AI Automation & Agentic Delivery
AI automation consulting with a working factory behind it. Fixed prices, measured outcomes, and a go / no-go you can act on — not another deck.
You have a workflow that eats hours you can name, an AI capability you need proven before you budget for it, or a delivery pipeline that should be running with agents in the loop. These are fixed-price, time-boxed engagements run by a studio that operates its own agentic software factory in production and ships local-first AI products people actually buy. Capacity is capped on purpose: one engagement at a time — book the slot.
The offers
Feasibility Read
- The single question blocking your go-decision, scoped tight enough to answer in a week: can this be built, on this stack, inside a sprint?
- A written read on it — the technical risks, the open unknowns, and what would have to be true to proceed
- A clear go / no-go with the reasoning shown, not a verdict you take on faith
- A “go” scopes straight into an AI Capability Sprint — the Read is the cheapest way to buy that certainty first
The first rung — one question, one written answer, one go / no-go.
Ask about the Feasibility Read ›AI Capability Sprint
- One workflow automated or augmented with agentic tooling on your stack
- A measured before/after — hours, error rate, throughput
- A go / no-go recommendation you can take to a budget owner
- Senior pedigree, priced above the $3k–$8k commodity discovery-sprint band
On your stack, with your data, measured honestly.
Ask about the AI Capability Sprint ›Agentic SDLC Enablement
- A Vibrator-pattern issue → PR → review → merge pipeline on your repos
- Human-in-the-loop gates and dashboards, not a black box
- A playbook your team can run without us
- A team walkthrough so it sticks
Nearly zero credible competitors ship with a public reference implementation. This one does.
Ask about the Agentic SDLC Enablement ›Fractional Technical Leadership
- A fractional CTO without the full-time hire — senior technical attention on a standing retainer
- Architecture, review, and hard-call support
- Explicitly the layer that keeps a sprint’s momentum alive
- Capped at two concurrent, so the attention is real
The continuity layer after a sprint.
Ask about the Fractional Technical Leadership ›The factory behind these offers is public: Vibrator, the studio’s open-source agentic SDLC pipeline, runs the studio’s own software with dual review gates and a real-time dashboard — the same pattern the enablement stands up on your repos. The pedigree behind it: 25 years shipping the earliest playable form of a thing, enterprise incident-response leadership at world-event scale, and local-first AI products — Conversation Simulator, Read The Room — shipped as real businesses, not demos.
Receipts, not promises
How it works
Every engagement runs on exit-criteria discipline — a stage doesn’t end until its criterion is met:
- Frame. Which workflow, which stack, what a win measures as, by what date, against what budget band. Exit: a one-paragraph scope you and we both sign.
- Build in the open. Daily-visible progress; the fixed deliverables are the contract. Exit: the workflow executes, or the pipeline runs, end to end.
- Measure. A before/after in hours, error rate, or throughput — evidence, not a deck. Exit: a stakeholder can operate the result themselves.
- Map the next step. What it would take to go from proof to production, honestly. Exit: a build map and a go / no-go you can act on.
Fit / not-fit
This is for you if
- A workflow is eating hours you can name, and you want it automated and measured on your own stack
- Your team is adopting agentic delivery and wants a credible reference implementation, not a webinar
- You need to know in a week whether an AI build is feasible, with the reasoning shown
- You want senior attention at a fixed price — not a bench of juniors on a timesheet
We're probably not your studio if
- You’re shopping for a no-code automation subscription — buy the tool; this door builds and proves outcomes
- You want “an AI strategy” with no workflow, no data, and no decision at the end of it
- You need three engagements running at once; there’s one slot, on purpose
- Your change is org-scale transformation — that routes to the operator directly, and it should
