An AI Consultancy

AI for the codebase you already have.

We audit the small, critical codebases that non-software teams depend on, then retrofit them so AI can do useful work inside them. We stay until your team can run the loop on their own.

Who we work with

Small teams that aren't software companies but depend on software anyway.

You inherited a codebase. It's not your business, but your business now runs on it. The person who wrote it moved on. You know AI could help. You don't have the quarter of meetings to figure out how.

Engineering firms

In-house calculators, report generators, and analysis tools that your engineers use daily but nobody maintains.

  • Civil
  • Mechanical
  • Electrical
  • Structural

Specialty consultancies

Custom models, pricing tools, and client deliverables that started as spreadsheets and outgrew them.

  • Actuarial
  • Environmental
  • Biotech
  • Policy

Research & in-house teams

Data pipelines, experiment runners, and one-off scripts that quietly became infrastructure.

  • Labs
  • Nonprofits
  • Operations
  • Finance
Services

What we deliver.

Three engagements, in the order they usually happen. Most teams start with the diagnostic and end up on the retainer.

2 weeks

Codebase audit

We read every line that matters. You get a written report with an AI-readiness score, a critical-path map, and a prioritized list of what to do next.

  • Dependency + dead-code pass
  • Structural documentation you actually have
  • AI-readiness score across eight dimensions
  • Prioritized remediation plan
4–6 weeks

AI enablement

We retrofit the repo for agents. Structured memory, good prompts, role-specific workflows — and we train each seat until it sticks.

  • Codebase memory + rules configured
  • Claude Code / Cursor / agent config checked in
  • Playbooks for PMs, engineers, and reviewers
  • Hands-on workshops, role by role
Ongoing

Retained advisory

After handoff, we stay reachable at a reduced rate. Office hours, PR review on agent-generated changes, and triage when a new model changes the job.

  • Weekly office hours
  • Review queue for AI-generated PRs
  • Model-change triage & migration
  • Month-to-month, cancel anytime
Approach

Diagnose. Build. Partner.

We don't hand you a slide deck and leave. The engagement is shaped so your team owns the loop by the end.

  1. Week 1–2

    Diagnose

    We read the code, interview the team, and map how work actually moves through the repo. You get a written report — what's there, what's missing, and what AI can do with it today.

  2. Week 3–8

    Build & teach

    We retrofit the repo for agents, check in the config and prompts, and sit with each seat until they can drive the new loop themselves. No black boxes — everything we add is yours.

  3. Month 3+

    Partnership

    Month-to-month retainer at a reduced rate. Weekly office hours, PR review on agent-authored changes, and someone on call when a model update changes the job.

Pricing

Transparent, fixed-scope.

No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. Scope and price are agreed up front. The retainer is month-to-month — leave when you don't need us.

Diagnostic

Two-week read of the codebase and a written report with an AI-readiness score and a prioritized plan. Standalone or credited toward Engagement.

$8k Fixed
  • Full codebase read
  • AI-readiness scorecard

A paragraph is enough. What it does, how old it is, who maintains it, and what you wish it did. We'll reply within a day with either a meeting slot or a polite referral.
