Last-mile AI implementation

Anyone
can build it.
We ship it.

AI tools are everywhere. Vibe coding gets you started. But there's a gap between a working demo and a production system your business runs on daily. That gap is what we close.

80%

of AI projects never reach production. The gap isn't capability, it's the last mile between a working demo and something your business can actually rely on every day.

01 /
"I built something. It never shipped."
Ran great in the demo. Breaks with real data and users. Never made it past your laptop.
02 /
Integrations that fall apart under load.
Webhooks, authentication, rate limits, error handling — the prototype skipped all of it. Production can't.
03 /
No one to call when it breaks at 11pm.
Who owns it? Who fixes it? Who trains your team on it?
04 /
Claude for Small Business installed, unused.
Powerful workflows. Nobody planned or configured them for how your business actually runs.
05 /
Automations that never got turned on.
Follow-ups, reminders, reactivation — all the tools support it. The setup never happened.

Scope & Blueprint
Week 1

We define done
before we start.

Exact deliverables. What it connects to. What success looks like. Fixed scope, fixed price before a single line of code is written. No surprises.

Discovery call + technical audit
Easy to follow integration map + data flow diagram
Fixed-scope proposal with clear deliverables
Weeks 2–4

Production code.
Not a prototype.

We build it, connect it to your real systems, and get it running in production. Error handling, authentication, monitoring — all the unglamorous work that makes AI reliable at 2am.

Production deployment on your infrastructure
Real API integrations with error handling
Monitoring + alerting configured
You own it

Keys handed over.
Nothing held back.

The code is yours. The credentials are yours. We write the docs, train your team, and stay available as a monthly advisor if you want. Zero lock-in.

Full codebase + credentials transfer

I build AI systems that make it to production. I was part of the team at Noodle that built Faye — an AI agent that tells college students their real cost of attendance before they apply. The New York Times called it the first tool of its kind in higher education. Forbes covered the shift it's driving in admissions.

Before that, over 10 years integrating and shipping AI-powered products at fintech and edtech companies. Think onboarding sequences, automated loan matching, workflows that people actually used. Now I take that same execution to small business owners who need AI that works in production, not just in demos.
