Process
Six weeks from kickoff to real traffic.
The same rhythm on every build. You always know what week you are in and what evidence lands at the end of it.
Week 0
Scope
One production outcome, one success metric, access provisioning, and a written eval rubric.
Week 1
Embed
Repo, CI, Slack, standups. A certified engineer opens their first pull request inside seven days.
Week 2
Prototype
A working Claude workflow on your stack against your real data, behind a feature flag.
Weeks 3 to 5
Harden
Tool integration, guardrails, caching, eval gates in CI, cost ceilings, and audit logging.
Week 6
Production
Live on real traffic with tracing, review queue, and quality metrics reporting daily.
Handoff
Transfer
Runbook, eval suite, and pipelines in your repo. Your team trained. IP fully yours.
Outcomes
What changes after a certified team takes over.
62% lower spend
“They rebuilt our prompt layer with caching and structured outputs. Same quality, a fraction of the bill, and now we can actually forecast cost.”
VP Engineering, logistics platform
6 weeks to production
“We had a demo for nine months. A certified engineer embedded on a Monday and we were serving real customers by the end of the quarter.”
CTO, Series B SaaS
94% eval pass rate
“The eval harness is the thing that changed how we work. Model quality became a number in CI instead of an argument in a meeting.”
Head of AI, healthcare payer
