Service
A senior AI engineer, embedded in your business.
An experienced AI engineer who owns the architecture, ships the system and hands it over. Less than the cost of a full-time hire, without the hiring cycle.
A senior AI hire can take months to find, months to onboard and a full-time salary to keep. Most companies do not need a full-time team to ship one system.
A freelancer can deliver a task, but someone still has to own the architecture, the integrations and what happens when it breaks in production. That is the role we fill.
What we build
Owns the architecture
Chooses the models, tools and integration pattern, and documents the trade-offs before the build starts.
Builds the system
Works inside your tools and accounts, with working software every two days and tests on real data.
Hands over the keys
Leaves code, infrastructure, prompts and documentation in your name, with a walkthrough for your team.
Stays on call
Monitors what we build, fixes what breaks and adds new automations as the work changes.

Questions about fractional ai engineers
What is a fractional AI engineer?
A senior AI engineer who works with your team on an ongoing basis, owns the architecture and build, and hands over the system. You get the capability without a full-time hire.
How is this different from an AI agency?
Many agencies deliver a prototype or a deck and leave. We take ownership of the system in production, and we hand over the code, accounts and documentation.
How much does it cost?
Ongoing AI engineering starts at $499 per month. Project builds are scoped and quoted separately before work begins.
How long does the first system take?
A scoped first system goes live in 14 days. Larger systems are broken into 14-day increments.
Do we own the code?
Yes. Code, infrastructure, accounts, prompts and documentation are built in your accounts from day one and handed over at launch.
Can you work with our existing team?
Yes. We embed with your team, use your tools and document the system so your engineers can take it in-house.
