Custom AI Products
Full-stack AI product development — backends in Rust or Python, typed APIs, and dashboards your team actually opens. We work in week-long iterations against a written contract of done, with observability, audit, and billing wired in from day one.
Ideal for: Founders and teams who need a real, shippable AI product — not a prototype — built by people who have shipped production software for twenty years.
What's included
- 0→1 builds in focused 6–16 week sprints
- Backends in Rust or Python, typed APIs, and a dashboard your team actually opens
- Observability, audit logging, and billing wired in from day one
- A shipped surface every week against a written contract of done
- Hand-off documentation an engineer can actually read
How we work
Every engagement starts with a two-week paid review and a one-page contract of done — scope, evals, latency budget, and the bill, with no surprises to either side. We ship a working surface every week, write things down, and hand off runbooks and evaluation harnesses your team can run without us. If a phase isn't delivering, we say so on a Friday.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to build a custom AI product?
Most 0→1 engagements run 6–16 weeks. We ship a working surface every week against a written contract of done, so you see progress continuously rather than waiting for one big reveal.
