Methodology

Three engagements. Three deliverables. You own the output.

We don’t do open-ended retainers. Each engagement is a discrete piece of work with a defined deliverable. You decide whether to proceed to the next one.

01
Diagnostic

A written assessment of where AI sits, what’s exposed, and what’s worth building. Useful on its own. You can stop here.

02
Build

Production AI, single-step or agentic depending on the job, integrated, evaluated, owned by your team. Not a pilot. Not a POC.

03
Handoff

Your team operates the workflow. We document, train, step away. Optional ongoing only when you actually want it.

01. Diagnostic

What you walk away with

A written report you can act on, internally, with or without us. The diagnostic is complete in itself. It surfaces where AI sits, what’s exposed under the AI Act, and what’s worth automating.

02. Build

What you walk away with

Production AI, running in your infrastructure, integrated with your existing tools, documented, evaluated. The shape calibrated to the work, single-step automation where that’s right, agentic orchestration where it’s warranted. Not a prototype that needs a follow-on engagement to ship. The thing itself.

03. Handoff

What you walk away with

Operational independence. Your team runs the workflow without us. The artefacts are yours: code, prompts, evaluations, runbooks, IP. Ongoing engagement is optional, never assumed.
