operator-grade ai

Operator-grade AI systems for high-stakes operations.

We build instrumented production AI systems for critical operations, risk, and decision support. Every release ships with metrics, evals, and a human override.

evidence-first

KPIs, eval harnesses, and telemetry ship with the first slice.

fat-tail ready

Circuit breakers, human-in-the-loop fallbacks, and audit trails baked in.

direct access

Principals stay on the project; no handoff to a shadow team.

Team

We are a hands-on group of physicists, computer scientists, AI researchers, software engineers, and mathematicians who ship working systems, not slideware. We model the core of your process, instrument it end to end, then deliver production AI that moves the P&L.

  • Physicists: first-principles modeling and measurement so decisions rest on signal, not vibe.
  • Software and systems engineers: robust, scalable services that integrate cleanly with your stack.
  • AI researchers and mathematicians: modern retrieval, optimization, and learning methods tuned for your data and constraints.
  • Single mission: convert deep theory into practical leverage that compounds.
Why it matters

Operator-grade results need principals who can model, build, and harden end to end—no handoffs, no slideware.

Vision

AI should produce measurable advantage, not maintenance burden. Our vision is simple: make intelligent systems that cut cycle times, reduce unit costs, improve quality, and unlock new products. If a tool does not achieve a proven business delta, we do not ship it.

Why it matters

Everything stays anchored to cycle time, unit cost, and quality so effort turns into business delta, not theater.

Approach

We run a fast, testable loop so value shows up early and grows.

  • Diagnose: map the value stream, pick the KPIs, set baselines.
  • Design: choose the minimal architecture that can win—observable and simple.
  • Deploy: ship a production slice with evals and human-in-the-loop controls.
  • Compound: iterate on real data, expand automation, retire complexity that does not pay.
Why it matters

Short loops prove lift early and surface fat-tail failure modes before they become incidents.

Technology

We build with proven primitives: retrieval over your private data, compact fine-tunes where justified, differentiable programs for simulation-grade tasks, and strict observability. Everything is vendor-aware but vendor-agnostic, with security, privacy, and governance designed in. Integration uses clear APIs and message buses you already run.

  • Retrieval over private data with freshness checks and lineage.
  • Compact fine-tunes and differentiable programs where they beat prompts.
  • Security, privacy, and governance designed in with full observability.
Why it matters

Observable primitives your teams know mean faster security review and a smaller blast radius in production.

Opportunity

Most teams leave value on the table because they lack a clear, measurable plan. We deliver one quickly.

  • Streamline operations: automate repeatable workflows with auditable fallbacks.
  • Enhance customer experience: faster, more accurate responses with traceability.
  • Mine data for decisions: turn messy text and logs into ranked, actionable insights.
Why it matters

A focused, KPI-tied plan turns AI from maintenance burden into measurable P&L impact.

Partner With Us

Our engagement model is collaborative and transparent.

  • Discovery workshop: align on goals, constraints, and success metrics.
  • Pilot build: ship one production workflow with evals, dashboards, and admin controls.
  • Scale-up: expand coverage, harden SSO, billing, and governance, and train your team to own it.
Why it matters

Clear stages and shared dashboards keep stakeholders aligned and de-risk budget, governance, and rollout.

delivery loop

We ship in a loop that stays accountable to the P&L.

01diagnose

Frame the decision, data reality, and failure modes with the operators.

02design

Select the smallest architecture that can win; prefer observable, testable parts.

03deploy

Ship a production slice with evals, dashboards, and human override.

04compound

Expand coverage, prune complexity, and tune on live signals.

technology without the wall of text

Clear loops you can point at.

We keep the architecture visual: observe → evaluate → act → audit. You see every handoff and safeguard.

one strong CTA

Book a strategy session. Bring a messy workflow; leave with a plan.

We will map the decision, identify the fattest tails, and propose a first slice with KPIs, evals, and safeguards. No sales theater.

what happens on the call
  • Pick one workflow and define the primary decision + guardrails.
  • Outline the first production slice, data paths, and rollout plan.
  • Agree on KPIs, evals, and how we will prove lift.
