Services

Four offerings.
One outcome: AI you can rely on.

Every engagement is scoped, priced, and dated up front. We engineer the systems that make AI behave the same way twice — efficiently, repeatably, and measurably — and we leave you with the playbook to keep doing it after we go.

01 / Harness design

Consistent quality, by construction.

The purpose of a harness is to get consistent quality results — the same right answer, twice, across the kinds of inputs your users actually send. We design and build the loop, in your stack, by engineers who have shipped this five times before.

Duration 4–8 weeks, fixed. Engineers 1–2, full attention. Starts at $48k

What it covers

  • →Routing & orchestration
  • →Business-aware agents (your data, policies, voice)
  • →Smart per-task model selection
  • →Tool-use design & schemas
  • →Retrieval & context strategy
  • →Memory & state
  • →Guardrails & refusal policy
  • →Observability & tracing
  • →Cost & latency budgets
  • →Automatic fallback & model-swap path

Deliverables

  1. 01
    Codebase & system audit. Plain-English assessment of architecture, quality, security, and technical debt.
  2. 02
    Working harness in your repo. Routing, retrieval, business-aware agents, smart model selection. Merged PR, reviewed by your team.
  3. 03
    Automated CI/CD pipeline. End-to-end: code commit → AI review → security scan → tests → docs → deploy.
  4. 04
    Eval suite, in CI. Fixtures, judges, rubrics — runs on every PR. Quality is gated, not guessed.
  5. 05
    Continuous security scanning. Every change checked for vulnerabilities and policy violations — not monthly, every commit.
  6. 06
    Auto-generated documentation. Full technical docs for the codebase, kept current automatically as code changes.
  7. 07
    Architecture memo & handover. ~8 pages. What's there, why, where it'll break first, and what to do next.
  8. 08
    30-day on-call window. Questions, regressions, the inevitable "wait, why did we…"
A typical outcome

An end-to-end task-completion rate that moves from around 0.55 to above 0.80, with answer variance cut by more than half — and the eval suite to defend both numbers on Monday morning.

02 / Eval strategy

If you can't measure it, you can't repeat it.

Repeatable quality starts with knowing what quality is. We build the evaluation system your team will use long after we're gone — the harness that turns AI improvements into measurable deltas, and catches the regression you didn't know to look for.

Duration 2–4 weeks, fixed. Engineers 1, full attention. Starts at $24k

What it covers

  • →Fixture sourcing from real traffic
  • →Rubric design & calibration
  • →Judge models & LLM-as-judge tuning
  • →Pairwise & rubric-graded scoring
  • →Regression detection in CI
  • →Cost & runtime budgets
  • →Slice analysis (cohorts, intents)
  • →Human-eval workflow

A typical outcome

The eval suite catches a regression within the first month. Your team stops shipping AI changes on vibes — and starts shipping them with the same discipline as any other code change.

03 / Embedded advisory

A senior AI engineer on call.

For teams that already have the engineers. We're the sparring partner who has seen how AI systems fail — and what keeps them reliable — in your Slack, in your PRs, in your weekly review.

Duration Quarterly, renewable. Cadence Weekly + async. From $9k / month

What's included

  • Weekly office hour A 60-minute working session with your platform / ML leads. Async questions answered between.
  • Architecture review Monthly written review of the system's current shape, with concrete next-step recommendations.
  • PR review Up to 10 reviews / month on changes to the agent harness or eval suite.
  • Incident on call Same-business-day response on regressions. We've debugged this before, you don't have to.
  • Hiring panel Optional. We sit in on your ML / platform interviews and write up the technical signal.
A typical outcome

Your team makes fewer architectural mistakes that take six weeks to unwind. AI features get shipped with the same repeatable discipline as the rest of your engineering — because the second opinion is already in the room.

04 / Custom agent platforms

A platform of intelligent agents, designed for your business.

Built on our proven AgentWorkforce architecture — in production today — we design a fleet of specialist agents around a triage router, with shared memory and multi-channel reach. You don't get a chatbot; you get an AI workforce.

Architecture deep-dive →
Duration 8–14 weeks, fixed. Engineers 2–3, full attention. Starts at $96k

Architecture you inherit

  • →Multi-agent registry & triage routing
  • →Three-tier model strategy (Haiku/Sonnet/Opus)
  • →Centralized Gateway + Event Bus
  • →Persistent hybrid memory (vector + BM25)
  • →Skill engine (YAML/MD, hot reload)
  • →Inter-skill SDK with dependency tracking
  • →Multi-channel adapters (chat, webhook, cron)
  • →Heartbeat scheduler & lifecycle hooks
  • →Proactive reasoning & alert routing
  • →Cross-channel sessions & isolation
  • →Secrets in OS keychain, output sanitizer
  • →Full observability & tracing

What you walk away with

  1. 01
    Org-map & agent roster. Your business mapped to specialist roles — with tier, scope, and skills documented for each.
  2. 02
    A working platform, deployed. The full AgentWorkforce stack, configured for your domain, running in your infrastructure.
  3. 03
    A starter library of skills. Initial skills covering the agents' core jobs — tool calls, retrievals, integrations — ready to extend.
  4. 04
    Eval suite per agent. Each specialist has its own fixture set and rubrics — so when one agent regresses, you know it's that one.
  5. 05
    A skill authoring playbook. Your team can add new capabilities themselves — the SKILL.md format is small enough to teach in an afternoon.
  6. 06
    Architecture memo & on-call. A full handover memo, plus a 30-day on-call window for the first agents going live.
A typical outcome

A platform of 4–8 specialist agents your team uses daily — via chat, CLI, and scheduled jobs — with new capabilities added by editing YAML, not by waiting on engineering.

— Implementation

A four-phase rollout.
Value at every step.

You don't wait until the end to see results. Each phase ships something you can use, measure, and trust — long before we're "finished."

PHASE 01
Week 1

Audit & brief.

A complete pass over the codebase and the AI surface. We map the architecture, identify the failure modes, and write a one-page memo: scope, success metric, what counts as done.

You receive · Audit report
PHASE 02
Weeks 2–3

Baseline & harness.

Real-traffic fixtures, first-pass eval suite, an honest readout of where the system is today. The harness skeleton lands in your repo — routing, retrieval, business context wired up.

You receive · Working baseline
PHASE 03
Weeks 4–N

Build & harden.

Iteration cycle: PRs land, evals run in CI, security scans run on every commit. Documentation is generated as code changes. Every improvement attaches its own eval delta.

You receive · Production pipeline
PHASE 04
Final week

Handover & on-call.

Handover memo, onboarding guide for the next engineer, and a 30-day window where we're a Slack message away. Monthly health reports continue if you want them.

You receive · Handover & playbook
— Additive, not disruptive

We protect the investment you've already made.

You've already paid to build your system. Code Automation isn't a rewrite — it's the maintenance layer that keeps what you've built healthy, secure, and improvable for years to come.

  • Audit-first

    We start by mapping what's already there — architecture, dependencies, technical debt — before we recommend a single change.

  • Non-disruptive

    The pipeline integrates with your existing workflow. Your current developers keep working normally; the automation runs alongside.

  • Knowledge capture

    As part of onboarding, we auto-generate documentation for everything that exists today. For many clients, this is the first complete picture they've ever had of their own system.

  • Security hardening

    The initial audit surfaces existing vulnerabilities. We remediate them as part of integration — not as a separate, billable engagement.

  • No vendor lock-in

    The codebase stays yours. The pipeline is built on industry-standard platforms — GitHub Actions, your cloud, your CI — not a proprietary box you can't open.

— FAQ

Common questions.

Do you work with non-technical teams? +

Rarely well. Our process assumes someone on your side reads PRs and owns the system after we leave. If that's not in place, we'll be honest about it on the intro call.

Will you sign an NDA? +

Yes. Mutual NDA before the brief; full MSA before code touches your repo. We use a standard template, edits welcome.

What stacks do you work in? +

Python, TypeScript, Go — in that order of frequency. We've shipped harnesses on Anthropic, OpenAI, Bedrock, Vertex, and open-weights models running on vLLM, TGI, and Modal.

Can you start next week? +

Probably not. We typically have a 3–5 week lead time and run two engagements at most. We'll tell you the truth on the call — and if we can't help in your timeline, we'll point you to people who can.

What happens if we want to extend? +

Most engagements add a second phase. We re-scope, re-quote, and re-date — same discipline as the first one. There is no "we'll figure it out as we go."

What's the smallest thing you'll do? +

A two-week eval engagement. Below that we're not adding much you couldn't do yourself in a focused sprint.

Ready to scope something?

A 30-minute call. Bring the problem. We'll tell you what we'd do.
