Defense
Physical AI and employable agents for constrained, high-stakes environments.
Day One is the demo that wows everyone. Day Two is the hard part: getting AI to actually work inside your real business. We're like a building contractor for AI: we assemble a custom system from proven tools, install it in your environment, and stay on.
Why now
Day One is getting easier. Day Two is still hard. Cheaper development gives you unprecedented customization, but integration and deployment were never a vibe-coding problem.

Running in Fortune 500 manufacturing environments today.
Active partnership tracks with core model and infrastructure providers.
Enterprise AI deployment in high tech and manufacturing over 10+ years.
Generic SaaS misses your proprietary workflows. Frontier platforms assume your data flows into their ecosystem. DIY creates tech debt and security exposure. Integrators are slow, expensive, and billed by the hour. Here's what we do differently.
Pre-built components. Faster delivery, lower cost.
Pay for outcomes. Secure, cost-effective, built for you.
You own the system. No lock-in, ever.
Three working habits we bring to most engagements. They're how we think about Day Two, not a fixed checklist.
A paid, one-week discovery sprint. We define the outcome, map the systems involved, and propose the delivery path: sprint track or SOW. You leave with a clear proposal either way.
Sprint track: 2-week delivery sprints, each with a defined output. SOW track: for broader, multi-system scope, fixed price, milestones agreed before we start.
Ongoing support scoped during the engagement, not bolted on after. Monitoring, retraining, evolution, built into the plan from day one.
We build for production, not for the slide deck. Day Two is baked in from day one.
Day Two, designed inEvery engagement assembles from components we've already built, tested, and deployed. Faster time to production. No reinventing the stack.
Multi-agent, multi-provider orchestration harness.
Agent policy enforcement: cost, control, and guardrails near the source.
Context harvester, extracts and routes signal from unstructured sources.
Codebase intelligence and AI-readiness analysis. Hosted at promptforce.ai.
Model routing and output-shaping layer.
Each engagement starts with the outcome you're after, and aims at a system that helps produce it, in your environment, on your stack, against your data.
Vision, robotics, and automation for cost-of-quality problems.
Hybrid inference and cost-to-serve, engineered not guessed.
Agents with cost controls and guardrails, not just capability.
We work directly with the people on the hook for the result, building together with the team who lives with the outcome every day after.
Physical AI and employable agents for constrained, high-stakes environments.
Vision inspection and agentic BI on the shop floor.
Compliance visibility and agents with guardrails built in.
Hybrid inference and cost-controlled agent deployment.
Live demos of what we build. Try them.
Two bottles, same size, both painted solid. One is full of heavy bits, one is empty. A kid picked them up and answered in about a second. The camera said SINK for both: the answer is inside the bottle, where a photo cannot reach.
The tactile gripper got both right. It measured 3.2 mm of give on a 23.9 mm bottle. Give means air, and air floats. Neither half gets there alone: the gripper needs the camera to tell it how wide to open. Vision has had twenty years of attention. Touch this good is new, and it was the half that was missing.

We don't list packages or per-seat tiers. Every engagement is scoped against the specific outcome you're trying to reach, the systems involved, and the shape of the team we'll work with. Pricing follows from that, discussed openly and agreed before we start.
Discovery starts with a Scope WeekOne week, fixed scope. We map the outcome, the systems, and the delivery path. You get a clear proposal regardless of whether we proceed.
Sprint track: scoped deliverables on a 2-week cadence. SOW track: fixed price, milestone-based, agreed upfront for broader scope.
What the system needs after launch, monitoring, retraining, evolution, is scoped during the engagement, not negotiated after you depend on it.
Tell us the outcome you're trying to produce. We'll read it, think on it, and come back with what a real conversation would look like.
