Ongoing · The Destination of Every Build
AI systems don't stay working on their own.
Models get deprecated, data drifts, costs creep, and quality decays quietly — industry surveys find roughly 60% of companies deploying AI can't show measurable improvement, mostly because nobody is measuring. AI Operations is the fix: we monitor, evaluate, and tune your system every week, and send you a monthly report with the numbers against your baseline.
Monthly Report · Baseline vs. Actual

The Terms We'd Want as a Buyer
Retainers usually mean lock-in. Ours means the opposite.
Honest SLA
Next-business-day incident response, in writing. We're a boutique and we say so — no fake 24/7 promise that dies on the first Saturday alert.
No lock-in, by design
Dashboards, eval suites, and infrastructure code all live in your accounts. If you leave, everything stays with you and keeps working.
Only systems we know
We operate systems we built — or audited first. The Production Readiness Audit is the on-ramp for systems built by someone else, and its fee is credited against your first quarter.
The honest comparison
Even the top tier runs about a third of the loaded cost of one senior AI hire — and it comes with a bench, not a single point of failure.
Why this layer matters: surveys of 2,000 C-suite leaders found 95% now trust AI with strategic work — while only about half have any formal AI governance. The gap between those two numbers is where systems fail quietly. See how the Flight Recorder closes it
Running AI without a monthly number? Let's fix that.
If we built your system, operations starts immediately. If someone else did, start with the Production Readiness Audit — the fee counts toward your first quarter.
