Why Consulting + Products?

Our consulting work is informed by hands-on experience building and validating AI-powered products. This combination helps us understand both the technical challenges and business realities our clients face.

Consulting (Primary)

Systematic AI implementations for small firms and growth companies—with clear pricing, measured outcomes, and practical solutions that your team can own.

Product Experiments

Exploratory projects that help us understand AI adoption challenges, validation methodologies, and what it takes to build successful AI-powered products.

The Connection

Lessons from product experiments directly inform our consulting work—because we've lived the same challenges our clients face when adopting AI.
