Our Approach

We bring experience, judgment, and deep understanding to every problem—building AI systems that actually hold up in production.

We don't sell experiments, prototypes, or hype-driven AI initiatives. We build systems that work.

Let's understand

Our Focus

We help teams build AI systems they can actually own

After a decade in software and ML engineering—building products, shipping systems, and watching AI projects succeed and fail—one pattern became clear: the failures almost always start with complexity, not capability.

We work across the full spectrum: greenfield projects, rescuing failed initiatives, taking prototypes to production, and augmenting existing teams. What stays constant is the approach—start simple, prove value, then scale.

How We Approach Problems

01

Understand first

Understand the problem before proposing solutions—most AI projects fail at the framing stage.

02

Audit what's been tried

If you're rescuing a failed initiative, we diagnose before we rebuild.

03

Prototype to validate

Small tests that prove or disprove assumptions quickly—not to impress.

04

Build for handoff

Your team should be able to own and evolve what we build together.

When to Use What

Choosing the right level of complexity for your problem

RAG & Knowledge Systems

Retrieval-augmented generation works well when you have existing knowledge that needs to be surfaced accurately—not generated.

Good fit: Internal knowledge bases, document Q&A, decision-support with citations.

Often overkill: Simple lookup tables, well-structured databases, cases where traditional search suffices.

Agentic Workflows

Agents add value when tasks require coordination, tool use, or autonomous decision-making—but they also add complexity.

Good fit: Multi-step processes, human-in-the-loop workflows, operations that benefit from autonomy.

Often overkill: Single-step tasks, predictable workflows, cases where a simple API call suffices.

Simpler architectures often win. We help you find the right level of complexity.

What We Say No To

Not every project is a good fit. We turn down work when:

The problem isn't clearly defined—"we need AI" isn't a use case
The timeline doesn't match reality—rushing leads to rework
The request is hype-driven—chasing trends over solving problems
Quality is negotiable—we don't cut corners to hit arbitrary deadlines

What You Get

When we work together, you walk away with more than code

Production code—systems built to ship, not prototypes
Architecture documentation your team can follow and extend
Team enablement—training and knowledge transfer
Confidence to move forward—validated approach, not guesswork
Ongoing relationship—support doesn't end at handoff
