Background-IP and foreground-IP clauses non-negotiable. Signed before discovery day.
We use Claude, autonomous agents, and 3D printing to solve real workplace problems for small fleets, marine ops, auto repair, and specialty manufacturers. We augment workers — never replace them.
Every engagement runs on the same playbook. These aren't marketing claims — they're the rules our contract templates enforce.
AI handles the repetitive part of someone's job so they can focus on the work that needs human judgment. We won't propose a solution that targets headcount reduction.
No prepackaged product to push. Every engagement starts by sitting with your team for a day and listening to where the friction actually is.
The deliverable isn't a one-off script. It's a tested AI workflow plus the runbook to operate it — so the value compounds long after our engagement ends.
Base retainer covers our operating costs. Bonus tied to documented savings aligns our incentives with yours. Pure savings-based deals are rejected — measurement integrity isn't enforceable as a one-person LLC.
Hybrid is the default. Savings-based is offered only when an existing customer has a documented baseline already. Floor rate of $75/hr applies in all cases.
You pay a percentage of measured savings. Available only to customers with documented baselines.
Fixed monthly retainer. Predictable cost. Predictable delivery cadence.
Lower base + 10% of documented savings. Most engagements default here.
Verticals where AI agents + 3D printing solve real recurring pain. Engagements are evening / weekend delivery; daytime availability is not promised.
Dispatch automation, parts lookup, vendor scheduling, custom 3D-printed jigs and brackets. Non-safety-critical only.
Crew scheduling, parts logging, inspection paperwork. Steering, propulsion, and life-safety systems are out of scope.
Estimate generation, customer follow-up, parts cross-reference, inventory reorder rules. Local-first AI keeps customer data in your shop.
Quote workflows, drawing-to-print pipelines, structural sanity-checks, branded part traceability. Reuse our parametric library where it fits.
Tenant communication, maintenance triage, vendor coordination, document generation. Multi-property dashboards built on the Nexum stack.
Spec-to-print: send a drawing or a photo, receive a parametric design with structural sanity-check, FEA-lite report, and branded traceable parts.
There are categories of work that conflict with our risk profile as a small LLC without specialized professional liability coverage. We decline these on the first call — not because the work isn't valuable, but because we're not the right firm to do it.
If your project falls into any of these, we will refer you to firms equipped for them rather than take the engagement.
A standard engagement runs four phases over a quarter. AI agents work through the night so the customer-facing meetings stay short.
One day on-site. Watch the work, document the friction, identify the highest-leverage AI intervention. No-cost discovery.
Agents draft the workflow. We deliver a working prototype in 30 days. SOW signed before any work that costs the customer money.
We install the workflow on customer hardware where possible. Train the team. Document the runbook. Customer accepts before invoicing begins.
Saved hours, errors avoided, downtime prevented — measured against the agreed baseline. Drives the savings-bonus calculation in hybrid contracts.
Standard deliverable bundle. Templates are pre-drafted; we adapt to the engagement rather than re-inventing each time.
Background-IP and foreground-IP clauses non-negotiable. Signed before discovery day.
One MSA covers ongoing engagements; SOWs reference it without re-negotiating terms each round.
Per-project scope, milestones, acceptance criteria, and pricing model. Three SOW variants for the three pricing options.
Baseline numbers, after-state metrics, who collects them, how disputes are resolved. Built into the SOW from day one.
Within 30 days. Tested on real customer data. Ready for installation, not a slide deck.
Plain-language operating instructions for the team. How to start it, stop it, troubleshoot it, hand it off.
After installation, a written summary of what was deployed and what changed — yours to keep, ours to anonymize for portfolio (with your approval).
If a free pilot generates recurring value, a revenue-share clause activates. No perpetual free work — bounded as a one-time origin story.
We'll tell you in 48 hours whether AI can fix it — and which of the three pricing options fits. No-cost discovery day if we proceed.
