Where AI actually pays off — on the ground.

Most "AI strategy" decks die in a Notion page nobody opens. We don't write decks. We sit with your team, find the workflow that's bleeding hours, and ship a working pilot in weeks. Then we tell you whether to scale it or kill it.

Discovery sprint — 2 weeks

For teams who keep saying "we should be using AI for that" and need someone to actually look. Two weeks, fixed price. Output: a prioritized opportunity list with effort estimates, a pilot recommendation, and one working prototype of the highest-ROI use case.

  • Team interviews and workflow shadowing
  • Existing data and tooling audit
  • Build vs. buy recommendation per opportunity
  • One working prototype of the top pick

Pilot build — 4 to 6 weeks

You've identified the workflow. We build the production pilot end to end — model selection, eval harness, integration, the boring parts. Hand-off includes the code, the docs, and a runbook for your team to operate it.

  • Model selection and cost modeling
  • Evaluation harness so quality is measurable, not vibes
  • Integration into your existing stack
  • Internal training so your team owns it after we leave

Embedded engagement — monthly

For teams shipping AI features continuously. We embed part-time as your AI engineering function — building, reviewing, and pushing back on bad ideas. Limited to two clients at a time so we actually pay attention.

  • Weekly working sessions with eng and product
  • Code, evals, and architecture reviews
  • On-call for production AI incidents
  • One feature shipped per month, minimum

What we won't do

Generic "AI roadmap" PDFs. Vendor-locked recommendations dressed up as advice. Promises about ROI we can't measure. If your problem is better solved with a Zapier and a Notion database, we'll tell you and refund the rest.

Have a workflow that's burning time?

Send a few sentences about it. We'll reply with whether it's worth a discovery sprint, or whether you can solve it tomorrow without us.
