding CloudShift
He was founder and CEO of CloudShift, a London Salesforce Platinum Partner with 89 professionals that worked for brands such as Hitachi, Square Enix, Freshfields, and Colliers International. Globant acquired it in March 2021 to build a European Salesforce studio (Globant).
At the sale he said CloudShift designed and built “innovative digital platforms on Salesforce that help bring companies and customers together” (Globant).
Starting SapienAI
He announced SapienAI in 2026 as his third digital venture, after CloudShift and iMMERSIVE (LinkedIn). The firm trains staff on Claude, builds agentic workflows, and creates Claude-based products, and Anthropic made it a Select partner in October 2026 (Claude Partner Network directory).
