Your AI is only as good as the data under it.

We audit what your data can actually support before anyone writes a prompt — and we'll tell you plainly if the answer is ‘not yet.’

Data-Layer FirstAudit Before BuildArchitect-Led

Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu, India — delivering for clients across the US and India.

Why most enterprise AI fails

The model isn't the problem. The data is.

Two years of enterprise pilots have proved that a convincing demo means almost nothing. They stall in the same place every time: the demo ran on a clean sample, and production runs on the real thing.

  • Duplicate records
  • Systems that disagree
  • Undocumented schema drift
  • Permissions nobody mapped
You cannot prompt your way out of a broken data layer.

So we invert the usual order. We audit what your data can actually support — and tell you plainly if the answer is “not yet.” Then we fix the foundation, and only then build on it. Slower to start, dramatically cheaper to finish.

Audit before build.

Fixed scope, fixed price. You get a decision, not a sales pitch.

Grounded and evaluated.

Every answer traceable to a source. Faithfulness measured before go-live.

Scores, not opinions.

“It works” isn't a deliverable. A benchmark is.

Engagement structure

Three steps. No open-ended discovery, no free pilots.

Step 1Start here

Data & AI Readiness Audit

Fixed scope, fixed price, 2–3 weeks.

Pricing: Quoted on enquiry, after a short scoping conversation.

You get

  • a data landscape map
  • a security & access review
  • 2–3 ranked AI use cases with ROI estimates
  • a reference architecture
  • a costed proposal for the pilot

Why it exists

Discovering a logic mismatch after the AI is built costs multiples of what it costs to find now. The audit is the cheapest risk you will ever buy.

Step 2

Paid Pilot

6 weeks. One use case. Capped scope.

Acceptance criteria defined as evaluation scores agreed up front — not “it works.”

Step 3

Production & MLOps Retainer

Ongoing monthly retainer.

Monitoring, evaluation regression, retrieval and prompt maintenance, model upgrades. Models and vendors change constantly; the retainer is what keeps a live system from quietly degrading.

We never build AI before an audit, and we never run a free pilot. Both exist to protect your budget as much as our margin.

How we work

We never build AI before an audit.

We never run a free pilot.

Acceptance criteria are scores, not opinions.

We'll tell you if your data isn't ready.

You own the code — including the day you leave us.

What we do

Three layers. The bottom one decides whether the top one works.

Data engineering first, AI on top of it, and the platform work that keeps both running in production.

Data Engineering & AI Readiness

  • Ingestion and pipelines
  • Data-quality remediation and deduplication
  • Unified data models and lakehouse architecture
  • Schema and integration mapping across systems that don't talk to each other
  • Data-quality monitoring
  • Security, encryption, and permission mapping
Architecture //
Data Engineering & AI Readiness

from pipeline import Source

# 1. Ingest & reconcile

src = (

Source.ingest(raw)

.deduplicate(key="entity_id")

.map_schema(to=unified)

.assert_quality()

)

src.load(lakehouse)

Applied AI & Retrieval Systems

  • Retrieval-augmented generation with hybrid search and reranking
  • Mandatory citations
  • Permission-aware retrieval
  • Agentic workflows with human-in-the-loop gates
  • Evaluation harnesses and faithfulness measurement
  • Observability and cost-per-query modelling
  • Model-agnostic architecture, so you're never locked to one vendor
Architecture //
Applied AI & Retrieval Systems

# 2. Retrieval with citations

def answer(q, user):

hits = hybrid_search(q, acl=user.permissions)

top = rerank(q, hits)[:5]

reply = llm.invoke(prompt(q, top))

return reply, [h.source for h in top]

Platform & Product Engineering

  • Golang, Python, Node microservices
  • AWS and Azure
  • Postgres, pgvector, MongoDB, Redis
  • Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD
  • Web applications — Next.js and React
  • Mobile apps — Flutter

Sometimes this layer has to come first: the application has to exist before there is data worth building AI on. We build that too — with the data layer designed in from day one, so the AI work later isn't a retrofit. This is also the layer that makes the first two shippable. Most AI vendors can prototype. Fewer can operate the thing at 3 a.m.

Architecture //
Platform & Product Engineering

package main

// 3. Ship & operate

func deploy() error {

svc := docker.NewContainer()

db := postgres.ConnectPool()

svc.Attach(db)

return svc.Scale("auto")

}

FAQ

The questions we actually get asked.

If yours isn't here, ask us directly — we'd rather answer it properly than guess at it in advance.

Can't we just use ChatGPT / Copilot for this?

For general knowledge, often yes. For questions about your data, a general model has no access to it, no permission model, and no way to cite a source. That's the gap we build into.

We need the application built before any AI. Do you do that?

Yes. Platform and product engineering — web, mobile and backend — is one of our three capability layers, and several of the systems in our Work section are exactly that. We build with the data layer designed in from the start, so adding AI later is an extension rather than a retrofit.

Our data is a mess. Should we clean it before calling you?

No — that's the engagement. Almost every dataset we've worked on was messier than its owner believed. The audit tells you exactly how messy, and what it costs to fix.

How do we know the AI won't make things up?

You don't take our word for it. Every answer is grounded in a retrieved source and cited, so you can check it yourself. Before go-live we measure answer quality against a test set built from your own material, and we walk you and your team through the results.

What does this cost, and how long?

The audit is fixed-scope and fixed-price, delivered in two to three weeks — we quote it after a short scoping conversation. Pilots run six weeks with capped scope. We quote production only after the audit, because quoting before it would be guesswork.

Who owns the code and the data?

You do. Direct access to repositories throughout. We architect model-agnostic, so you're never locked to one AI vendor — including us.

You're a small team. Why not a large consultancy?

Because you get the architects, not a pyramid. The people who scoped your system are the people who build it, and you can reach them directly.

What happens if the person who knows our system leaves?

Documentation-first delivery is why we work the way we do — architecture decision records, Swagger specs, and design documents written as we build, not afterwards. Every system has a second owner internally, and you hold direct repository access throughout. If we disappeared tomorrow, another team could pick up your codebase from the documentation.

Where are you based, and how do we overlap?

India, with a guaranteed minimum four-hour daily overlap with EST, PST, or CET.

Let's talk about your data.

Tell us what you're trying to build and what your data looks like today. If the honest answer is “not ready yet”, we'll tell you — that's what the audit is for.

Book a Data & AI Readiness Audit

We reply to every enquiry within one business day.

What to expect: a 30-minute call, no deck, no pressure. We'll ask what you're trying to build and what your data looks like today. If we're not the right fit, we'll say so on that call.
