Our work

Software we've built and run

We only show work we can publish. No AI project is cleared for publication yet, so here is client software we built and a product we run ourselves.

  • Client · FinTech / Payments

    GatimaanPayments

    The problem
    Payment workflows had to work together in one clear, reliable product.
    What we built
    Product features, user-facing workflows and supporting backend functionality for the platform.

  • Built and run by us · SaaS platform

    WA Console

    The problem
    Teams on the WhatsApp Business API juggle accounts, numbers, templates and webhooks across separate tools.
    What we built
    One console for accounts, numbers, templates and messaging, with a developer API, webhooks and event monitoring.

How it works

From one process to AI in production

  1. 1

    Assess

    We look at the task, the data and your systems, and agree how time or cost saved will be measured.

  2. 2

    Prototype

    We test the approach on real examples from your business before building it out.

  3. 3

    Build

    Connected to your software, users and permissions, and tested against a set of real questions.

  4. 4

    Run

    Deployed with monitoring, logging and cost controls, then improved as usage grows.

Our promises

AI you can trust with real work

Four commitments in every project, in writing.

  • Security and data privacy.

    Only the data a task needs reaches a model, users only see answers from data they may see, and API keys never sit in client code.

  • People stay in control.

    Our agents are not fully autonomous by default. Actions that matter wait for a person to approve, and every step is logged.

  • Fixed price for the build.

    Development is quoted in writing. We estimate model usage up front and track it, so running costs are visible.

  • Measured, not assumed.

    We agree what success means, test against real examples before launch and monitor quality after it.

Built with OpenAI and Anthropic models (directly, or through Amazon Bedrock or Azure AI Foundry), LangChain, pgvector, Python and Node.js, on AWS, Google Cloud or Azure.

FAQ

Questions before you start

How much does an AI project cost?

AI integration starts from $1,000 (₹85,000 in India), chatbots and assistants from $1,500 (₹1.25 lakh in India), business automation from $1,500 (₹1.25 lakh in India), RAG knowledge systems from $2,500 (₹2 lakh in India), AI agents from $3,000 (₹2.5 lakh in India) and custom AI products from $5,000 (₹4 lakh in India). A paid discovery and assessment starts from $250 (₹20,000 in India). Model and API usage and infrastructure are billed separately.

What are the ongoing costs?

Model and API usage, billed by the provider based on volume; hosting; and optional maintenance from $150/month (quoted in rupees in India). We estimate usage costs up front and add tracking so there are no surprises.

Is our data safe, and is it used to train AI models?

Only the data a task needs is sent to a model, access rules decide what each user’s answers can draw on, and every model call is logged. Training depends on the provider and plan: business API terms from major providers generally exclude API data from training by default, but terms change, so we review them with you before any data is sent. Your regulatory obligations remain yours; we build to support them.

Will an AI agent act on its own?

Only as far as you decide. Our agents are not fully autonomous by default: they work within defined limits, log every step, and wait for a person to approve actions that matter. How much an agent may do alone is agreed with you, per action.

How do you keep AI answers accurate?

By grounding answers in your data, showing sources, testing against a set of real questions before launch, and monitoring quality afterwards. No AI system is right every time, so we design for review where mistakes would matter.

Can you add AI to our existing software, CRM or ERP?

Yes. Most of our AI work is added to existing websites, web applications and SaaS products, behind your own backend so your permissions and data rules still apply. CRMs and ERPs connect through their APIs, with approval where a change matters.

Which AI models do you use? Do you train our own?

Most often models from OpenAI and Anthropic — directly, or through Amazon Bedrock or Azure AI Foundry inside your own cloud account — chosen per task on quality, cost and data requirements. Training a custom model is rarely needed; established models plus your data through retrieval are faster and cheaper.

What if AI is not the right fix?

Then we say so. Many workflows need rules and integrations rather than AI, which are cheaper and fully predictable. We automate with whichever fits and use AI only for the steps that need reading, judgement or language.
