AI Engineering & Automation Consultancy

Where Technology
Meets Magic.

Bespoke AI engineering for teams that have outgrown templates. Two senior engineers — thirteen years combined — forging the systems, agents, and infrastructure your product actually needs.

What We Forge

Four disciplines, engineered in-house — no subcontractors, no handoffs.

Every engagement is staffed by a founder. We keep our craft deep and our surface area small on purpose.
01 / Intelligence

AI Integrations & LLM Apps

Production-grade agentic systems, RAG pipelines, evals, and inference infra. Claude, GPT, open models — tuned to your domain.

Stack — Claude · LangGraph · pgvector · Modal
02 / Automation

Automation & Agents

Headless workflows that replace toil — document pipelines, internal copilots, ops bots, data enrichment at scale.

Stack — Temporal · n8n · MCP · Playwright
03 / Product

Web & Mobile Products

Full-stack apps with craft: Next.js, React Native, Swift. Shipped, not prototyped — instrumented, tested, maintained.

Stack — Next.js · Expo · Swift · Postgres
04 / On-Chain

Blockchain Systems

DeFi protocols, on-chain trading infra, custody flows, L2 integrations. Audited-grade code with economic reasoning baked in.

Stack — Solidity · Foundry · Viem · Anchor
The Artificer's Approach

Four stages. Tight feedback loops. A build log you can actually read.

Most engagements run 6–14 weeks. We scope in thin slices and ship something usable in the first fortnight.
Stage 01

Discover

Constraint mapping, data audits, and a first-principles read of what you're really trying to build.

Stage 02

Architect

A written technical plan, spike prototypes, and the honest trade-offs before a single production line lands.

Stage 03

Forge

Focused build sprints, weekly demos, instrumentation from day one. You see the anvil strikes, not just the sword.

Stage 04

Elevate

Handoff, runbooks, evals, monitoring. We stay on retainer for the parts that matter — or we leave clean.

Where We Work

Deep domain, not a rolodex. We go narrow so we can go far.

Our bench leans heavily into finance-adjacent systems — fintech rails, DeFi protocols, and live crypto trading infrastructure — where latency, correctness, and economic reasoning share a table.

Outside of finance we take on B2B SaaS with real AI substance — data platforms, internal tooling, developer-facing products. We decline work where the AI is a marketing veneer.

The Workshop

Two principals. Every line of code writes past one of them.

We stay a two-person shop by design. If a project needs more hands, we tell you — and we bring trusted collaborators, not a bench of juniors.

Principal One

Founding Engineer · 9 yrs

Distributed systems by training. Spent the last four years in applied ML infra — inference gateways, eval harnesses, agent runtimes. Leads architecture and AI engagements.

LLM SYSTEMSPYTHON / GOPOSTGRESEX-BIGCO

Principal Two

Founding Engineer · 4 yrs

Full-stack and on-chain. Shipped DeFi trading infra and mobile products at early-stage crypto teams. Leads product builds, wallets, and smart-contract work.
