Services01AI & Agentic Systems

Software that thinks, and acts on its own.

We build AI agents and LLM-backed workflows that do real work in your business. Not demos that impress in a meeting and stall the moment someone tries to rely on them.

The problem

Most AI projects never leave the sandbox.

Everyone has a chatbot pilot. Almost nobody has an agent doing real work against real systems, day after day, without someone babysitting it.

The gap isn’t the model. It’s everything around the model: the tool access, the guardrails, the monitoring, the plain engineering discipline that turns a clever demo into something you can bet a process on.

We close that gap. We build the agent and the production scaffolding around it, so it ships and stays shipped.

What we build

Six ways we put AI to work in your business.

Autonomous agents

Agents that execute multi-step work against your actual tools: your APIs, your databases, your systems of record. Not a chatbot that answers questions. Something that does the task.

LLM-backed workflows

Document processing, intake, routing, drafting. The back-office work that currently eats human hours, automated end to end and handed off cleanly when it needs a human.

Retrieval over your own data

RAG systems and grounded knowledge assistants built on your documents. The answers come from what you actually know, not the model’s best guess.

AI embedded in what you already run

We put the intelligence inside your CRM, your ERP, the tools your team already opens every day. Not a separate app they have to remember exists.

Evaluation, guardrails & monitoring

The unglamorous part that makes an agent reliable instead of a liability: test suites, failure modes handled on purpose, and monitoring that tells you when it drifts.

Model strategy

We build across Claude, Gemini, GPT, and more, and pick the right one for each job. We’re pragmatic about models, not loyal to a vendor.

How we work

Why this holds up once it’s live.

We build the system that works best for you

We won’t force Hermes when a custom agent may work. We take a look at your actual business flow and build what works best with deep knowledge.

An AI partner that you can count on

You get an actual agent doing work in your business, not a slide deck or a proof of concept. We work on retainer, billed to the minute, and we stay on long after it ships.

We were building software long before the hype

AI is the newest tool in our kit. Our agentic AI has the engineering discipline underneath that is older than the hype cycle.

Common questions

Answers, before you even ask.

What does it cost to build an AI agent?

There’s no published tier — every build is scoped to the work. We start with discovery so the outcome is clear, then send an estimate that reflects what your agent actually needs. Ongoing work runs on retainer, billed to the minute. And if a simpler workflow would solve the problem for less, we’ll tell you that first.

How is an AI agent different from a chatbot?

A chatbot answers questions. An agent does the task: it executes multi-step work against your actual systems — your APIs, your databases, your CRM — and hands off cleanly to a human when it should. We build the agent plus the production scaffolding around it: tool access, guardrails, and monitoring, so you can bet a process on it.

Will AI work with the software we already run?

Yes — that’s usually the point. We embed the intelligence inside the tools your team already opens every day: your CRM, your ERP, your systems of record. We’ve been building software and data integrations since long before the AI hype cycle, so wiring a model into an existing stack is familiar ground.

Which AI models do you build with?

We build across Claude, Gemini, GPT, and more, and pick the right model for each job. We’re pragmatic about models, not loyal to a vendor. The model is one component — the engineering around it is what makes the system reliable, and it’s built so a better model can be swapped in when one ships.

How do you keep an AI agent from making mistakes?

With the unglamorous engineering that turns a demo into something dependable: evaluation suites that test the agent before it touches real work, guardrails that constrain what it’s allowed to do, failure modes handled on purpose, and monitoring that tells you when it drifts. Work that needs human judgment gets handed to a human.

Our AI pilot stalled. Can you get it into production?

That’s the most common way companies find this service. The gap usually isn’t the model — it’s everything around the model: tool access, guardrails, monitoring, and plain engineering discipline. We assess what your pilot proved, then build the production scaffolding it was missing, so it ships and stays shipped.
