Files, tools, reports, inbox, leads, services, logs. All connected into a queryable map before a single agent is deployed.

Control planes for AI agents.
Not slideware.
Policy gates, immutable audit, eval harnesses, and budget ceilings. The operating layer that takes blocked Claude and agent initiatives to production.
Agents are downstream of workflow intelligence. Connect the source systems first: files, tools, reports, inbox, leads, services, logs. Then the agents have something real to read.

The operating layer, not the demo layer
Ship agents with guardrails →
Policy gates, per-caller budgets, and immutable audit are wired into every tool call. Not bolted on after review.
Prove it with telemetry →
Every claim comes with a log, a cost line, and a rollback path. Logs over vibes. Production over theater.
How an engagement moves
1
Workflow Intelligence Audit
Seven days. Full source-system inventory, live workflow map, and a written rescue plan with cost and risk lines. $5,000, fixed.
2
Wire the operating layer
Policy gates, immutable audit, budget ceilings, and eval harnesses wired end-to-end. Not glued on top of an unverified stack.
3
Ship into production
Real users, real load, real telemetry. Every tool call is logged, every model call is priced, every failure is replayable.
4
Hand it off
Runbooks, dashboards, and an internal owner. The point of the engagement is that your team keeps operating it after we're gone.
By the numbers
Primary-source metrics. No marketing estimates.
OpenAI usage dashboard, Anthropic Academy, Lovable activity log, GitHub graph, LinkedIn. Auditable on request.

Turned a blocked Claude initiative into production
We'd been stuck for two quarters trying to get Claude Code past legal. Alex wired the policy gates and audit trail, and the same initiative was in production inside a month.

Stripe Connect V1 → V2 Migration
Fintech marketplace
4 weeks
Dual-API coexistence with zero payment failures during transition.
Core API migration in 14 days; full rollout in 4 weeks. Dual-webhook coexistence let V1 and V2 endpoints operate simultaneously during merchant-by-merchant migration, with feature flags routing traffic per merchant ID.
MLS Data Integration
Real estate platform
3-day sprint
LLM data-mapping agents collapsed a 12-week integration timeline.
Claude Code agents automated schema alignment across 47 disparate MLS data formats and generated unified transformation logic. Human review handled the ~3% of edge-case listings. Roughly 90% reduction in manual data entry.
Auth + MVP Scaffold
B2B SaaS startup
3 days
JWT + Postgres RLS scaffolding deployed, ready for feature development.
Auth, RBAC, and Row Level Security enforcing tenant isolation from day one. Infrastructure only — no business logic. Client engineering team built features on top over the next six weeks.
OSINT Intelligence Platform
Security consultancy
58 days · Phase 1
Multi-source intelligence aggregation with analyst dashboard.
Aggregates 12 public intelligence sources with LLM-powered entity extraction and relationship mapping. Analyst dashboard provides threat timeline visualization and exports. Redis pub/sub drives real-time updates.

110-agent SMB finance platform: invoices, reconciliation, compliance.
OpenClaw-native platform built on Bun + Hono with a React dashboard and Postgres RLS. Agents operate in specialized clusters — intake, validation, reconciliation, reporting, and compliance.

Single runs utilizing up to 50 concurrent worker nodes.
Multi-agent orchestrator: one CEO agent (LangGraph) delegates to ten sub-orchestrators (Claude Agent SDK), each managing five specialized workers across six business layers.
