How We Work
Six steps from first conversation to full handoff. Every engagement follows this process. No ambiguity about what happens next, what it costs, or what you get.
From Intake to Handoff
Intake
30-minute call. We understand your problem, assess feasibility, and determine if we're the right fit. If the problem isn't a good match for what we do, we'll say so. No cost, no commitment.
Scope
Written scope document with deliverables, timeline, and success criteria. Shared before any money changes hands. You know exactly what you're getting, when you're getting it, and how we'll measure whether it worked.
Build
Sprint-based execution. You get access to progress throughout. We build with your data, not synthetic demos. If something changes mid-build, we address it in the next sprint review rather than letting it compound.
Review
You evaluate the working system against the agreed criteria. We iterate until it meets the bar. This is a structured review against the success metrics defined in the scope document, not a subjective demo.
Handoff
Source code, documentation, deployment guide. Your team can run the system without us. We walk through the architecture, explain the decisions, and make sure your people are equipped to maintain it.
Support
Post-engagement support window. 30 days for Tier 1 and Tier 2 engagements, 90 days for Tier 3. Covers bug fixes, clarifications, and deployment assistance. After the window, you're self-sufficient.
What "Finished" Means
Every engagement ends with: working code you own, documentation your team can follow, and a deployment path that doesn't depend on us. If the system doesn't meet the agreed success criteria, you don't pay for the final milestone.
Technology Preferences
We use tools that are proven, maintainable, and appropriate for the problem. No stack loyalty -- just what works.
| Domain | Approach |
|---|---|
| ML / Data Pipelines | Python (scikit-learn, PyTorch, pandas). Production-grade, well-documented, easy for your team to extend. |
| Rapid Prototyping | Streamlit, Gradio. Working interfaces in hours, not weeks. Good enough for stakeholder evaluation and field testing. |
| Edge Deployment | Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson, embedded Linux. Models optimized for inference on constrained hardware. |
| Infrastructure | Docker and container-ready architectures. Reproducible builds, portable across environments. |
| Integration | REST APIs, existing enterprise stacks, legacy system adapters. We work with what you already have. |

The intake call is 30 minutes, free, and commits you to nothing. We'll tell you honestly whether your problem is something we can solve.
