Selected work

The problems we solve, in practice.

Representative engagements — the shape of the work and how we approach it. Client names are withheld; the patterns are real.

Engagement 01
B2B SaaS
Pre-seed → seed

A prototype that demoed well and broke under real users

The challenge. A founding team had a compelling AI prototype built in a no-code AI tool. It won meetings and fell apart the moment real users and real data arrived: no evals, secrets in the client, no way to change a prompt without breaking three others.

What we did. We rebuilt it as a production system — proper architecture, an evaluation harness around the core AI behavior, guardrails and auth, and observability into every model call — without losing the momentum the prototype had created.

Outcome

  • Production codebase the team owns, with CI and evals
  • Prompt and model changes shippable with confidence
  • Ready to onboard real customers safely
  • prototype-to-production
  • evals
  • reliability
Engagement 02
Vertical software
Series A

"We should use AI somewhere" → a fundable product thesis

The challenge. An existing product team knew AI mattered but was stuck debating models and features with no shared thesis. Every idea was a feature; none was a strategy.

What we did. We ran a focused framing engagement: identified where intelligence created real leverage in the workflow, defined the AI surface and the data and feedback loops it needed, and produced a costed, sequenced roadmap from prototype to production.

Outcome

  • A single, sharp AI-native product thesis
  • Evaluation and success metrics agreed up front
  • A phased plan the team could fund and build against
  • ai-product-strategy
  • roadmap
Engagement 03
Knowledge / operations
Seed → Series A

A RAG assistant nobody trusted

The challenge. A retrieval assistant was live but wrong often enough that users stopped relying on it. There was no way to measure quality, so every fix was a guess.

What we did. We built an evaluation dataset and scoring for the assistant, re-architected retrieval and prompting against those evals, and added guardrails and citations so answers were verifiable — turning "hope it works" into a number we could move.

Outcome

  • Measurable answer quality with regression protection
  • Verifiable, cited responses users could trust
  • A repeatable loop for improving the system
  • applied-ai-engineering
  • rag
  • evals

Under NDA on most of what we build. If you’d like references or a deeper walkthrough relevant to your situation, we’ll arrange it on a call.
