An independent engineering studio

We build the unglamorous middle. The part that actually runs.

AI/LLM systems, retrieval pipelines, integrations, and the web frontends that hold it all together. We work between the demo and the dashboard, on the part that has to run on Tuesday morning.

Small surface, real shipping. The person you talk to is the person writing the code.

We rescue RAG implementations that aren't working.

/01 Practice 04 areas

What we build.

[01] LLM applications Chat surfaces, tool-using agents, structured extraction, evaluation harnesses. Claude, GPT, open weights. Picked for the job, not the brochure.
[02] Retrieval & search Document ingestion, embeddings, hybrid retrieval, chunking that survives contact with messy data. RAG that holds up under audit.
[03] Integrations & pipelines APIs, webhooks, ETL, internal tooling. The plumbing between SaaS systems that nobody puts on a keynote slide.
[04] Web & backend Marketing pages, dashboards, internal apps. PHP, Laravel, Node, Python. Code that's still readable a year later.
/02 Method how we work

No layered account management.

Direct engagements. Most projects start with a one-page statement of work (a problem, a deliverable, a date) and end with something running in production that you understand and own.

We say no more than yes. Sometimes the thing should not be built. Sometimes the off-the-shelf tool is the right call. The work we keep is work where careful engineering moves the needle.

Two shapes: fixed-scope projects for defined problems, and monthly retainers for teams that need a senior engineer on call.
