HOW WE SHIP AI

From feasibility
to continuous operations.

Every engagement runs on the same playbook: discover the business case, co-create the solution, then build, ship, and review against the numbers we agreed up front.

STEP 01
01

Discover & diagnose

Understand the business before the model

We start with your goals, not your tech stack: the business problem, why now, and what it costs to do nothing. Output, a written engagement memo, a build-vs-buy analysis, the success metrics we agree up front, and a benchmarked model recommendation.

DELIVERABLES
  • Business discovery
  • Build-vs-buy memo
  • Success metrics (KPIs)
  • Model benchmark
STEP 02
02

Advise & co-create

Design the solution together, sign it off before we build

We design the AI architecture (RAG, agents, fine-tuning) with your team, set up the eval harness, choose the vector store, and map the risks (budget, integration, security, adoption) before any production code is cut. You approve the plan, and the phased roadmap, before we commit to it.

DELIVERABLES
  • Solution co-design
  • Eval harness
  • Risk & mitigation map
  • Phased roadmap
STEP 03
03

Build, ship & review

Two-week sprints, then a review on the numbers

Demoable increments every Friday, continuous eval runs, red-team passes, and a clean handover at production. After go-live we run an executive business review against the KPIs we agreed, and line up the next phase of the roadmap.

DELIVERABLES
  • Two-week sprints
  • Continuous evals
  • MLOps handover
  • Executive review
[ 02 ] PRINCIPLES

What we believe.

Evals before demos

A pretty demo without an eval is theatre. We attach an eval harness before model selection and treat regressions as bugs.

Senior AI engineers only

No bench-warmers learning on your dime. Every engineer in your engagement is 5+ years deep in shipping production ML and AI.

Honest about limits

We say no to AI builds where rules will work, where data isn’t ready, or where the risk profile doesn’t justify the autonomy.

MLOps from day one

Eval runs, drift monitors, audit trails, version pinning, the things that turn an AI demo into a deployable product.
