Professional Services#
11 years delivering sophisticated AI systems across healthcare, finance, and enterprise. We work directly with founders, executives, and technical teams on the problems that actually matter.
Services#
Strategic Assessment — $3,500#
A half-day engagement for founders and executives working through what the shift in software economics means for their business. We score your business across seven defensibility dimensions, identify the exposure, and deliver a prioritized set of moves in writing.
The right entry point if you're asking honest questions about what your company is actually selling.
Fractional CTO — $15,000/month#
Strategic technology leadership on a part-time basis. 10 hours/week of executive-level AI strategy, architecture decisions, and hands-on collaboration with your team. Designed for organizations at strategic inflection points that need experienced technical judgment without a full-time hire.
Production Readiness Review — $10,000 fixed fee#
You built it with AI. Before you go live, raise money, or hand it to an enterprise client, get a professional review. You receive either a signed approval or a prioritized list of what needs to be fixed — from someone who has shipped production ML systems, filed patents for novel architectures, and built at enterprise scale.
Custom AI Development — $500/hour#
When vibe coding isn't enough. We come in when operators have hit a wall, when vibe-coded apps need to scale, or when the problem requires genuine technical depth — custom neural architectures, computer vision, real-time ML systems.
AI Transformation Consulting#
Strategic advisory for C-suite and board-level leaders navigating significant AI-driven organizational change. Vision alignment, architecture strategy, investment prioritization, and change management.
Client Work#
Taxonomy Company → AI Platform#
A professional services company needed to fundamentally change what they were selling as AI reshaped their market. Fractional CTO engagement covered full strategic and technical scope: repositioning, platform architecture, multi-agent system development, and team capability building. Eight months later: complete business model transformation.
Healthcare: Bed Exit Prediction#
Hospital system needed to reduce costly patient fall incidents without adding nursing staff. We built a novel CNN+LSTM architecture for real-time infrared video analysis — detecting preparatory movements before a patient attempts to exit bed. Dramatically reduced incidents and freed nursing staff for higher-value care.
Neurological Biomarker Discovery#
Research organization needed to accelerate biomarker identification for epilepsy, Parkinson's, and other neurological conditions from months to days. We built comprehensive EEG analysis systems with novel feature extraction and ML pipelines. The engagement produced five patents.
Patentable Innovation#
Our work generates patents. The EEG engagement produced 5. We filed a novel patent for LLM-driven training optimization in 2024. For clients where technical differentiation drives valuation or competitive position, our track record demonstrates we consistently produce patentable work.
