AI Inside the Tools You Use
AI working inside the tools your team already uses — each connection accepted only after it meets its written target.
Planning estimate from comparable scope. Your Design quote fixes the date and the price, and the date is what the statement of work commits to.
START WITH DESIGN — $20K, CREDITED TO THIS BUILDThe written plan comes first — and the $750 credits toward Design or any Build for 90 days.
This system lives in your infrastructure, so the guarantee anchors to acceptance: cancel any time before you accept against the written targets and every dollar comes back — the system is withdrawn, the license never vests. Acceptance is your signature, or a 15-business-day evaluation window closing without a rejection that names a missed target.
- 01Pay securely by card
- 02Pick a time that works
- 03Your written plan in a few days
- 01AI that works across your tools, with real users — and where the rules require it, proven first on safe stand-in data
- 02The targets it must meet, written down before work starts
- 03A review against those targets — you accept it, and own it, only once it passes
- 0460 days of Operate included — run by the person who built it
- 05The source code, documentation, and a run guide when you accept
AI that works across the tools your team already uses — and that the people who use it accept, against written targets. Because it connects so many of your tools, it has to live inside your own network, so you accept it, and own it, only once it meets those targets. Where your data is sensitive, the targets are first proven on safe, stand-in data, then checked against your real data after you accept. The first 60 days of running it are included, done by the same person who built it.
BUILT FOR CTO or VP Engineering whose workflow touches several tools and user groups — where connecting them, not the AI model, is the hard part.
WHEN YOU NEED THIS
- The workflow crosses two or more of your core tools
- Real users have to work with the output daily
- Data lives where it must stay — the work comes to the data
- An earlier contained build proved the case; now it has to connect
NOT FOR YOU IF
- One contained workflow — Tier I costs less
- You can't give access to the tools — there is nothing to connect
- No written targets both sides would sign
The workflow that crosses your tools stops being everyone's part-time job — one connected piece of software, run for its first 60 days by the person who built it.
AI without an owner quietly gets worse — it drifts off the mark, costs creep, failures go silent. Every Build includes its Operate period, 30–90 days by tier, run by the person who built it — and it continues past that only if you say yes.
Includes 60 days of Operate I — run by the person who built it.
How many of these run at once.
- 01One Build at a time. Your proposal comes back with a committed start date, and if the slot is taken you find out before you sign rather than after.
- 02Operate engagements run concurrently and the number is capped, so the person accountable for your live system is not quietly carrying five others. Ask how many are running before you sign and you get the count, not a reassurance.
- 03Over capacity, you go on a waitlist with a committed date. Never a silent queue, and never a yes we cannot keep.
Yes, it is one person. Here is what that costs you, and what it buys you.
You are not worried about documentation. You are worried about month four of a six-figure build, or month fourteen of a retainer, and one person who stops answering. That is the right thing to worry about, and reassurance is not an answer to it. Structure is.
What it costs you
A team of forty has redundancy you do not get here. We are not going to pretend otherwise — it is the one row in the comparison below that an agency wins outright.
What we do about it
- Everything lives in your repository from day oneCode, runbook, and the architecture record land in a repository you own, continuously — not as a handover event at the end. There is no version of this where the work is trapped somewhere you cannot reach.
- Credentials live in your secret storeNever in a repository, ours or yours. You grant access scoped to the statement of work and you revoke it whenever you decide to.
- No standby engineer on retainer — and we will not pretend otherwiseSome firms answer this with a named successor kept on standby. We do not have one, and inventing one would be exactly the kind of reassurance this section refuses to give you. The structural answer is the one above: because the repository, the runbook and the credentials are already yours, whoever picks the work up — your own team, or someone you hire — starts from a written system rather than an excavation. That is a difference you can check in month one instead of discovering in month fourteen.
- An unavailability clause with teethIf ML LABS goes non-responsive for five consecutive business days, Operate fees stop and prorate to that date. You are not paying for silence, and the handover package is already in your hands because it always was.
What it buys you
No account team, no handoffs, no context reset, and nobody learning your system on your budget. The person who scoped it is the person who built it and the person who answers when it breaks. That is not available at forty engineers, at any price.
